Chapter 22 - recording
Soon enough, with the help of the group, I finished the songs and the weekend arrived.
We had 2 days to sort out the music and vocals for 9 songs - bring it on!
We agreed to use the first day making the soundtrack, and the Sunday would be used to record our voices.
Hoseok actually had a lot of talent on the drums, and we smiled at his eagerness to play.
We fiddled with the sound, deciding what sounded best.
In the end, we had an hour to spare, so ended up recording "no more dream" vocally.
Everyone was so in character, and Namjoon was almost growling his part! It sounded awesome!
We had to get Jimin to restrain J-Hope as he kept doing aegyo in the sound room when he got too excited and it came out really loud through our headsets.
Finally, our first song was done, and we all got into our position for the dance to do it properly for the first time.
When the music ended, tears of joy filled my eyes and they teased me for getting emotional.
I also transferred the completed song and the other backing tracks onto my phone so we could use them in the dance room.
"You all did great today guys. See you tomorrow" the recording guy smiled.
We all began to walk home.
"THIS IS SO FRIKKING COOL!" Jungkook laughed, jumping up and down.
We laughed.
"I'm surprised how much we actually got done!" I smiled.
"Yoongi! I can't believe how amazing your songs are! They're so catchy!" Jin chuckled, humming his parts.
Suddenly, Namjoon chocked a little and had a small coughing fit.
"Hyung? You ok?" I asked, handing him a drink which he gladly accepted.
"Yeah... Thanks." He smiled, but I was suspicious.
"You sure?"
"Yeah. Come on let's get home. It's cold.
-the next day-
I arrived at the studio nice and early so I could help set up the Mics.
Hoseok and Jimin arrived together, closely followed by Jungkook, Taehyung and Jin.
Namjoon came late.
We all teased him a little, but soon got on with work.
It didn't take long to realise something was wrong.
I left my recording booth and made my way down the corridor to Namjoon's one. I knocked on the door and entered.
Inside, Namjoon stood by the mic.
"If your unwell, you should go home." I said, and he turned round a little.
He was very pale, and all morning his voice had been hoarse. I placed my hand on his forehead and he was burning up severely. He must have caught a fever when walking in the cold.
I spoke through the mic in namjoons booth that was connected to the other headsets.
"Namjoon is sick. Meet in the main room now." I instructed them.
I gave Namjoon my hoodie to keep him warm and we went to the cafe.
Jin looked at him, checking his temperature like a real mom!
Jimin spoke with the recording assistant and he booked us in for next week, so we took Namjoon home.
He kept insisting it was just a cold, but he was very ill and definitely couldn't sing, so we made sure he was ok at his home before we let him rest. His older brother thanked us and said that he would look after him.
It was typical that a singer/rapper lost his voice on the day of recording!
Oh well, there was next weekend.
