Today's song (instrumental) completes another album, Life Lines. I started this song with an acoustic guitar track. The guitar (capot'ed on the second fret) followed the progression: G, C, Am, C and D...with the chorus playing: Em, F#, Bm and A. I liked the contrast between the choppy drum lines and the sliding analog bass guitar, so I accented the verses with light synth sounds. The chorus section (with distorted guitars) helps break up the song...some good minor chords partnered with sliding octave notes (and a fuzzy synth). I also like how the drums cut in and out abruptly in certain places...keeps it interesting, and that's always a challenge when creating an instrumental.
The newest album will be available later tonight.
