Thanks everyone 😁

[@Rowanexen]

The moment I saw that guitar I was like "He's still working on that one song isn't he?" 😂 One day we'll see a finished product of this soon-to-be masterpiece!

[@kadensabourin2571]

This full song will be my most listened to song of 2024. Mark my words

[@WombatThings]

Great episode as always! I petition for Nick to post more than once a week 🙏

[@soysauce9296]

just from you mouthing it "The Slow Decay" immediately started playing in my head, which is a song i haven't heard in years. happens to me all the damn time.. get an idea, then have to cross-reference my brain-library to make sure I'm not ripping anything too much.. but fits perfectly in context, so then have to find a way to differentiate it enough to cover my tracks LOL.. then I change it so much that it births a bunch of other ideas to come after/layer on-top, and then I start questioning if it's even still the best riff for the song I was originally working on.. before I know it, I've started working on 2-3 other songs/ideas, and am completely disconnected from the original.

[@normannguitar]

It was Nightmare for me😂 God I love Polaris

[@stijndesaedeleer8395]

If you let that ambient run out as a bridge and then pick up again you got a great bridge

[@esauvargas3647]

Since you started the first riff I knew this was a keeper as a song. So stoked you are still adding to the initial riff and becomes even more greater of a song🤘

[@djentrification1631]

Fucking heater of a riff broseph 🙏

[@AndreAkbar]

our engineer

[@VoidMacedoMusic]

As a songwriter I totally relate to this, when I was trying to write a riff I didn’t know what to do so I just went to bed but there was just one idea that was constantly playing in my head and I was like “Ok, I gotta use that.”

[@oliver_self]

I cannot wait for this song to come out. I need it. Now. Please Nick. I need it. Its so good. I just want it in my playlist. Please.

[@ranok9534]

I CANNOT wait for this to be a full track!!! 🔥

[@harrisoncedwards]

Man I still don’t understand how you only have as many subscribers as you do. Absolutely sick riffs and informative as always. All we’re missing is that spicy water cameo and we’re there Nick

[@kohnhead]

Breakdown next thursdayyyy

[@mizzlehd8742]

I love this series! Going to binge watch everything. Also is this song going to be on spotify? It's killer

[@OneInTheQuiver]

Bro, so thick and siiiiick. I usually try to finish the whole video before commenting, but it's just pure awesomeness! Keep em coming!

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

Thanks dude!!

[@danydzn]

love these melodic riffs so much, they are catchy

[@jadenrrose]

Man I hope the final version of this song gets vocals. If it does, this song will be in like half my playlists lol

[@chadettelbrick4841]

Deserved to be its own song.

[@athier5898]

hey, i see your shorts quite abit and stumbled on your channel. can you go over your recording set up? i want to specifically know how you do the drums, i can never really get that kind of sound you have here.

[@TutorioNel]

you should be waaaaaaaaaaaayy more famous, your music is awesome

[@barryleonard6138]

Ayyooo nick!!! Petition for a TesseracT or maybe a monuments style think riff

[@davek7753]

I judge a guitar video by how bad I want to pick up the guitar. I’m done playing now and needed to comment. Congrats on extracting your imagination. It’s only just begun for you now.

[@ruinofspace]

🔥🤘

[@matthewlong5206]

Simply awesome

[@briandress2448]

how did you do the production lead tone ?

[@ARC_Projects]

When Nick says “harmony” or “harmonize” 💦💦💦

[@Simon-gh6nz]

ok this one is going on the album

[@joshuamansfield6651]

Love it dude.

[@bjthenvincible]

PLEASE POST MORE BRO SICK SONG BTW

[@WombatThings]

Its what I’m sayiiiiin

[@crispy_338]

Would be cool to hear your take on the F1 theme song, especially a metal/djenty version

[@matildagreene]

Ohhh I'd love to hear that, it has the potential to sound massive

[@RandomationsYt]

Hey Nick, Could you possibly update the Logic Pro Writing Templates for people who previously bought with your updated Set Up/Mastering chain please?

[@iamlamprey]

I love these videos

[@zaquemwhc]

Nick I'm so sorry, for the first time in months I'm watching a TRT on... a Friday! I've failed nooooooooooooooo Jkjk br0ther, keep it up love this series so much!

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

UNFORGIVABLE 😭

[@markusmulholland]

You deserve more subs

[@goblator4186]

You could add a bass drop to make the new part hit harder imo !

[@alexodonnal3352]

The mic in the thumbnail 😂

[@camilla.e77]

🤩🤩🤩

[@user-xs4rm1ti8f]

An idea im trying to get to my DAW is find a wife

[@SerumHydra]

so uh...when's this getting finished young nick?

[@aleksandre4697]

Whats the drum plugin?

[@Tomasz.skupin]

Nick uses ggd Pv kit and modern & massive kit mostly

[@prodbronzzz974]

What daw are you using?

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

Logic Pro X!

[@hawkrivers-garrett9315]

I expect you've often been told you remind people of Hughie from The Boys.

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

That's a new one actually. Usually it's Bill Hader or Elijah Wood

[@ForzaSiciliaMusic2]

I was starting to worry there wouldn’t be an episode today 💔 Don’t scare us like that!

[@uriioniceXIII]

i never clicked on a video so fast

[@Obsrv-r]

What if I don’t have any riffs in my head? 😢

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

Use your 🙌 imagination 🙌

[@benstanfill363]

I find songs/riffs that come together easy are usually my best by far. Things that don't have anywhere to go, or are hard to figure out exactly right are usually just meh.

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

I feel like most of my best songs are ones that I end up finishing in a single afternoon

[@marhier]

Essentially, conceive a riff, create a voice note to ensure you do not forget it, and then proceed to record it.

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

pretty much

[@psychera5640]

whens season 2 getting released on the ole spootifoo?

[@Fras083]

Wow no comments? (I'm 1st)

[@anttispitkanen]

How did I just find this channel now, this is golden content 🤌

[@Rowanexen]

You'll love it here, trust me! ☺️

[@WhokilledKenny]

It's kind of strange, I can hear what I would play on drums to this in my head, and it's so different from what you played lol. Sounds sick tho. Great episode as always! :)
