Heaviest-Riff-Song

DECEMBER 3, 2021

WRITING A FULL SONG FROM JUST ONE RIFF.

Here’s what a song sounds like when you have the heaviest riff in the universe to base it around…and of course the aid of some Toontrack power tools like EZdrummer 2, Duality II EZX, EZbass and more. Enjoy!

This song was based around the winning entry in the Heaviest Riff in the Universe contest that Gear Gods ran during Metal Month. Head over here to get the full backstory.
