oh chorus is catchy as hell on @Bezzer 's one! I think I might have over egged mine

You dont make it easy do ya ;-).....

c# is a totally legitimate key!

He he ... we're both dicks clearly, I went for F# (mainly) :-)

F#m isn't bad because it's a like playing in A major and allows a few open strings.

That's awesome, guys, really catchy. The only observation I'd make is that it ends really suddenly, and out of character with the rest of the piece - I'd have preferred it to have had a more clear ending, with everything resolving round a final strummed chord, or something like that, whereas this feels more like you've run out of spa...

I found that too so there's a final beat 1 on my bass track so it jsut sounds like the drummer's forgotten

For ultra realism there should be extensive guitar noodling continuing long after the song has finished and the rest of the band are trying to talk

How are these tracks getting on?

Gone quiet hasn’t it? I can try and put some vocals to ours if someone is good with lyrics, because I’m bloody not!

It would be good to see it through. IIRC isn't @Emp_Fab good with words. He came up with some words for a Sealand composition challenge way back.

stratman3142

Any news?

poopot

Seems to have run out of steam.

I did have a crack over the top of @PolarityMan’s bass line, I can upload that if there’s interest?
