How I Did It
Tools I Used
Acoustic Guitar, Fender bass, bongoes, cabasa, Sonar 6
Samples I Used
Only the vocal parts from State Shirt's "Up Up Up Up Up".
Original Samples
Acoustic guitars, bass, bongoes, cabasa loop
Process
As I did with "I Hate California," I started with the vocal parts and added the chord progression to fit the vocal. Put down two rhythm parts (one mixed down), then bongoes and cabasa, and then lead guitar. Light reverb overall, and no FX on vocal.
Other Notes
The overall feeling I was going for was an impromptu "backstage" performance. As with the previous rework (Shannon Hurley's "Overboard"), this was another test of my equipment after a OS re-install.
