  • Red&Grey (instrumental)

    Hey all!!!


    PLEASE READ BEFORE LISTENING!

    Its been years since i have posted anything, especially in this section.

    this is a project that my friends and i started, its purpose was to write a progressive metal/fusion,,,whatever.... song and send it to one of our favorite guitarists and ask him to play a solo over a certain part of it. He agreed but it will take some time from his end. so we also made a shorter version of the song that we could listen while he is doing his part-


    Note that I ONLY PLAY A SHORT SOLO, everything else is done by my friend Raimond Virsa. Due to some complications we had to use programmed drums ( We live in Estonia so no big surprise there).



    Lastly i didnt want to make a flashy solo with lots of fast licks, since i knew that Raimond and Eric Glass will probably add enough fast lines (i hope Eric will do so as well) and i didnt want the final version to sound like a lick competition ( which i would have lost. So i kinda just went with the flow and tried to make it go somewhere comp. wise.

    I used Endrik s Mark III for my solo sound, but what you will hear doest do this great am justice, E himself was not there and i still cant dial those things in . The biggest regret is that i should have turned the gain down quite a bit, since some of the exotic sounding runs that start from low e string, sound just like muddy 2 note per string pentatonics which they are not.


    enough of Excuses Here is the song. Name Red&Grey.


    If possible please don/t use laptop speakers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My solo-- 03.34 - 04.23

        I'm like what I'm hearing but I could use a cowbell, I need more cowbell.

        Honestly, its good stuff. I enjoyed it alot.
        Very melodic which I dig.
        Peace, Love and Happieness and all that stuff...

        I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.

        Yes, there's a bee in the pudding.
