Introductions and Fills
by Ben Collins
Today we're going to look at introductions and fills within a song.
to give you an idea of what I mean, here is an intro to one of my songs.
Intro
---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------
-------------------8-9-8---------------
-7-9-9-10-9-7-9-9---------10-7-9-9-----
---------------------------------------
Main riff
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
----4-4----4-4----4-4---4-5--
----4-4----4-4----4-4---4-5--
--0h2-2-0h2-2---0h2-2-0h2-3--
This is used by a lot of bands, including Metallica, Iced Earth, Judas Priest,
and Trivium etc.
You can harmonise intros, which I will explain in a later lesson. This is used
by Iron Maiden, and you need another guitarist or a harmoniser when playing live. In the studio you could use another track.
Another example is Iced Earth's "attila".
------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------
-----------------7--------10--------------------------
-7-7-5-7--7-9-10---10-9------8-8--8-10-12-10--7-7-5-7-
------------------------------------------------------
Try coming up with your own until I put the harmonisation lesson on here.
have fun. |
