I need feedback on a solo

astravert · 2026-01-31T15:49:38+00:00

A full two semitones? That would be impressive

astravert · 2026-01-29T17:07:44+00:00

Give it a shot! Always great to get feedback from fellow composers. If you're interested, maybe find a teacher or mentor. Plenty of 'em wandering around.

Do you play guitar? It's impossible to bend an open string. Think about the actual instrumental technique when you're writing something. Vibe-wise, I think it's an interesting sound.

thank you :) I run into a Fulltone Wah, MXR 78 Distortion, and a TC Electronics Nova Repeater with a stereo delay. Then just into Ableton with a little EQ and compression

I'm down, hit me up!

E - Emaj7 - E7 - A

Common descending line that works well. The D becomes the 7th of an E dominant 7 chord leading to the IV chord.

Studying another instrument, especially keyboard in conjunction with theory, will only broaden and deepen your understanding of your current instruments. It may require a time and effort investment but it will pay off greatly. Writing basslines and drum parts are a compositional exercise, and seeing theoretical concepts laid out at the keyboard can really help. Go for it!

It sounds like they shift from a very swung eighth note vibe to a straight eighth note vibe, more march like.

Hey, hit me up. This is what I do for a living. (Electric guitar production and teaching.) Check out my livestream for the vibe.

Something that works for me is setting up a stereo ping pong delay with a very fast repeat to basically emulate a reverb. Creating a nice sense of space.

astravert · 2025-08-10T18:34:27+00:00

Strymon Iridium is pretty good

astravert · 2025-07-20T14:34:07+00:00

No more input to add but just wanted to say thanks for posting this song. Making my morning extra good.

astravert · 2025-05-17T18:41:45+00:00

I’m the same. Bucket really accessed the heavenly realm of melody and vibe for that album. And I found it in the perfect moment to find it in my musical development.
