Well, I have to be honest it definitely isn't a one shot play through. That's the beauty of the recording studio, ha ha! Anyhow I really appreciate the comment bro and suggest you check out some of my other tracks if your hungry for more guitar based stuff.
He did the mash, the moster mash :p Was this recorded at the crossroads? Maybe Satan on drums. Nothing like the blues neo! I need to pick a monster for my Halloween track this year, already had Rotting Horde the zombie blues band lol!
I figured the Halloween thread would entice a lot of you guys out of hiding ! Yeah its always fun and I know you dig it for sure. I have done Zombies, Frankenstein, Demons and now The Wolfman, so I'm making my way through the list! I actually started on a rockabilly Vampire thing but also had the main riffs for this that just took off quicker. I really wanted to do something more campy, with some old classic movie lines. If I get the time I may still try to finish it. If not I will have a good start for next year.
Wonderful track!
Very bluesy: I like a lot the guitar and bass parts. Very inspired.
...and I totally agree on what you said on the Wolfman: he is a sad and lonely man who does not even deserve the right to shed tears, because he is a fierce creature and nobody will ever imagine how deep his feelings are.
So he goes on singing the blues and playing his bass! ;-)
Take care.
Yours sincerely, MrWolf
Hey Mr.Wolf, I figured you would dig this track man! BTW, did I hear you ran amuck in Kent a while back? Dont worry, your secret is safe with me bro. (Ha ha, Thanks)
Nice work! Love the atmospheric intro. This is perfect for a party mix,Solid blues track holds it together nicely! Also i have a soft spot for werewolves \m/
Yeah the werewolf is a strange cat, er I mean dude, but hes definitely cool and the chicks dig him. That is until he takes a bite out of them! Lol...Thanks FD.
I think Ymir just ripped the top of my skull off and touched my brain! No wait... it was only Neo with his magical twanger. Man, that was truly inspirational, David Gilmour would be proud!
I’ve liked Meshuggah since their beginning. Still do. In fact I dig the whole Djent genre. I love the broken rhythms and f’ked up time signatures. It’s not a real melodic genre, per se. but the percussive assault is one to really dig. Personally, I would go as far to say that Sepultura started that whole genre with “Roots, Bloody Roots”. They just weren’t using the 8string god sent from....wherever. But judging by the darkness of this tune, I’d say some suburb of hell.
Personally, I would love to get lost in the darkness of this tune. That shit is, for a lack of better terms when describing darkness, quite pleasant.
I’m not going to go into a Static sized breakdown on this one, I will say that the production is awesome. The tones you managed to achieve are true to the genre. Damn. I wish I could play live instruments, man. This makes my latest one sound like chicken scratch, dude. The layering is impeccable. The drone in the background is sitting perfect in the mix. It’s loud enough to hold everything together, and fill the blanks where it could become boring, (to the ears of those who don’t appreciate the genre), but it’s not so loud that it’s distracting. The sustained notes in the leads really work. I’ve always been a fan of that. Sustained, slow hand leads over choppy, chuggy rythyms.
Yep. You got yourself a winner, here, bud. I fav’d it so I can download it later. This one is going on the playlist.
Hey Aaron, thanks so much for the comment man and I do apologize for the delayed response. Yeah man this one was quite a bit of work to get worthy. You know when your working on a track you listen to it over and over so much. I actually had to stop working on this for awhile because I got to where I think it was effecting me psychologically. Not sure if its because of the dark nature of it or simply being that I was a bit exhausted. I hope its the latter ! But its so weird that right after working on this the equipment I used to make it was stolen, so uh, yeah I took it as a sign and layed off the dark stuff for a while. I do love Meshuggah and progressive metal. Its so heavy, I totally dig it!
yep just downloaded this awesome tune!!!!Man you are fridge talented!!!!!I love your music.I love your sound on this very messhuggahish!Man i have 2 8 strings steph 8 and an rg8so much fun!Love to throw a riff at you some time and write a tune together!if your keen
Hey bro ! Thanks for the awesome comment man. I'm huge on Meshuggah, they blew me away when I first heard them. I had a Schecter Blackjack ATX C8 that I used here but sadly that and my Axe FX II were stolen several months ago when I had left them in a friends studio over night during some recording. I've been making due with my other guitars but contemplating on replacing it or changing to the Omen or even maybe going with an extended range 7 string. Yeah man I haven't really done any collaborations here but would certainly entertain doing something together. I think we have a lot of common interest musically. Hit me up anytime.
Ok wikkid, I do acknowledge the similarity but its only two chords. I don't seriously think there's any copyright infringement here and I'm relieved that the loop wasn't ripped from a song. Good ear though I do give you that.
Seriously grand and smooth. reminds me of old Neil Hubbard. He used to tour with bryan Ferry. did some work on the last 3 Roxy Music albums as well supplementing Phil Manzanera.

great job.

