Jan 31 - Keep My Soul Alive

I started with drums this week and once a groove was put together I wrote some chords on the piano. The borrowed chord near the end of the progression is nice and unique, but it might stick out too much and/or cause the song to feel a bit too sad. 


As the song came together, I settled on a gated vocal lead and added in some vocals. After stream, I reworked the main vocal because the one I chose on stream wasn't that great. Overall, the session was good and the song came together nicely. I like this and I'm going to work on it some more, but I'm not sure it's strong enough for a release.


What do you think? Do you like this one? Does the borrowed chord in the progression sound good or bad to you? And would you like to see this one finished? - Let me know in the comments.


Download attached and the WIP Archive has been updated!


Last week the 1st release of 2024 - Echoes of a Star went live! Have a great rest of your week and I'll see you tomorrow on stream.

I like the borrowed chord in the progression. I don't think it sounds out of place and perhaps if it lends a touch of melancholy - well, I like that.🙂 I would *love* to see it finished! 😍
