This is the 69th solo of the Month (SotM) Challenge.
The challenge is now open and ends at midnight 23rd April 2021.
You can download backing track from Soundcloud below:
https://soundcloud.com/thefretboard/sotm69-2021-04-imalrightjack-determinationerer Record your solo over the top of it and then submit it (ideally in mp3 format) to solos@theFB.co.uk
Also, feel free to comment on how you approached the solo, which will add a bit more interest and maybe we can learn something from each other.
Discussion:
Title: Determination
Tempo: about 123 bpm.
Key: I'll let participants decide for themselves.
I might go for Em pentatonic with an added C and an F (i.e. E Phrygian), but I haven't fully decided yet.
The should be headroom to record your solo. Try to set a level without excessive master limiting, because we want to avoid loudness wars.
Voting will start soon after the submission deadline, with each voter selecting their 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice.
First choice gets 5 points - Second choice gets 3 points - Third choice gets 1 point
The order and scores of the top three entries will be announced soon after the voting ends.
No prizes. It's just for fun.
Comments
It did cross my mind to ask @imalrightjack to include a repeat to extend it a bit. But, although it's quite short, there's scope to shred loads of notes
I've just had a go at copying and pasting the main section and it seems to work OK without a glitch. Should I post a longer version, if it's OK with @imalrightjack
I can do just over 50s. I'll just wait for @imalrightjack to confirm he's OK with me messing with his track.
OK. It's being sorted.
* just gives me twice as much crap to fix in the DAW
