Colin Nicholls Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Hi folks. My band's new album was released today, and to celebrate I uploaded a studio "play through" video of one of the tracks: YouTube: Working the Paradigm Shift (single edit) The track was created using Cakewalk By Bandlab. Enjoy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn Wilson Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Colin, this is one of the very best songs I've heard in a while. Great video to go with the sound track. No crits, just praise! I'll be back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB01 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Colin, just wow - awesome? I absolutely loved every second of that. Shades of Dance On A Volcano with all that staccato (I hope you don't mind the reference). Fantastic chops all round - link to the album please, where can I hear more? Absolutely top draw.

user 905133 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Nice tune! The conceptual interplay between the text ("paradigm shift") and shifting phrase lengths is a cool feature--lyrics and music playing off each other with multiple meanings! Excellent!

Colin Nicholls Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Ha, you guys are very insightful... or perhaps I'm just obvious. Correct about the influences and the intentional beat slippage in the choruses.

PhonoBrainer Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Uh, it's great and I agree with all of the above, plus the vid is very watchable! But I kept trippin' on that bass . . . I really studied it, haven't seen that style before, and would love to play one!!! Let's not overlook the general guitar sluttiness of this work. Lots of cool axes!!! want a crit? OK, your studio is far too clean to be real. cheers, -Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Nicholls Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 @emeraldsoul, multi-scale (or "fanned-fret") basses are totally a thing, to balance string tension across the string courses. The patent on them was protected for a while but that ceased to be a problem at some point. Dingwall are probably the most well-known manufacturer these days, but other companies are catching up.

SteveC Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I think I remember this song from a little while ago? If so, then the video made it all that much cooler! Y'all can play. Really love this genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
