Thought I’d add some falsetto, a bit of guitar solo-ing finally (!) and a bit of emotion through the voice…

It is also the debut of my new guitar - it makes a fantastic sound :D

What You Wish For

Of course there are the usual problems (my guitar playing is not fantastic yet), and it feels like it could go longer, but it’s 10 PM and I need to start work tomorrow… It’s for this reason I didn’t include my trombone but eh, them’s the breaks.

I just completed it today with a sore throat, so if you notice the high notes are a little flat, that’s probably why ;)

Kickin’ Back

Everything was produced in FL Studio. I recently kitted out my office/studio with a new Shure SM58 mic and stand so it has really helped with the quality of voice and trombone recording! My Edirol UA-4FX USB soundcard is also excellent as it gives me all the inputs I need - this is the first time I’ve really done anything more than play back music with it!

This song is the first full-length track I have composed (though I have done some mini jam tracks which were quite frankly very bad a few years ago).

Derek de Sousa of Guitar Player Studios has offered to cover the bass part for this song so there may be an additional version up here soon. Enjoy!
