New Tunes
May 2nd, 2008 by mrhattyhat
The boys and I are working on some new music. These are still very early stage demos, so they’re pretty rough. What can you expect from original music produced at home?
Kyle comes up with most of the musical concepts. He’s about as prolific a songwriter as I’ve ever met. So these are his babies. Zach and I just fill in the texture with other musical stylings to go along with Kyle’s original concepts.
The first tune, This Love, is our latest and probably most complete as far as song structure and direction, though it’s still far from finished as to production. That’s Kyle on the vocals (obviously) and rhythm guitar. I’m on the drums and bass. Zach hasn’t made an appearance on this tune yet.
Next is our least developed tune, Drop A. It’s just an instrumental jam at the moment based on some wild tuning experimentation. As the title suggests, the low E is dropped all the way to A. Kyle is on the acoustic rhythm. Zach on melodic lead guitar exploration. I’m on bass. Drums are actually a loop in this one, but I have a drum line that I’ll eventually lay down for it.
Finally, Utah High is also pretty near completion as to structure, but far from being production ready. Hey, it’s a demo. Kyle once again on vocals and acoustic rhythm. Zach’s on electric rhythm and lead. I’m on bass and drums.
