Hey GMC!
I have been working with Ken behind the scenes to come up with a new collab concept! We wanted to make sure there was something in it for everybody - so we ended up with a track I would describe as Vai-meets-Slash-meets-GMC 🤘😅 Vai_meets_Slash_collab.mp3 ( 2.16MB ) Number of downloads: 413 The idea is that we record over whichever section(s) we like. I will then mix it all together and try to add some vocals as well. Here are the sections: 00:02 - 00:23 C Lydian 00:24-00:44 C - Ab - F (power chords) - try C minor pentatonic, C aeolian 00:44 - 01:04 Abmaj7 - Gm7 - Cm11 - F9 - try C minor pentatonic, C Dorian, C aeolian Tempo: 92 bpm * For best results, please send me your guitar only file without any reverb or delay * To facilitate my mixing, please send me your track starting from "point 0" (ie from the first count-in) Looking forward to hear what you think! ----- >>Listen to the FINAL RESULT! Be sure to listen to it in the GMC Radio Player as well. This post has been edited by Kristofer Dahl: Aug 27 2021, 09:59 AM |

In this mix I have extended the last chorus.
Aug20.mp3 ( 2.81MB ) Number of downloads: 47 I also tried using soprano voice as backing with the hard panned delay Ken suggested (01:07), but I couldn't really make it work (so it's on low volume in this mix, I might remove it). I also tried a low octave 'monk choir' dub on the first chorus (00:26), but same for this one. For the chorus at 00:26 I tried many different type of lead vocals, but it seems the only ones I have control over are either super soft in my natural range or the falsetto/soprano thing. Since I wanted something powerful I didn't have much of a choice. We can pretend it's my wife singing 👀 The chorus at 01:07 works I guess, but the vocals are pretty soft. I think this arrangement calls for a powerful chorus and increase in dynamics. I used to have a barking type of voice that would work in high pitch, but I am having problems using it now. I never had any good technique with it, so I think I am currently simply not up for the dB levels of screaming which it required. Or maybe I’d have to be really pissed 😅 |
