🎵 Output before Input #98 - 2022.04.18

This is some kind of jazz rock outland/parallel universe version of #96 (same morning, different take).

🎵 Output before Input #97 - 2022.04.18

Same “seed” idea + chords as #96 (same morning), but taken in a chunkier direction.

🎵 Output before Input #96 - 2022.04.18

I ended up recording three very different things this morning - I’m either feeling like a high achiever or can’t make up my mind where to sit in the breakfast hall.

🎵 Output before Input #95 - 2022.04.17

I call this a “Falcor” - a never-ending story of chord resolution that sounds like it goes on forever but in reality is just three chords. We have Philip Glass to thank for single-handedly making this kind of circular resolution a thing.

🎵 Output before Input #94 - 2022.04.17

I tend to focus a lot on harmonic mobility in my own writing but there’s always something interesting about playing simple changes with a particular feeling.

🎵 Output before Input #93 - 2022.04.16

This lick made me wish I were in better shape. I was listening to High Life Kings yesterday so that’s undoubtedly why I have this kind of pattern in my head today.

🎵 Output before Input #92 - 2022.04.14

A groove like this sounds easy to play and isn’t technically difficult, but can be tough to sustain consistently.

🎵 Output before Input #91 - 2022.04.13

Inverted power chord (fourth under fifth) structures keep showing up in my improvisation. They sound inherently less resolved and powerful, which lends a bit more dramatic tension.

🎵 Output before Input #90 - 2022.04.10

Bonus exploration today. Feels like outer space to me.

🎵 Output before Input #89 - 2022.04.10

I watched Metal Lords last night and something must have transferred to my subconscious.
