After countless hours of writing, recording, editing and mixing, my first original song is finally finished. I made this song for an assignment at Dalarna University, where I am currently studying Sound and Music Production. This particular assignment was actually focused on recording techniques, not song writing, but we were able to choose what we were going to record. I've wanted to write a song for a long time, so I figured the deadline would force me into finally doing one from start to finish.

I wrote all the instruments' parts. I used my Stratocaster to record all guitar tracks directly into the computer with the GTR Amp plugin using the 'Supernatural' effect and I programmed the drums using Superior Drummer. The bass, played by my good friend Jonas Holmström, was recorded though a BSS DI-box with a GTR Amp 'OverBass' effect. For extra depth, we also did a split recording his bass amp, using SM57 and D112 microphones. He also helped me with the mixing, which was done on an Avid S6 Control Surface using its SSLEQ and other Pro Tools plugins.

I want to give a MASSIVE thanks to Jonas for helping me with this, he's really been invaluable throughout the entire process. He only had 2 days to learn all his parts, but he still nailed it and then managed to make the mix way better than I ever could've done by myself. Thanks, man!
