Did a little fun experiment, tried to create 3 separate pieces of music that somewhat fit together. Came out as a kind of fusiony instrumental hodgepodge.
Yeah, Bass guitar is my struggle always...I have been trying to "carve out" some low freq/s as I'm usually overly boomy and mushy on my bass tracks imo....I was going for a epic reverby guitar sound in the 1st part, so it would hopefully contrast with the warmer up front strat part in the 2nd. Drums are from a loop set I cut up and move around, I did eq them a bit to get them "sharper"? Thanks for the listen, always appreciate your feedback!The lead guitar in the first section sounded cool. Even with all the big reverb. I'm not usually a fan of that. But it worked well here.
Not a big fan of the bass sound. The twangy "round wound" sound, to me, didn't fit the rest of the sound. It also lacked a little low-mid warmth.
The rhythm guitar sound and part in the second section sounded real cool. Loved the edge-of-breakup sound. Still didn't like the bass.
The bass tone fit the last section a little better. Great guitar playing in the last section.
Drums sounded OK, a bit "programmy." But OK. Snare sound was a little slappy.
Thanks man, yeah I think I may take it down a couple of notches :>)I like the "prog"-sound of this! Maybe A little less volyme on the delay for the lead guitar in the beginning but thats just my two cents. Cool!
