    I've found out about the contest one day before the deadline. I composed, recorded and tried to mix in one evening, and never had done any of these things before, this is why was off tempo. Literally uploaded the video with only 10 minutes left to the end. (in my timezone had already passed 1h).

  • @Beloved.Unknown
    @Beloved.Unknown Před 3 měsíci +1

    I’m glad you picked up on the inspiration! My style has always been heavily influenced by bands like Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, and Underoath. I have been on an Incubus kick lately though, which is probably why it reminded you of Foo Fighters as well. I love modern metal, but I’ve tried writing it and it just doesn’t work for me. I decided to just write something true to my style, and I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
    After I submitted the riff, I spent the next few days writing and recording a song based on that riff. When I heard your drums, I had to laugh a little cause they’re almost note for note what I wrote! I haven’t written any lyrics yet, but is there any way I could share the instrumental with you, or even the final track once it’s done? Your contest helped me overcome some writer’s block and feel inspired again and I would love to share the results with you!
    Congrats to the winners! Your riffs are all awesome! 🎉🎉

    • @BrendonKPadjasek
      @BrendonKPadjasek  Před 3 měsíci

      Oh that’s amazing! Yeah to be honest when I have writers block I work on some rnb or rap kind of instrumentals to fight the riff block haha
      Yeah I’d love to hear it! If you post it on CZcams feel free to send it in here - although sometimes CZcams holds comments with links for review, so you can just say “I posted the song” and I’ll check it out.

    Thank you so much for this, it was not only a great opportunity but also a very inspiring contest. Also congratulations to everyone taking part, I think we all won in a way because we now have something out there to be proud of.
    Regarding my Riff: Thank you for the criticism, that definitely gave me ideas to improve my stuff. Originally I intended it to be in 87 BPM going through in a normal 4/4 feel, which is why I didn't encounter any timing problems (other than some unprecise tracking maybe), but you definitely made it much more interesting with that drum beat. I think I might even go back and record a new version over your drum ideas with correct phrasing.

    • @BrendonKPadjasek

    The riffs-rhythms are good, the sound of the drums somehow didn't suit me...

    brendon i just wanted to say your feature on northlane's ep was standout, and i was thoroughly impressed. the rap style delivery over the second repetition before the breakdown was incredible.
    i think the world needs more assistance in how to deliver vocals over instrumentals like you did there. i also assume the riffs were yours too, which were killer also. northlane knew they lost a good thing with you!

      I actually didn’t write an instrumentals for northlane. Jon is just a writing machine. But thank you so much! I do appreciate that