Look I researched George Bensons "Everything Must Change" and I'm at a total loss with your claim. This sounds nothing like it. Its not the same key, its not the same time signature. You had me worried that the loop was cut from an original song!
Heres a link to the song in question. Does anybody else agree with wikkid? Please chime in. I will pull it down in a heart beat, but I'm just not hearing it.
This is some really, good smooth shit. Very soulful and loads of nice touches on guitar.
Kind of sexy music, especially with that sax.
Some of the guitar reminds me a little of Jeff Beck and he's just about the most expressive, controlled guitarist on the planet who can really make the instrument sing. Overall: not bad playing!
I agree it does have a sexy vibe to it. I'm surprised by your comments though, because I didn't invest very much time into this. I definitely appreciate the comments and even though I know your not comparing me to Beck, just mentioning him where I'm concerned is pretty huge, so yeah that's much appreciated. I don't know what eviltwinzedd intended with his request and as yet he hasn't responded, but my intent wasn't to really create a song. I merely wanted to provide him a few different runs to maybe choose from and hopefully incorporate into something he is working on. Lets see what he does with it.
There was guitar playing in that? Ha Ha ! Actually she nailed the solo pretty much note for note but totally bombed out on the last note where Ritchie whammy's the hell out of it. The best part of the solo actually. So sorry man, its pretty much a thumbs down for me.
Thanks Silve. To tell the truth I really didn't put that much effort into this. I ran across eviltwinzedds forum post with a request for some guitar over his loop. I liked the loop so I took a few minutes and recorded a few runs. I figured he was wanting it to use with his own project track that would utilize the loop at some point. Anyhow, glad you like it.
Hey Neo every now and then i come to a crossroads where i notice something and i follow it for a while until another crossroads appears here is my crossroad provided by you and this superb track. I checked out Meshuggah too heavy for my baby taste at the moment i find this more palatable but i will now build up to the full undiluted Meshuggah :) Best regards peaceout Robbie.
Hey Neo your guitar playing is amazing i am totally in awe this is truly a boneshaker indeed makes me feel i was 30 years younger i need to listen to more of your work if this is the effect. Best regards and peace out. Robbie.
X man, thanks heaps for your most awesome comment bro. I know I'm so late to respond, sorry. I get so involved with other projects I don't have much time to check in here that often, but I'm very pleased to get the response from you guys. I try to work up a Halloween track each year which are primarily designed for fun. My whole reason for making music is for fun and enjoyment so yeah hopefully you will give a listen to some of my other tracks and like them as well. They are not all as novelty as this one but you might find some you also like.
Wow, yes, this does have the Halloween vibe that I came to love from 20-30 years ago. Some disturbing about it, even without the horror movie samples of the last few I heard (ha ha...sarcastic)! Oh wait, there it is at the end...
The guitar stuff is freaking cool and bizzare! Definitely very doom/glooom/glam to my ears!
I thought that this song had a bunch of ethics and potency. Very fun to hear! Fave!
Always a treat to get some feedback from you man, sorry for the late reply, I'm so bad at responding to the comments but I sincerely appreciate them all ! So glad you liked the track. I really had a blast doing this one. Yeah the bit crusher is a very unique effect and it worked really well here. These type of tracks are a lot of fun to make and of course when I hear that others had fun listening to them as well, it makes it all worth while. Haha, yeah the sound bite is Gene Wilder from "Young Frankenstein". I had to put it in. As I began working on this I watched a few Frankenstein movies and when I saw that scene it inspired me to add the storm and thunder effects which I think are integral components to the overall intensity of the track and really helps create the vibe I was going for. Thanks for your cool comments Spiv. I very much appreciate it.
Yeah several layers of guitar here and various effects. The Bit Crusher distortion and Boss Super Octave combo made for some pretty crazy sounds. Loads of fun ! Thanks for giving it a listen and taking time to comment bro.

My apologies, I meant to state that its "All is Fair in Love" by Stevie Wonder. The sax is playing the melody that Stevie sings.
Sorry about that.
I guess I had a senior moment :)

I'm confused. I hear the song "Everything Must Change" via a sax loop
that needs editing.
Your guitar work is great, that that's a copyrighted song underneath it.
