Recently the Holy Spirit has led me to record Catholic songs with a vintage vibe (viz. before everything became hyper-electronic and hyper-produced, meaning real musicians on real instruments). If you enjoy vintage music but want a Christian message you might enjoy my music. Grand central station for my music is www.FatherMaxMusic.com (you'll find links there to YouTube, Spotify, etc.).
Fr. Maximilian, these songs sound very good. Sung with passion and artistry. Did you use some classic analog equipment to record?
SiteGround recently switched this website to a different web hosting space – from Apache to NGINX. It has caused some problems with serving up certain files with spaces and caps. I noticed that A Battle Cry Goes Out.mp3 wasn't playing in the MP3 player so I re-uploaded it as A-Battle-Cry-Goes-Out.mp3. I hope to have a fix soon. I also just updated the text editor module and for some reason it is causing a YouTube URL to not play inline. So I replaced your YouTube URLs with YouTube embed code.
You really went the extra mile for my little post! May God reward you...
I'm using all digital recording equipment (much of the software is able to replicate that classic sound - compressors, amp simulators, etc.), but the vintage vibe comes primarily from the fact that I'm recording actual instruments (real drums, guitars, etc. and featuring others on real instruments like saxophone, harmonica, flute, etc.) and another reason is that I stopped listening to rock music (Christian or secular) when I entered seminary in the late 80s - so my playing, singing and song writing all flow from my influences in the late 70s and early 80s and I model my mixes off those vibes (i.e. Supertramp, Steely Dan, the Eagles, the Little River Band, Hewey Lewis and the News, etc.).
I have a new CD coming out here in few days. I hope to return and post some links to that album and the video for the title track which premieres on Thursday night, 9pm ET: https://youtu.be/UQHLN2ZScdY
Engagée dans la diffusion de la musique catholique, je cherche à partager des chants pour contribuer à l’œuvre d’évangélisation selon mes humbles moyens. Que Dieu veille sur chacun de nous !
I've written a Mass setting, got it approved by the USCCB, several psalm settings, and a couple years of gospel acclamation verses. Looking for a place to publish my works.
As a Catholic songwriter and singer myself, I want to contribute to the community and receive info on how to promote good Catholic songs to a wide audiences.
I am Catholic and a piano teacher. The Catholic Church has the most beautiful treasury of hymns.
I want my students to study hymns. Also, I want to memorize the words of some of the hymns that are in Latin and having access to the sheet music will help with that. Thank you.
I'm a music director at a Cathedral and a composer. I would love to hear other composers, music, ideas, etc. Additionally, I'd like to share my own music.
I am searching for a hymn sung on line in Canada - when I am confined to home and watch mass. I am a piano player for many years and would like to find the musical score.
I have written and recorded about 70 songs over the last two decades. I would like to share them with a larger audience. Thank you and God bless your work Ron St Martin
I am a Catechist that believes that religious song is the prayer of the angels, that lifts the soul. What better way to get a child to feel the present of God's peace
I am a practicing Roman Catholic always trying to increase my faith and holiness. I like Christian music particularly prefer Catholic Christian when I am driving or at home completing tasks.
