  • Messing about with an old Bacharach & David tune: The Look of Love
    Nothing to do with Cosmosis - but what the heck... :)
    A bit of a struggle to play chords on that little toy keyboard! But it's all I have to hand right now.
    I'm currently exploring how to create music with more space. I've identified it as a particular weakness in my own music composition - I feel compelled to fill every semi-quaver of every bar with sound for some reason.
    I suppose it's not surprising really given I've spent the last quarter of a century producing high energy, high tempo dance records. Anyway, I'm learning to dial it right back and allow sounds to breathe and occupy their own space unimpeded...
    The tune is the classic The Look of Love (Bacharach & David) I lifted Dusty's melodic phrasing from her superb 1967 Dusty Springfield version.

      Whilst I certainly won't argue with Billy's opinion here , I would say best to get a DAW and write some Goa first, before trying to add guitar, especially as a beginner. That said, learning guitar is it's own reward anyway. But, learn to walk before you run.
      P.S. My apologies if you already produce Goa, I just presumed you didn't.

    It has only just dawned on me that you sir, are quite culpable for my lack of results when I was in university. If you had not released such great music, I probably would have taken less acid and concentrated more on my physics lectures. That would mean I would likely have solved cold fusion by now... Therefore, It is without doubt, your fault that humanity is suffering an energy crisis leading to global climate change... Sleep well tonight.
    Oh, and keep up the cool tunes :)

    Hello again! Now I have a guitar and learning... :P. May I ask if you use same DAW for recording guitar and Psytrance production? If not, which DAW's do you use for each purposes?
    Thanks

    • @BillyCosmosis
      @BillyCosmosis  3 роки тому +1

      Same one. DAW's are just recording tools. The music style makes zero difference. I'm familiar with both Cubase or Ableton so I use either one. I tend to use Ableton more these days.

      Mylogify: My tip for learning guitar: If you haven't got one, (1) get a guitar stand. (2) Figure out where you sit at home most of the time (sofa, computer chair etc) and put the guitar on a stand *within arm's reach* . Never store a guitar in it's case. Guitars are for playing, cases are for transporting or storing guitars - if you put in it's case you'll never play it! Make a habit of picking it up and playing it *everyday* even if it's only for 15 mins to work on your chord changes or whatever. Put it *down* when you've had enough! Guitar stands are cheap. For example this is a good one: www.thomann.de/gb/millenium_gs2001e.htm (if you got an acoustic get the acoustic version of the stand) Keep at it! Good luck

    • @BillyCosmosis
      @BillyCosmosis  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks! It's in Dmin. It is actually quite tricky because the tempo is slow and there's one or two surprise out of key chords that linger (particularly the Bbmin6) which can catch you out! So I'm mainly changing arpeggios/pentatonics with the chord changes trying to keep it melodic by keeping to the chord tones. If it was a faster tempo and the chords changed quicker, I would just be able to get away with rocking Dmin penta/blues right through except for making a special feature (using chord tones) for that 2 bars of Bbmin6
