In this video, I go through the guitar, bass, drums and synth writing for my next track The Divide. #musicproduction #composer #progressivemetal #guitar #riff #bass #slapbass #songwriting #argentmetal #synth
Off to a great start! Here's an idea to experiment with, try it, trash it if it doesn't work... Right now, the guitar, bass & synth are al kind of following the same melody. Maybe try adding a second guitar (separate it with the panning of course), and have it do a constant one-note E pedal tone that matches the drum rhythm. Might help fill the sound more? Let me know what you think. 🙂
Just had another idea along the same line...let's say the riff repeats 4 times, maybe do the first 2 without it, and add it the 3rd time through to help the sound build?
