Hello everybody!

Welcome to my new GMC collaboration. This one is based on the style of Metallica and once again our founder Kristofer Dahl is already working on lyrics and vocals for this one!!

As we want to make this song a cool as possible we would like to invite everybody to join and record your solos, guitar arrangements and ideas over the track to use it for the final mix.

Backing track: Attached File  Metallica_Style_Collab.mp3 ( 1.82MB ) Number of downloads: 376


Tempo: 116 bpm

Key and Scale choices:

The song has 5 sections: Intro (00:00 to 00:18), Verse (00:18 to 00:34), pre-chorus (00:34 to 00:43), chorus (00:43 to 01:00) & bridge/riff (01:00 to end). All parts are in E minor except the pre-chorus in which the song modulates to F#m. This pre-chorus is a bit complex because it also includes the b5 note, so adding it to the Pentatonic minor scale can be a good idea. Beginners can skip this part.

The most obvious scale choice is E pentatonic minor or E blues scale everywhere except over the pre-chorus where you should switch to F#m pentatonic.







Finally, you can also use minor scales (E minor over most of the parts and F# minor over the pre-chorus)







IMPORTANT INFO About files required:

In order to make the things easier for compiling takes and mixing I need that each participant shares 3 files:

- Audio file with the mix of the backing and your guitar.
- Audio file only with your guitar (If possible this audio should have the same length than the mix version)
- Video of you playing the solo, and if it's not possible a picture. (Mp4 format if it's possible)

The best way to share this is compressing in a zip file to be downloaded from here or using sharing service as dropbox, wetransfer, and copying the link here.

If you decide to share your files using soundcloud please remember to "allow downloads".

Thanks!


DEADLINE: June 25th

I have been discussing with Darius to possibly do a slightly more jam/playing oriented collab next. We should launch something in the next days. Feel free to suggest!
