Need some help in the form of keys/piano on a grooving-guitar pop tune

hi friends,

I am in need of some steller keys on a piece I'm working on. I'm afraid I need it somewhat quickly too, like in two or three weeks.

It's groovy, basic pop rock and in the key of A.

What I got here is the basic skeleton, not much will change. I am re-recording the chorus guitars, but the progressions will stay the same.

Use your creativity and get something with a cool sound! I just want something to re-inforce the song, not steal the show.

I was also thinking maybe some kind of organ on the bridge? There will be a guitar solo in there at some point, which will come in when the drums come back in (should be fairly obvious to the listener...) but maybe some rock organs beforehand? I dunno, just a thought...

But enough of typing, listen to it for yourself...

Know It All

PS: Chord Progressions
Verse: A C#m F#m E
Pre-Chorus: D D# E
Chorus: D A E; G D/F#
Bridge: Bm F#7
Bridge Outro: Bm F# A E G D E (Descending chromatic bassline)

Debut Album, all in SONAR!

    Hey Dude

    Any chance you can put the d/l option on SC so we can have a bash at it and try out some of our alchemy?

    Never mind all that for now though what an amazing tune again.

    its really nice to hear another RDK user btw... although the snare sounds a bit hot presently.

    But this is gonna work whatever happens 'cause its a solid chunk of groovyness already

    Dude

    This is a totally worthless piece and should be banned from existence.








    You had me going for a bit, so I thought I'd return the favor. If you want some people to work on adding possibilities, you really should make it availabe for download as Jon said. Of course the cough at the beginning needs to be edited out, but the rest of it sounds pretty cool. Nice vox and a nice clean sound on this.
    Well done

    ahh, yes. the download box. i should stop uploading stuff so late at night...

    Jonbouy - I love RDK! So great!

    rolifer - you had me at first! funny stuff.

    download box is checked. Also, it is a 98 bpm (i think) if you needed that...

    hmmm sounds a bit slower than 98 to me....

    Thanks for changing the d/l status I'm setting up some organ patches presently so I may drop it in amongst some of those if I can get at my daw. Stay on the lookout though as I don't even know if I can make time for it at the moment.

    it might not be 98, i was going off the top of my head. i will double check when i load up my DAW next.

    how did you know I was using RDK? Did i post that somewhere, or are you just that observational?
