A song I did - General - Facepunch Forum

Hello I would just like some feedback. This was recorded on a shitty mic, and mixed with audacity. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuuvzIvdFVc[/media]

Not bad at all. I just don't find this a complete song, more some random guitar playing. I like it though.

It's pretty cool, but as said before it's not really a song yet. You need some sort of progression, a song's supposed to tell a story and blah blah blah. It needs to builkd up to something- or at least change throughout. The guitar over the top is quite nice but the actual tune isn't too great, fair enough if you're trying to improvise but you should try spicing it up with some slides, bends, hammer ons or changing octave occasionaly, or even playing the same scale but further up. If you're not improvising then you need to work on making it more indepth and have more of a reason to it- by this I mean it should be trying to convey something. Whether a story like mention above, some sort of progression, or even just trying to be catchy and making it a nice little tune. At the moment it's fairly bland, but still, good job! EDIT: Also I really like the slow pace of the solo guitar, but another way to mix things up would be to change the speed of the playing occasionally, maybe doing faster runs every now and then or holding some more important notes (1st's, 5ths etc are a good start).

Thanks for the constructive criticism, once I get my guitar fixed I will defiantly take your advice.

Cool, glad I could help :smile: out of curiosity what guitar do you have?

I have a Walden acoustic, and a Ibenez electric guitar.

10 notes, 3 chords, 1 boring solo. Generally you should try to stay away from releasing a warm-up exercise as an independent piece of music.
