Vagenda is my ghost-name, and avatar through which I publish my artwork online, and through which I engage in online games.
I am a solo performer. I would love to have a band that could play all the things I write, but so far that has never been the case. Currently I live far from those I grew up with, and through the encouragement of the online gaming community, and friends on Twitch.tv, I've decided to start recording and publishing my music.
My first album, "The Nerado Black Sessions", is a labor of love, primarily covering songs that I wrote in the 1990's. Two cover songs on it were written by friends I grew up with, and one cover, for very special reasons, is Sweet Child O' Mine, originally by Guns N' Roses. Everything you hear on the album was written, arranged, performed, engineered, mixed, mastered, produced, and promoted by me (except for the writing and copyrights towards the three aforementioned cover songs, of course). I've done all the vocals with Vocaloid, and nearly exclusively used Hatsune Miku English v3. I've developed ways to enhance how human she sounds, and ways to affect her attack, pronunciation, and tension so to help her fit into some styles better than she could straight out of the Vocaloid software. It's been a great experience learning to program her. If anyone would ever like to try to sing in her place on something sometime, I'd be open to exploring that possibility.
