ABOUT ME
Hello! My name is Chae Sira. This isn't my real name, though. It was given to me by a Korean penpal! Depending on what name you choose to go by, I will either go by my middle name, Kahirah, or my given name, Sira, for our duo. I'm a 17 year old girl, living in the hot and sticky state of Florida. I've had an interest in writing since I was four years old, and an interest in music since i was about seven. I am open to all kinds of music- rap, rnb, reggae, blues, pop, rock, alternative, kpop, etc. My personal style of music is kind of an indie, sometimes pop, sometimes lofi style. I have tried (poorly) to play piano and now I'm embracing my inner flower child with my ukulele. More than that, I like to sing and rap. Even more than that, I like to write. Currently, I am in school + I have a job so I'm all over the place. Nevermind that, though. I want to know about you!
AUDITIONS
I would like to be a singing and/or rapping duo with a male partner. The reason I ask for male partners is because my voice is naturally soft and somewhat deep(ish), and I would like someone who could completely contrast with me. I know I could find a girl who could do that, but I've always wanted to perform duets with a guy. I never have before.
I would like us to be long term partners. We can make covers of any song (I can do English and Korean or Korean translated into English.) and eventually we could possibly write our own songs. I have a lot of free instrumentals saved haha. I also have a list of possible names for our duo, so bring your ideas too! We don't have to be super active all the time- especially because people have school and work and other stuff- but I would like to keep in touch because I like having friends lol.
Make sure you introduce yourself well in your auditions. I want to know the personality I'll be working with! Before you continue to auditions please keep in mind these following things:
:: I'm a teenager! I have parents who kick me off the computer or don't allow me to download certain apps or do certain things. Please be understanding if something happens to limit how much I can be involved in a specific moment.
:: I am limited on technology! As much as I would love to, I don't have a fancy recording studio with top of the line equipment. But! I do have a Scarlett 2i2 Studio set and a mac computer with the free versions of GarageBand and iMovie. This is set up in my family computer room, so I have to wait until everyone is out of the room and I have quiet so I can record. Please understand this too!
:: I'm not always just about business. I would like to be your friend and get to know you! I hope that someday we'll be able to drop our aliases and be more than just a bunch of aspiring artists. Making internet friends can be tough, especially with all of the weirdos out there, but I want this to be an enjoyable experience! So even if our duo doesn't go as planned, we are all still good friends!
Okay, one more thing! I would just like to make sure you have access to these following things before you audition. They aren't all required and set in stone, but should we become partners, it would make everything run more smoothly! That being said, please have:
:: AN EMAIL :: Gmail is preferred, as we may use Google Hangouts if we decide to video chat. We could also use the site Rabb.it to video chat while watching things together. This will also help with more official correspondence, such as sending recordings, videos, keeping up with the channel, etc. This can change depending on what is available to you. I will give you my email if you ask
:: DISCORD :: I'm still trying to figure out how to work this myself, and it's pretty cool!
:: A KAKAOTALK ID OR SNAPCHAT :: I have both, but I prefer Kakao becaue it has more features. Also, since I don't have discord on my phone and I don't constantly check my email, it would be the easiest way to keep in touch. Let me know if you have a different idea for some sort of method of communication. With these we can set up group chats to get to know each other and talk about anything dealing with the group. I just thought it was easier to keep up with than having to constantly check your email!
:: A DECENT METHOD OF RECORDING :: This, you need to have. Please have a mic that allows us to hear you clearly without any interference or background noise. This is important for recording songs! We don't want to have any awkward quality covers. Also, if you have a little experience with audio mixing and video editing that'd be great. you don't have to at all, but my knowledge is limited, so I warn you that our aesthetic will be very simple if you leave it to me. Honestly, I prefer a simple aesthetic, but I'm open to hearing and seeing all ideas!
I think that's pretty much it! PM me if you have any additional questions. I'm sooo excited to meet you amazing singers. Every audition is valued and greatly appreciated. Happy recording! ♡
