Very mysterious hook Greg.
Could be an opening for a movie.

Certainly on the dark side Greg, but it also commands your attention. A great start to and Sci Fi.

Wow, someone else did something that sounded like it could be on Apple TV’s Severance and so did this. Really dark and mysterious. It had the sound of a metal song intro in Phrygian. Nice job!

Or the strength of an Oak with roots deep in the ground.

I like this one because there are so many ways you could take this. The minor second gives it that darker unsettling sound and the 5th and octave note gives it that stability and ambiguousness of where it might go next. Lot’s of ways to go forward so mission accomplished.

Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

Very interesting spheric feeling..

I’ve been fooling around with “White Rabbit” lately. This has that phyrgian dominant sound. Cool, Greg.

Very mysterious, curious about the sequel.

[Manfred M]

This is not only a hook, Greg, this is a whole musical painting. Mysterious and thrilling!

Take the chance to meet your AM friends on Zoom
The next Meetup will be July
There will be a detailed announcement here in the forum
I look forward to meet you.

Dark and haunting hook, it could be the theme of a psychological thriller! Very well crafted, played and produced, with a wise use of the effects, Greg.

Super cool. Could hear that progressing into a heavy rock song. Evokes Tool or Soundgarden vibes. Nice work!

I like the Phrygian (Dark) sound… Very mystifying and interesting. Love it actually!

Hi Greg, nice layering of sounds there. It definitely sounds like it wants to go somewhere powerful.

[JoLa]

So dark and mysterious, but also eerie and unsettling – what’s not to love, my kind of vibe! 😎🤘
