During the songwriting and recording process, my session lead guitarist (who's doing both acoustic guitars and electric guitars for this particular song of Sleeping Awake) decided to use the bass and drum tracks to put together a rough draft demo version of this song, only with just the acoustic guitars. I was really feeling the vibe of the direction this song was going in, and it really turned out better than I thought.
Note: in no way is this the official final finished version (yet...) but it's going to be a lot of fun to see how this turns out. With that being said, enjoy this rough draft demo version of Sleeping Awake from me and the entire crew at SoundBetter. Wait until you hear the lyrics and vocals for this song - it's gonna be so awesome! Also, below is some attached files of additional drum, bass and guitar material we were working on throughout the entire songwriting/recording process and thought it'd be cool to show you some additional behind-the-scenes exclusive content of what we've worked on thus far and give you an clear idea of what's to come next.
Enjoy the content - we'll be back soon with more updates on Sleeping Awake and Shades of Myself. Then after that, we're taking a break for about a week or two, maybe 4 weeks, depending on how we all feel, and start work on the bass tracks and guitar tracks and additional synths/MIDI keyboard/DJ samplings work for the very intense, dark and sadomasochistic Industrial/Gothic/Alternative Hard Rock/Electronica song known as Shades of Myself - it's gonna be quite a kinky song. Cheerios!
One Love,
October.
