Original: “One”

Click here to listen to my song “One”

*drumroll please*

This is my first “real” song.  It’s a simple little ditty I came up with a couple weeks ago.  (Well, maybe “ditty” isn’t the right word.)  The name “One” is a placeholder, since I haven’t come up with a real name yet — I’m not paying homage to the Metallica song of the same name!

I spent about a week recording the guitar parts, coming up with drum and bass parts, and mixing it.  Everything in the song (guitar, bass, and drums) is original except for the crazy drum fills at the end, which I took from a collection that came with EZdrummer (you will know them when you hear them 🙂 ).

I hope you enjoy the song.  It’s interesting to see what kind of music you come up with when you just play what comes to mind.  I’m pretty happy with the result, and I’m looking forward to working on the next one.

    Coolness!

    Reminds me stylistically of a mix of

    Metallica <–guitars

    with

    Explosions in the Sky <–drums

    Awesome!
