epii Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Here's an instrumental I wrote for no particular reason other than a challenge to write a guitar song completely with a virtual guitar in the Sonar 8.5 piano roll. I didn't allow myself to utilize a real guitar just for the challenge. Therefore I don't actually know if the guitar parts are in proper form, but it sounded good to my ears so I filled it in with an arrangement; drums, strings, etc. Hope it comes across well. Feel free to comment on any aspect of the piece.

mark styles Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Great piece.. Don't get the title.. Sometimes I start with a title, but as song progresses (especially instrumental).. I conjure up images, which reflect the piece. People will also take a chance to listen to, by the title alone. I'd expect some heavy death metal. or LSD freak out stuff. But, the piece is excellent and excellently constructed.. l GREAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epii Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 mark styles, Thanks for the kind words. I know the title doesn't really fit the vibe but it kinda stuck with me. Maybe if I ever write lyrics for it, the title will change. I don't care to write lyrics, unless they just come to me effortlessly... which doesn't happen often. All in all it's too much of a chore coming up with rhymes. I just love writing and arranging tunes. I don't know the last time I woke up in the morning without some tune rattling around in my head. Sometimes it's stuff I'm working on, sometimes it's an annoying TV jingle I've heard, sometimes a random song that I like or even one I don't like from a pop band or recording artist.. and on very rare occasions a piece of music I've never heard before like I'm listening to a radio. The human brain is a mysterious thing don't-chya know. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
