Story behind the song
Now you all know I've been trying to come up with a 60's Surf song. I'm close but not there yet, my latest song "Summer Waves" is almost there. I put it up on my music page to get a little feed back from anyone who would like to comment on it. It's a bit different I put a Latin Beat to it and used a dark chord progression. Is the Bass to over powering??? How's the timing??? This song is pretty involved 4 lead guitars playing the lead in this song. I tried to come up with several different sounds all trying to complement each other. Not sure I pulled it off.. what I started with is totally different from what I finished with. I love it when a song takes on a life of it's own and your just along for the ride. That's what this tune did, I just kept adding stuff and it just took off. I started on this song yesterday I was fooling around with some chords and like always I record my practice sessions, and when I played back what I was goofing around with, hey that doesn't sound to bad. I had a Latin beat playing in my drum program that I was playing to, just doing something different. Well the rhythm and melody is taken right off that practice session. This song is a long one, once I got going I sort of got carried away. Threw in a bass line and of coarse some strings in the back ground. Been at it pretty much straight for 2 days, but what I came up with is sort of a surf song. This tune I stepped out of the box...
