August 4, 201015 yr Well this is more than a guitar solo isn't it ? The drums can be louder in the mix, the rest is ok, you could expand this more than C#-E-C#-E, like A, F#, D etc and use more the conuter melody you use in the beginning and at the end. The Drums also, could have variations in the beat, anyway, this wasn't bad this way.
August 4, 201015 yr Well, it's not bad for an impro, but I would definitely not pass this a final product. The main figure of the impro kind of got boring after being repeated for Nth time, but not too bad. I liked the riff, too bad you can't hear it well behind the lead part. I really couldn't find any of the drums SyS was talking about.
August 5, 201015 yr There are drums in the mix, I don't think I imagined them, maybe your speakers are not good, try with headphones, if still not, I'd say you have been playing your drums too loud for too much time ... I remember my days in a band (~'99), the lead guitar say the others to play something over and over because he's going to "improvise", in these cases the rest of the band have to "create" a longer "loop" in order to make it less repetitive...

Man... this is weird... we are talking about the same piece, right? The one called Bee? I'm listening to this on a Genius 5.1 home cinema surround system, I'm pretty sure drums would be audible... Maybe the guy uploaded a different version after your initial listening?
August 5, 201015 yr Oou now you have make me worry about my mental state haha, because I keep listening the drums on the current file, Basically the snare drum is the only one kinda notorious, (on tempo 2&4) the Bass drum is too weak and the hats almost nothing (but the right channel), the hats do the same 1/8ths than the 5ths in the guitar2 so is not easy, I'll bring someone more to see if I'm the weird one...

Hah,it's ok Dan, you're not crazy, I heard them in the break of the guitars, but they are incredibly low in the mix, or something's wrong with my speakers.
