Jig in Drop D: Watch The Wattle Dance

I put this tune together over the past week. It’s what I’ve been doing a lot more of lately, once my homeschool dad hat gets hung up for the day.

The aim here was a bright tone, a steady beat set alongside a funk-ish rhythm. Originally, I was going to do the whole lead in an auto-wah, however, when I put it down, then played it back, the effect made the sound muddied. So, I worked through the list and stumbled upon the Pod HD400’s ‘Twang.’ It wasn’t love-at-first-strum, but the sound fit the beat, bass-line and rhythm.

Everything you hear is mine, excluding the very last bit. (Although, I’m pretty sure, “nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah” is in the public domain)

Hope ya’ll like it.
