What's Up....

 

Cannot believe it's been nearly three months and I haven't posted an update on what's going on!

I haven't been slacking, promise! 

Been working on the ten and last song of my 6th album and it's going well but taking time. 

The song is very different to what the other songs sound like... it's more of a pop-tune.

The drums has got a handclaps and I've put the electronic sounding kick and snare drum, together with the hi-hat, ride and cymbal sounds from the Alesis Compact Drum 7 desktop box.

The bass guitar like on the other songs I played with my fingers not using a plectrum, which has produced a deeper sound. 

The guitar were recorded without effects and effects added, which allows more freedom to experiment with different effects and producing interesting sounds. 

There is a xylophone sound, which I played using the Alesis Compact Drum 7 desktop box, that has added a more mellow sound.

I have programmed a grand classical piano sound, further adding that pop-mellow vibe to the composition.  

Just need to arrange the congos and snare fills I played to be placed on the track, together with sound effects and then it's go for the vocals to be added.

Thank you to my fans and your patience and Keep on Rockin'!
