Unifying Theory of Me: Away From Home

Overview:

Away from Home is the third track that will eventually go on to my EP “Unifying Theory of Me.” for this track, I started with a chord progression that I stumbled across while noodling one practice session. I tried out different strumming patterns. After I was happy, I then recorded it into one of my loopers and started soloing over the top. Once I had a good foundation, I moved to my DAW. I started with a drummer plugin and sequenced out the drums. Next, I added the rhythm Guitar and bass. I knew I wanted a piano part, but I didn’t want the sequence it as I did in other songs. Using music theory, I wrote and rudimentary piano part. I lay no claims to being a piano player; I took the piece and practiced until I felt I could record it. Once I recorded all parts, I mixed and mastered them.

Unifying Theory of Me: Shoulders of Giants

Overview:

Shoulders of Giants is the second track that will eventually go on to my EP “Unifying Theory of Me.” I was inspired by a famous funk song when I wrote this riff. The tonally the riff themself have nothing in common. However, the song structure does. The song consists of a riff parts for the verse and a riff for the chorus. They are held together by a bridge. The riff I came to one night while practicing. The second riff I developed to complement the first. At the time of writing, I was still taking music lessons, and my teacher at the time helped me write the bridge. From there, I put everything into my DAW. For this track, I used a canned drum beat that came with my software. Much later, I added the horns and organ; these were sequenced with my computer not played by me.
