Hold A Place For Me

By Jai Cafarella on January 14, 2024 5:33 pm

Well, I tried to be sensibles... I actually started working on this weeks intended entry last Sunday because I finished last weeks with time to spare! That is, of course, not how things have panned out...

The intended song is coming together but it needs a little more work, so I called upon another vault idea from around 2000/2001. I had a basic demo from back then but the project file was corrupted many moons ago in a hard drive failure but I could remember the main melody and chords. As I worked on it though it evolved into something more involved than intended, so with little time left I began working on yet another song hmm

I'm not even sure how to feel about this one, hence the title, it very much feels like a placeholder while I work on the others *big ol' tired shrug*

Love the complementing lower melodies along with the higher melody. Cool rhythm section. This was fun, thank you for sharing!

really strong melody line, then the dark chord, and the title - just makes it very "end credits" - nice job!

(...but 'hold a place' where? Valhalla? Hell? The House Of Representatives? ...i suppose it all holds the same powerful feeling of loss and deterioration big_smile)...

a beautiful lament! heart

[Edit-without-actually-editing: reading this back, my comment sounds really dark, but i meant it as a great compliment with just a bit of my own kinda dark humor]

Are you trying to start a new '80s horror franchise? Cuz this is how you start a new '80s horror franchise

Major John Carpenter vibes

The theme of the night and all deeds done in it.
Sounds great.
