My musical Creations (work-in-progress)

[Nick7]

Alright...



As I stated in an earlier thread, I've reached the pinnacle
in my guitar playing where my guitar teacher has run out of
techniques to show me, so we have focused on writing, lately.


I finished writing the song about a week ago, and I went in today
for my first session of recording. The lessons are only 30 minutes
long, so I only had enough to record about 1:20 of it, seeing as how
we layered the guitars and did about 4 takes on each riff.

So, just tell me what you think of it. It will sound much better
when my guitar teacher tweaks with the sound, and has his
bassist come lay some tracks down on it. Not to mention when
it's finished, which will be a repeat of previous riffs + a chorus
which has yet to be recorded.

Damn that's awesome. :thumb:

Can't wait to hear the final product.

[DawgFanatic]

even though thats not my kind of music, it sounded pretty good.....

[GRLSLUVFTBL2]

Sounds good, very Metalllica like

[Dream]

It's smooth, but it seemed like the tuning is very low. I've always said the low and dropped tunings just are excuses and hide-ups for what people can accomplish.

It's a nice grind riff though, if you ask me.

I play a 7-string most all of the time, now. Not because I just
like to be low, but I think it's more percussive than a regular or
dropped-D.

It's the very first demo with little to no tinkering done to the
sound, so as soon as we play with it, add in bass, etc, it should
sound like a song.

Thanks for everyone that took time to listen to it.

BTW, all members feel free to post any music you have recorded.

sounds great so far nick7

i used be the program director at a comm. college for 5 years
for the most part all metal but we had to please the masses with polka, jazz, etc
i just did it for kicks and loved the radio and local music scene
we had a huge listening area

are you making this into a song with lyrics or just keeping it an instramental
it sounds killer btw

you should check out some local colleges around your area cuz they usually will be willing to play you tunes. we were always asking bands to play some riffs for music beds for when we were talking.
its an easy way to get some more recognition for all your work and what not



ill be looking forward to your progress. keep it up.

My guitar teacher might do some vox
for it which would be amazing, cuz he
has a great Metal voice. (proof - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWYVN8MdvtI )

I'm only 15, so I'm not sure how much of a
difference that would make, but most people
assume that a 15-year old would be strumming
chords still, so take that for what you will.

he does have a great voice
sounds like you hooked up with a great teacher for music

even if your only 15, you can still find out some info on college stations around your area that play local music.
when the project is finished you can submit cd's to the station and they usually will get it on the airwaves for ya

your definately on the right track to a nice future if you choose music for it

Yeah, it should be done in about 2-3
weeks.

You Rock Nick!!
Im a classic rock guy myself, but that was great..
:clap:

[Dream]

Seven strings are great, what kind do you have? Any pictures man?

I really like what you did.

Are those just like computer drums though? I have some tips, but they're a little more personal maybe. Just talk to me if you ever wanna discuss music.

Oh hey, what's your set-up like right now? Axes, effects, amps, etc.

[Saddletramp]

its sounds good. not my style but you got talent.
