Weeks

I've been a bit frustrated with my electronic/synth-based tracks, often giving up on them before submitting. So, I'm going to try more guitar focused stuff for a bit, and hopefully find time to really improve my playing.

Still using the M8 for drums, and tracking the guitar into, and mixing.

The A section is in G/Em, but the B section adds a flat 5, giving it a pretty different feel. Most of the guitar uses a Red Panda Raster delay, which is adding an octave above and below, making it sound more like a doubled part than a delay.

The song only has an A and B section before ending. Next time I'll need to put some more time into the initial structure and percussion - it's hard for me to go back and change those things once I've gotten too far into the details, especially when it's later in the week and I've already heard the song too many times.

Man I love the guitar tone here! Really beautiful harmonies and the little grace notes. It's doing it for me today! Rhythm section is pumping along. Whole thing is really great, great mix and great variations later in the track.

Getting the structure done is super difficult! Great track!

Diminished chords are always a spicy choice, but I think you made something exciting with it
