"Domesticated" By My Own Species
Domesticated
...original song arrangement
& guitar playing
...
Hello Steemians! I decided to give you a track with some vocals, finally.
A Nashville based songwriter, named Paul Gordon, has been working with the producer/drummer I've been working with (Pino Squillace), and he's very talented. He came to us one day with the lyrics and general melody for this song titled "Domesticated." I was tasked with creating the entire chord progression of the song, and also had a huge hand in the arrangement; along with Pino.
I loved this song from the beginning, as it talks about having your true self and creativity stifled by society, which is a strong theme in my life. The creation process was very interesting because it started as a Rock/Reggae song, and eventually morphed into a Latin feel. This was my first Latin recording, and I got to use guitar styles that I haven't had a chance to use since I learned them in college. So much fun!
We were all very happy and impressed with the outcome from the first day, which was a recording of the vocal, drums, and acoustic guitar. The other musicians then recorded over that, and I think they nailed it too. Please comment and let me know how you feel!

Thank you @yeninsfer I had you in mind with your dancing when I posted this:)
@samvan Thank you dear friend, it's very nice of you to keep me in mind. A big hug and I'll dance to your beautiful and beautiful song. I really liked it.
Glad you liked it. Keep your eye out for Paul Gordon in the future! He is a great songwriter already, at 24 years old.
I hope this doesn't sound creepy...but I, and I think he also, would love to see a video post of you dancing to it! It would give you good content to post!
Great to hear. A big hug back!
@samvan hello dear friend and guitar angel. Big hug to you too. Have a nice week and a nice day.
I listened to it twice in a row.
I like music.
I hope the posts are coming up regularly.
I should have enough material to post every seven days for the next month or so
