RECorded in the shade under the great tree that reigns in our backyard, I had this little blues lick and it fit with the words of Metaphorest's poem, so here's a rough little jam on that.
it's a blues in F major. i have no words for verses (yet), so i left little parts of this open to possibly in filled in with something. if one can think of or find words that fit the rhythm and mood.
happy REmixing <3
so here's the extended version of the REmix i made of Marke's blues riff.
i RE-RECorded the parts, added some bbbbass and added a middle part, based on Marke and Babbish's suggestion.
The format here is the main part 4 times through, then the middle part - lather, rinse, and repeat
The middle part's chords are C and G round a couple times.
Happy REmixing <3

ADDED WAY MORE OF YOU!!! As of today, I have added all current howlers to the mix, as well as boosted some levels and tweeked some timing issues. Feel free to keep howling though! I don't mind making new mixes. In fact, I look forward to it. As for me I will continue to work on the mix and instrumentation as I await your barbaric yawps.
I decided to fuck around with some blues scales and this is what I came up with. Definitely need some remixing on this one. Get on it.
I don't even know if this would even be considered Blues but this song kind of came from this Blues scale in A I was checking out. So that's why I called it a blues riff. Am I rambling?
I am completely stuck on what to do with this song; so I thought I'd throw it up here and see if you awesome musicians could help me out - if you need the stems, just lemme know; "ask and ye shall receive" I always say.
****Lyrics:
once pristine vials of nascent youth
now a broken heart i can't refuse
if i could hear you one more time
i'm sure i'd eventually change my mind
but you're dead and gone
where you belong
i think i'll let the ghosts of my past stay dead
the mirrors have become infused
with portraits of what was once you
they monitor my every step
with every condescending breath
but you're dead and gone
right where you belong
so why can't these ghosts of my past stay dead?
as the years disintegrate
i slowly forget the mistakes i made
just when i think i made it out
i see your face in every cloud
i thought you were dead and gone
right where you belong
but the ghosts of my past are resurrecting
I'm feelin it.
Ease up on the pains of being so caught up in chains
My shackles fit just fine at least I know they are mine
My heart is too heavy to burn
My heart is too heavy to burn.
Size me up to a paper cup
and I'll tell you what poison I choose.
What is winning to me
When I have everything to lose?
Repeat: Chorus
I'll drink my booze
while you pick my brain
as right as the rain.
No one knows the debts
that you pay when you
are paying them to a scroll.
Repeat: Chorus
When I heard this song by Almost Sound it reminded me of my favorite influence in music. Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do.
added some harmonica, maracas, and some cardboard box.
didn't care to adjust the tempo, just ran with Marke for this one :)
definitely going to mess around with this some more soon.
