March of Shadows (disquiet0622)

Disquiet Junto Project 0622: Know the Shadow
The Assignment: How do you depict a shadow in sound?

It finally occurred to me when I was playing guitar that each note on the fretboard has a sort of shadow note that you can sometimes hear if you play unplugged.  If you pluck the string on the other side of your fret hand you get a different note.  The pickup on an electric of course won't get this.  I recorded with my phone because the mic is pretty sensitive and still had to jack up the volume a bit in the DAW. Anyway, I held the same chord the entire time, AbMaj #4 7 10, and went back and forth, picking on one side of the fret hand and then the other.  On the other side you get a BMaj 6 (no 5).  The two chords together, the regular and the "shadow chord" give you a 6 note scale: Ab B C D Eb G.  Sounds like some ancient exotic lyre or something. Who knew?

Added some echo and reverb because ya know, shadows.
