Title: Swedish Frog's First Ever Instrumental - Laurel Leaves (Once I'm Gone) Post by: Mendota Heights on August 26, 2012, 09:24:24 AM Hi, guys!
For the first time ever I've decided to record a backing track and it turned out to be a haunting slow ballad. :) I've probably made every mistake possible, so I appreciate your opinions and feedback. Link to faster version: http://soundcloud.com/swedish-frog/laurel-leaves-faster-version (http://soundcloud.com/swedish-frog/laurel-leaves-faster-version) Link to slow version: http://soundcloud.com/swedish-frog/laurel-leaves-instrumental (http://soundcloud.com/swedish-frog/laurel-leaves-instrumental) Here is the structure: Haunting intro Verse Verse + short chorus Verse Verse + short chorus Beautiful outro :-D Please let me know what you think! ::) If this song's unsuccessful the bank will forclosure my house and reposess my Volvo. And we don't want that to happen.

Might as well be alternate version of In The Still Of The Night! I dig the feeling and sound tho, gj! :smokin

Since this is the first time I work with chords I tried to keep it as simple as possible, so I wrote it in C major. |
