Hey everyone, since watching the Beatles Get Back on Apple, I got extremely inspired to write music that was different than the alternative stuff I was doing before - the chords changes and landscapes created in the music of the 60's was something that, I'm ashamed to say, was new to me, or at least I saw it in a different light after seeing how similar the writing process of music from that time is to how I write today. One instrument, strum chords, hum the vocal melody that comes to mind, put together other instrumentation. But one difference from then to now was the chord types used and how they effect the changes in the tone of the music. I loved the idea of moving to 7th chords, diminished chords, and walking bass lines - lots of things that have disappeared from modern music, not entirely but surely much less so.
Anyhow, here is one of 10 songs/mixes I have been working on for the past year or two. I think they're in a state that can be more widely shared. This one, in particular, was created with the idea of a female lead vocal in a 50's jazz-night club style. I imagine a dark seedy bar, spotlight shining on the vocalist, and people wearing fedoras, smoking cigars
Please feel free to share what you think of the mix and quality of the recording, thank you
