▶ I revisited a Hispanic traditional classic; this time, with a little more confidence in my singing and a new video effect to experiment with!

🐾 That's right, everyone! I've returned with another cover of this song, and this time -- wait, hang on a second... *checks my YouTube channel*. Oh. It would appear as though I didn't actually make a video for my last cover of this song, or if I did, it isn't up anymore. I thought I did, honestly. Huh. Well, maybe that just goes to show how diffident I was about sharing that version of the song. It is apparently available on my Bandcamp and Soundcloud, so if you followed me there, you would have heard it. This version, however, involves so much confidence in my singing that, if you listen closely, you can hear me clipping my microphone because I've never sang loud enough to think I'd need to account for that! LOL But for real, though. I learned a little bit after the first take about singing better. I still have a long way to go, but I wanted to show off what I was really capable of by remaking this cover and really giving it my all. My favorite part, however, is the added 8th vocal that enters at the end. I wanted to add an extra, flashy harmony part and record that vocal without actually using a reference like I usually do. I was listening to the song and it just came to me! And, yes, speaking of an 8th vocal part...

🐾 In case anyone was wondering, each part of this song is sung by me. In total, there are 8 individual vocal parts... technically, I guess. As I mentioned before, I learned a few things, not just about singing, though, but about vocal mixing, as well. I do believe this was my first attempt at incorporating such a technique after learning about it. There are 6 uniquely recorded parts in this song. Two of which have been duplicated and panned to each side to give them a wider effect, making a total of 8 instances of my voice. I wanted to illustrate this endeavor in some way for this video. Personally, I thought about recording myself singing each part -- yet again -- and including the footage of that in the video, but 1) I didn't really want to record myself, 2) I didn't want to sing each part again, and, 3) I don't think I could have figured out how to inject the footage accurately using the video editing method I use (see below, if interested). So, instead, I decided to attempt a similar effect I've seen artists and various other video creators use in their videos or live-streams. FL Studio's ZGameEditor Visualizer is nice, but it is pretty limited. I am surprised I was able to remotely accomplish the effect I was going for -- dimming the character's image when the vocal track is silent and illuminating it when sound is processed (the size reacting to the audio effect is nothing new) -- but it didn't turn out how I wanted it and I couldn't find how to make it closer to my desire.

Lyrics:
Con mi burrito sabanero, voy camino de Belén
Con mi burrito sabanero, voy camino de Belén
Si me ven, si me ven,
Voy camino de Belén
Si me ven, si me ven
Voy camino de Belén

El lucerito mañanero ilumina mi sendero
El lucerito mañanero ilumina mi sendero
Si me ven, si me ven
Voy camino de Belén
Si me ven, si me ven
Voy camino de Belén

Con mi cuatrico voy cantando, mi burrito va trotando
Con mi cuatrico voy cantando, mi burrito va trotando
Si me ven, si me ven
Voy camino de Belén
Si me ven, si me ven
Voy camino de Belén

Tuki tuki tuki tuki
Tuki tuki tuki ta
Apúrate, mi burrito
Que ya vamos a llegar
Tuki tuki tuki tuki
Tuki tuki tuki tu
Apúrate mi burrito
Vamos a ver a Jesús
