Does anyone using a drum program (e.g., MT; SD; EZ) just start a groove and jam along on guitar (or whatever inst) hoping a good song will somehow pop out the other end?
I get lost sometimes because I'll want to add more grooves and that just puts the brakes on the whole creative process. So I have an idea I haven't tried yet. I'll record 4 or 5 drum tracks.. #1 will be the first lonely groove. #2 will add the bridge or chorus. #3 ... etc... Then I'll quickly solo them in progression as I feel it coming together. Or even line them all up on one track and loop it - that might work better so I won't have to stop at all.
I get a lot of drum grooves popping into my head throughout the day and (mentally) throw in guitar and bass, maybe a vocal or at least some kind of melody. These drums just trigger all kinds of compositions of just about all genres of music.
