i have this song that i have been working on for a while and i made a solo for it finally , but i dont know what chords should back the solo , because the solo is not related to my main riff too much . I want a backing that emphasizes chord tones ,but when i plan it out that way i just get lost and it seems like there is too many chords in the backing . i have provided two rough takes of my solo if that helps . Im not too great at guitar but i love making my own songs and id appreciate the help. Thank you very much =]

There are zillion options for progression here, it's in a key of Em.
I can give you few ideas but I would need drums (simple beat would do) along with your solo to point at bars/beats and chords changes. Can you put a loop and then play your solo?

yeaa i realized the issue with the timing , i ran out of my trial periods with all my drum programs =P , so i had to find a drum track online so this might be a little faster , i might have to invest in a drum program so i can actually finish the song once i have all of this down

Ok, you played some interesting rhythmic parts in your solo
but I managed to to realize the flow of few chords that might work with it. Try this, Em for 1 bar, Am for 1 bar, C for 1 bar and Bm for 1 bar. It's pretty simple progression imo tho you can make it even more simple by using C chord for 2 bars and throwing Bm chord out. Try it and see how it sound to you. : -------------------- Youtube

Timing issues appear in the bar 4, and onwards. I think it is more effective to simplify those licks so you can play them comfortably in time, then to play many notes that are not perfectly in timing.

QUOTE (ErosDervishi @ Aug 19 2009, 12:44 PM) thanks for the help guys , i think after i put the chords i might slow some stuff down , and get the timing rite , maybe when i get this done i can finally finish my full song , thanx again for all your help. You're welcome. And yeah, you should make whole backing with groove and chords and then readjust your solo a little, just to get more flow in it.
