This week, I started working on our first track. Since Anton left our group, I picked up the job of producer as well as songwriter. I first made a rough track using some loops and a bass line in Ableton. I asked Mathew to record some guitar on top of this to use as inspiration to build the track further.
This brought to light the first difficult part of collaborating online. If Me and Matthew were in the same room, he could have recorded a part instantly. However, because we were working remotely and both working at different times, I had to work until the next day to receive his guitar part.
Once I received his part, I was particularly inspired by a small part that he played. I isolated this section and looped it. This would become the intro to the track. Rather than using the original track I sent Matthew, I used his guitar to take me in a completely new direction.
Over this guitar loop I came up with a descending set of chords that built tension. I imagine that this will work well as an intro track. I will work on it further in the coming week.
