A downloadable project

I followed Theme 2 for this music jam. I started the 24th of March and set down the drums. On the 25th, with the help of my friend Felipe R., recorded the all three guitars and the bass*. Finally, did as much mixing and mastering as I could on the 30th right before submission. 

I really really would've liked to record another bass track with more detail and nuance in the notes played, but my days have been busy. As well as maybe another set of recordings for each guitar to pan left and right (and not drown the lead in so much reverb haha). 

In hindsight, I would've recorded the guitars completely dry and set a day just for FX and fine tuning.

* On this day, while recording the guitars, Felipe realized that the drums and chord changes did not flow well. We decided to remove a verse. So instead of, verse 1 -> verse 2 -> bridge -> chorus, we ended up with verse -> bridge -> chorus. Overall, we removed about 16 bars, but the track flows so much better.

I like the mix and the sound. I can't complain about the bass. :) A really different part (with more variation) could make this a bit more spunky. But still great work!

I agree! Variation in notes and sounds would've added so much to this track. Thanks for the feedback :)
