Thanks to @Yeti for our next topic challenge. It's Contrast!

How about we make the next theme Contrast? So that could be major progression with a minor melody, sad lyrics over a happy tune, mixing styles or even multiple sections that are completely different from each other...

Anyone can enter this competition. You just need a guitar and a phone. But any other recording equipment is fine too. Collaborations with fellow members or anyone you can recruit is encouraged!

This is interesting... I'm thinking of either a funk and metal or dance and rock or electonika and acoustic guitar or something like that.

V8 you can choose whatever you want ;-) I just threw out random ideas... I probably can't even play funk to save my life. lol

      Hi guys & gals, anyone keen to riff over this for the Contrast challenge?

      Made in Ableton, and I can provide track stems if you like.

      warrenpridgeon I probably can't even play funk to save my life

      Never know till you try! Though...I make little claim to being able to do it, I just try, try and try again ?

          V8 Haha jesus

          I'm not well practised with blast beats but could try something - share the stems somewhere daveo1977 ? Also, can you share the drum midi file? Can hook you up with much better sounding drums

          (the violin melodies are super cool btw)

              ScottyDogg the violin melodies are super cool btw)

              Thought the same, so I poked ya - coz' I have no 7 stringer(s) to do it justice ?

                V8 lol well I don't have a 7 string - just a 6 string tuned down to drop B ?

                    @ScottyDogg Super stoked that you're keen on a colab! Shout if you need anymore info or other production bits, and thank you.

                    daveo1977 Lol dunno what's going on with the midi? Pulled it in and this:

                    Top is the blast.mid file, next is hiphop.mid and below those is the coresessiondry.wav file. The midi files amount to 16 seconds long

                    Also, bpm of the song?

                      ScottyDogg I think I know what I did wrong. Fixed it and added the "Combo" midi file to the download folder. BPM set to 120.
