Default My first ever Solo Release!

It's been 17 years since I first picked up a guitar. I've mainly played bass for that time, and never have written anything beyond a bunch of riffs and song ideas. I finally took the One Song One Month Challenge and wrote, recorded, mixed and mastered this all within a month!

Let me know what you think!

Sorry about that!

I don't sing, and couldn't find a vocalist to come in time to finish it. I tried to write it interesting enough to be ok with it vocals but still make room if I choose to add some later down the road.

Quite stinky! In a good way. Somehow you produced this thing to be both clean and dirty. I'd bet the voice that is needed on this piece would be yours. Congrats on good work.

Also, forgot to mention.

This was all done on a bass. The 'guitars' are a bass through an octave up pedal then into a overdrive. All the fuzz, swells, etc are all various effects using my bass.

I actually liked the way the guitars came out, I do want to add some more drive to them, but my OD was already cranked.

Great job, stink. I kind of agreed with the vocal comments after the first listen. I was thinking vocal/melody while watching the vid and I gotta say, it's good as is.

Congrats.

That's cool, since there's a lot of threads about guitars pitched down to replace bass.
Great work.
