I added some guitars just for the last repeats of the chorus.<\/p>\n<h2>Adding Some Juice<\/h2>\n<p>I decided the song needed a little variation added to it so I broke the chorus down to just drums and the new, arpeggio guitar. Then I built it back up, adding bass (with a build bass part) and the regular chorus guitars. Here&#8217;s the result. It&#8217;s guitar, bass and drums so far, none of them are finished and the sounds are just approximations.<\/p>\n<!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-936-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/keithlivingston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Every-Love-Song-Drums-Bass-GTR.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/keithlivingston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Every-Love-Song-Drums-Bass-GTR.mp3\">https:\/\/keithlivingston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Every-Love-Song-Drums-Bass-GTR.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/keithlivingston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Every-Love-Song-Drums-Bass-GTR.mp3\">Every Love Song: Drums-Bass-GTR<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The guitars went quite quickly.
