Name: And Yet Here I Am by Mats Nermark
Duration: 3 min 56 s
Description: This is a ballad I wrote hoping to incorporate some of my Nordic musical heritage into my own music. While this was the aim intellectually, I'm not at all sure there any Nordic elements here at all.

Its Get Warmer Working Mix 0.9

I was having fun with programming sounds for AmpliTube 5 and came up with a clean sound that reminded me of the great clean sound that was used by the studio session players from the 80s and 90s. Players like Michael Landau, Steve Lukather, Dann Huff, Bruce Gaitch and Steve Farris to name a few.
While finalizing the sound I came up with the initial riff of this tune and the rest flowed from that. It felt like I was painting a soundscape with a guitar colors.
All the sounds in this tune (except for drums/persussion) were made with AmpliTube 5. Great amp plugin!

And Yet Here I Am

I really like John Mayer's clean guitar sound. So I wrote a tune around that kind of sound and this is what I came up with.
