Dave is one of my faves. I have also read his book and have watched all the references you gave. Great to see/hear the inspiration applied and the final outcome, Foo-esque for sure.=D I would imagine Dave would be happy to see his words in action like this. Keep going, keep posting. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for creating this, yr helping artists and that is wonderful. Keep going man yr onto something IV been fascinated with for 45 years. Great work man. ✌️✌️✌️
Your demo is all about you. I know its just an example and it seems like you did a great job of taking cues from DG for the music and style. However IMHO the best of his lyrics are never first person. But then maybe I missed the point. You did say the inspiration for the lyrics was DG's autobiography. Which of course by design is first person. It seems very challenging to write a 1st person song. Very few listeners are interested in hearing about songwriters that lack existing and predefined fame. So first person lyrics seem tough to write if the object of the exercise is to write a great song that people want to hear and share within their social circles.
I think you nailed the structure of the song for sure, liking those guitar bits too. Great job and great video as always! One thing to consider is getting a different VST for drums, I think that'll take your production to the next level. Although they never tend to be cheap, personally I use Addictive Drums (you can hear it on all of my songs) great plugin 😊
Great stuff! At some point could try using KLF's book "The Manual: How to Have a Number One the Easy Way", from 1988. Chumbawamba and Klaxons are meant to have used it to write songs, and it has pretty specific instructions. It's out of print, but easy to find by googling.
