Today I opened up an old song on my DAW that I released last year. When I initially released it, my recording skills weren't very good, but they have improved steadily over the last year. I reworked many aspects, from drums, bass, general balance and quality. It was really great to see new life being put into a song that I had made. Before, when I heard it I always thought it could have more potential, but now I am fairly happy with the result.
Do you guys have old compositions that you have gone back and reworked on?  Here is the song: https://soundcloud.com/taka-perry/downfall Old Version (Comparison):

A slight digression but I went back to Gab's Modern Metal Collab and tried to work out and play the solo I composed for that the other day and I couldn't! Even some of the bits I could work out I would need to spend a while woodshedding again.

Nice new version mate! It like the overall feeling of this tune, and the new version sounds very good. I always get back to old ideas, sometimes unfinished songs and sometimes finished ones. It also happens with my band. In our last album, we recorded a song that has been created to the previous one and didn't find his place on that album.

QUOTE (Taka Perry @ Feb 3 2014, 06:01 AM)  Hey Gab, I liked the song, really laid back but full of energy! One day I will see you live  I think from a writers perspective, you can perceive a song you wrote to be really old, but in truth, it will be 'new' for a long time. I know that I've listened to many songs from 80's that were a new sound for me I agree. And I love that moment when we discover a new great song, no matter when it has been written. The feeling of those first plays is beautiful. -------------------- My lessons

Indeed Gabi and the urge to listen to it about 100-150 times that day, as well
