GuitarJesus,

Nice shredding, your lead fit perfectly..

Kid of a jazzy fusion metal vibe goin on...

Very cool...


Was that all one take?
 
Yes one take.


I just listen to the mp3 on the computer to get the feel of the song, and what scale to use.

A little bit of compression in your bass chain would take care of the volume spikes for the most part.It didnt bother me at all......it's not like it was all over the place....it was pretty much level for the most part.It's hard to add a part and mix and mix it "on top" of a stereo track anyway.

Killer bass chops man.

I listened to your songs on your web sight.

Nice. Are you singing, playing guitar. Nice chops man.
 
Agtronic,

OK, here's my take on it:



about a minute or so from somewhere in the middle.

guitarjesus, I can't help pointing out that you use the word "sight" (as in vision, something that you see, "a sight for sore eyes") instead of "site" (as in location, "the site of the 1980 Winter Olympics")...

It's a web site, not web sight.
 
I was never a good speller.

Engineering, Math, music.............Yes.
 
guitarjesus,
Thanks....yes thats me on everything EXCEPT the middle solo of "I cant complain".Thats my younger brother.I taught him everything he knows.:D ;)

Nice job on the solo over agtronics loop.I still find the loop a little too restrictive for soloing more than 30 seconds.
 
The way I see it, you play electric guitar to fit the rhythm.

In this case I did what I had to do. If there where key, chord, changes then you play accordingly.

Oh,I agree with you 100%.It's just that the solo is not interesting after 60 seconds or so.It's like singing verses to a song over and over without a chorus/bridge/hook etc. ever taking place.

I find this is what really gave me the idea. You can't just play all your favorite licks one after another with this kind of track, you really have to come up with all kinds of different ideas so that the 3 minute solo is not boring and repetive. I have a great difficulity trying to be creative, I always subcontiuously play the same thing over and over. But with this loop, I found myself trying all kinds of new ideas and it really helped me "come alive" on the guitar, and I really impressed myself. It was a great feeling to be playing solos and it was just coming out on its own, and it wasn't a known "lick" that I always play. I don't even know what scale I'm using, all I know is that it's in E (I think). I wish I knew theory. :(

AlChuck, very nice work, but you gave up early. ;) And if I'm not mistaken I heard a bad note somewhere in there ... Just playing with you! Very nice work, I like the delay, it makes the guitar blend in very nicely.

Anyways, I'm glad everyone's having fun. :) Let me record something. I'll do it tonight!

Just one? ;)

I was being nice about it. ;) No seriously, it's really cool to see people participating! Doing this kind of thing with music is so much cooler than doing it with photoshop. You have a more "real" product at the end, and everyone feels good about it. I dunno, maybe it's just me, but I find it really cool to be able to lay down a rhythm track and have someone I have never seen or met put down a bass track and a few others put down solos. I'm freezing my ass off here in Montreal (-45°C with windchill) and some of you guys are in your t-shirts adding guitar solos from halfway across the continent. :)
 
I'm downloading now, as soon as I do I'll import it to my AW16 and post.

I like it. Very tasty especially rythmically (sp?). Too short man.

so that's why it sounds like you're wanking with one hand and playing with the other.

They don't call it "slapping the bass" for nothing:D
