What You Want

By Pescadito on February 18, 2024 10:08 pm

Hi all!

Happy to share this with you all! From last week I have been playing around with C open tuning on a classical guitar.
Somehow I kept playing until other ideas came out until I tried to move the capo around and I started playing some chords in a Eb tuning. this thing came out.

Then I had the chorus repeating in my head: "What You Want!". I found some other lyrics and put the parts together.

I recorded: classical guitar, bass, electric guitar and vocals. The drummer is Rose from GarageBand.

Again I made this on GarageBand, with not so much pro mixing and mastering, as I am still in learning process. I tried to add few effects and compression here and there, and checked volumes and pan.

I hope you'll like it.

Still not super happy with the final result (some transitions are not so smooth) but well... that's it for this week!

Maaan great work big_smile a full pop rock song! Love the breadth of the composition - it has all the elements of a good song, feels complete. I would say what stands out the most is the super catchy chorus and voices heart love those a lot!

I love the spoken parts too big_smile It reminds me of someone... can't put my finger on it...

The classical guitar is so dreamy, I love how well you play around it with the other instruments and let it shine. Rose does well here too smile Levels and all sound great.
