The other night I was playing guitar unplugged while watching TV. I hit these two chords in succession of each other, and thought they sounded kind of cool together. I had no idea what I would do with them. Anyways, I ended up plugging in today, and played them with some chorus and delay. As soon as I heard that delay with them, I immediately got a reggae vibe from the sound. I hit the chords a couple of few times and a bass line popped right in my head. I laid down those tracks in one take real quick. I duplicated the riffy track and transposed it down to a bass type sound. Then I hopped on youtube and looked for a reggae drum track at 80 bpm, and threw it on there. I recorded the up beat ching ching thing, and then threw down a one take solo for the hell of it. I always wanted to record some type of reggae sounding thing, and I had absolutely no idea I would've done one today until hearing the delay inspired me. Anyways, it was something fun to fart around and do, and the whole thing only took about 25 minutes tops. Most of that time was trying to find a drum track I liked and lining it up where I wanted it. Oh well.....whatever.

Sounds cool. It's like a new wave sort of raggae, I wasn't expecting that. You could probably develop it further.

Thanks. Yeah, when I first hit those chords while plugged in, it kind of reminded me of The Police, and it just kind of all fell in together by itself after that.

You're welcome. Always good when you get inspiration from little parts.
