This song was started by me in June. After trying a few good singers, I decided to do a collaboration
with Steve Smith from the U.K. He wrote the lyrics and did all of the vocals. I did all of the music.
I think he hit this one out of the park!

That was great, Mike. I really enjoyed your track and Steve's lyrics and vocals.

Thanks FSB - very much appreciated.

ghost_of_strings wanted to try an online jam. Maybe he'll be recording soon
and posting some of his original music?

unfortunately I don't have much. I don't count the stuff where I'm just jamming over a backing track, and anything I made up has no vocals.

This is the closest I've got to a recorded original composition. I programmed the drum machine and played all instruments on these. Brace for overplaying:





BTW Mike that last song was fantastic. Very good writing. It has a hook. You could seriously sell that one. Image

thanks y'all! I just want to point one thing out you might have missed ...

On the second (more mellow) track, I started the drum beat with just "KICK, KICK-KICK, SNARE" for 16 measures...

*Then a ride cymbal is added for 8 measures
*Then a high hat is added for 8 measures
*Then percussion instrument 1 is added for 8 measures
*Then percussion instrument 2 is added for 8 measures
*Then percussion instrument 2 is removed
*Then percussion instrument 1 is removed
*Then a high hat is removed
*Then the ride cymbal is removed
... and you are back to just "KICK, KICK-KICK, SNARE"

The percussion parts are added one at a time and then removed in the reverse order. What you end up with is the illusion of dynamics on a drum machine. :mrgreen:

:lol: you can program in dynamics, but on my old drum machine that is a lot of work. It has the ability to set the volume for each drum pad, so I would assign the same sound (kick drum for example) to multiple drum pads at different volumes. Kind of hard to wrap your brain around. :shock:
