“King of the Desert” is a new endeavor for me. In experimenting with some new guitar soundfonts, I’ve really wanted to bust out a powerful rock ‘n roll number.
This is what happened. (Note: the epic metal section kicks in around the 1:30 mark. Wait for it!)
This chord progression has been in the back of my head for awhile, but until this song I hadn’t found a good use for it. While I like the melody and structure of “King of the Desert,” the real masterpiece is the countless subtle effects used throughout. The strum of the guitar, the pitch fades on the high power chords, realistic harmonics on the guitar solos – this song is only possible thanks to many subtle, meticulously hand-tuned tweaks. You won’t hear a better hand-edited MIDI guitar track than this.
