Without the bass player this song falls to pieces multiple times :) [MEDIA]
Why does he play the bass when he could just use samples instead :winker:
That's why it's useful to keep a notebook for arranging purposes. As a one man setup it's easier to do, but I always chart my chords and scales,...
When they mention the chord they are talking about the root note, 3rd & 5th. So the root note for C maj is C and for C min it's also C, but the...
Love the portmanteau, and it's a good way to view the problem :keys: :metal:
A lot of people read these forums, so I think it is valid to include information about other possible solutions and different ways of doing...
They shouldn't die, but they do need to fit your required usage. You can't phone the guy up and ask him to play it a little differently. I'm not a...

I've borrowed a lot of things from music I don't like. For me composition is separate from arrangement and production. I like the idea of...
Probably electricity. Without it we'll be back to piano and acoustic guitars.
An interesting discovery: [MEDIA]
It's specifically about adding some dissonance and shaping the dynamics to add variation between the various sections, so that a 4 minute song...
Very good track, well done :wink: I'd recommend giving the Pixies a listen, as they have a few compositional and performance tricks that can add...
Autotune is great for people who can't sing. It's the equivalent of a piano roll for those who lack musical talent. I think it's good that even...
I like it, my old customised templates still work, and 3rd-party plugins look much better now!
