Hounds Of Hell - SpyderX

Thank you for the kind words, my friend.

I try to "push the envelope" every now and then in order to keep my (limited) composition skills at their best. Sometimes it works out well (as on this track), sometimes it doesn't, but it's always fun!

Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed the track, and thanks for the listen and review ~ I really do appreciate it.

Peace,

Spyder

Thanks for the words of encouragement, Michael ~ I appreciate you taking the time to listen and review, bro.

You know, I always try to compose a track around a "hook" of some kind, something that sort of sticks in the mind of the listener, something that keeps coming back to them after the song is finished. If I accomplish that alone, then I'm a happy musician.

Peace,

Mike

Thanks for the listen and review, Neal ~ I really do appreciate it, bro.

The VSTi is a new Sugar Bytes instrument called "Guitarist". I have the demo version, which only has a Strat Sf file (the full version has four or five different guitars).

the pattern sequencer in this VSTi is simply amazing ~ VERY expressive and intuitive. I just played around for a few minutes and came up with a pattern I really liked, then I put the pattern through a few mutations (changing chord progs, timing, strum types, etc.) until I came up with four or five different sounding (but compatible, since they all started out the same) patterns.

The VSTi doesn't have many effects or amp sims to go with it, but I've got all that stuff anyway, so that isn't a major issue. For a demo guitar emulator it sounds pretty darn cool though, don't it?

Peace,

Spyder
