AndyB01 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 So here's one I put together recently - the piano is built entirely from EzKeys and apart from changing the tempo and key of the stock clips I have made very few changes as I just think it works pretty well as it is. The lyrics are all my own work and and I have committed my usual crime against singing ?. It's supposed to be upbeat'ish (well for me anyway) and a made up story about a couple who are having a 'sliding doors' kind of moment and can't quite work out whether they're going to split or have another go at things. Nits and crits welcome. Enjoy Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiller Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Cool song. I might have to give EZKeys another look. Being a guitar player, I’d like to hear the lead part come up just a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a guitar player, I’d like to hear the lead part come up just a bit. I think it's great software as the stock clips can be endlessly customised or you can compose your own chord sequences and use it as a session pianist - very clever (although be warned, the MIDI add-on packs can prove an expensive addiction - look out for seasonal deals). Fair point on the guitar, I'm still not over the moon with it so I knocked it down a bit. I'm a competent guitarist but lead riffs just aren't my thing - my son says all my guitar riffs sound the same - I've told him, I'm playing all the same notes, but not necessarily in the same order. ? 44 minutes ago, garybrun said: Nice voice Andrew. Cheers Gary, coming from a man with your immense vocal talent that's a very kind comment. 36 minutes ago, Old Joad said: Good tune, sounds great and the vocals are just fine.. I think the tune is really catchy - that's why I used it. I know using stock clips from stuff like EzKeys will always split opinion but there it is - I'm not trying to pass it off as my own work. Thanks all - appreciate you taking the time out to listen and comment as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a quote from Eric Clapton that he had the same riff running through his mind for years, so you're in good company..

Hidden Symmetry Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Enjoyed the tune, liked the vocals as well. As far as using EzKeys I think that if it helps inspire or create then it's a good tool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daryl1968 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Nice song Andy. Mixwise, maybe bring the music up and the vocal down a tad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
