Turning a 4 year old voice memo into a song | Thick Riff Thursday, Ep 3

[@DomDavies]

Dude! You gotta track this as a full song 😮

[@CapnJohnson411]

Dude I was just thinking the same, would be a sick solo release

[@richieclarks]

Plz drop it like, yesterday. Need this riff in muh lyfe!

[@MatthewMiller716]

Yes and see if you can get some artists to collab on bass and drums!

[@hoyhoy2oo]

Yes please

[@azharssideproject]

Yes pleaseee

[@damp19]

"Open-chord-feel-good kinda riffs..." is the best and most accurate definition I've heard for that sound! I love it!

[@ADeatonic]

This feels like Volumes + The Contortionist. I love it. You write the absolute sickest shit.

[@BugsakaJon]

the memo sounded alot like It prevails. basically like peak melodic hardcore

[@hamlinjandrew]

Thats awesome Mike Lessard is an old friend of mine from Maine back in the day

[@ADeatonic]

@@hamlinjandrew that's so awesome. He seems like he would be an awesome person to know

[@JeriatricA]

I was feeling The Contortionist, too. Or Vitalism. It sounds absolutely amazing either way.

[@ModernBuilds]

This reminds me of Volumes when volumes was volumes 🔥🔥

[@TheDiaryChannel]

Actually this riff reminds me soo much of the early outputs from the french prog-metalcore band novelists, really dig it, keep it up!

[@IamTakutama]

8:26 Bro knew exactly what he did. 🍀

[@SeanRaine]

the fact that 2019 was 4 years ago made me cry lol dope freakin riff dude

[@DevonD.B]

at 3:10 i was thinking "hey, this is some mark holcomb style thing" and then you said it. thanks.

[@kikor6807]

“I wanna harmonize this” 😱 🔥

[@Synsikal]

Hey...yeah so...my adhd is requesting this be made so I can listen to this non-stop for a week and then create a time I periodically listen to this every year for nostalgic value and dopamine. Please and thank you very much.

[@sparklybluebass]

this feels like early Pierce The Veil and a mix of LANDMVRKS IM SCREAMING

[@ranok9534]

15:28 That's a golden nugget right there! 👏

[@PeachyKeena_]

lmao right before you said "this sounds like intervals" i was thinking about how well a jacob umansky slap bass lick would fit in there

[@crazyfrets07]

Just discovering Thick Riff Thursday and damn are they fun to watch!

[@johnnysend-it9381]

Saw this video on tiktok, followed the trail and im not disappointed. This is literally gold at the end of the rainbow 🫠🫠

[@jigglepuff1218]

Lol bro me too

[@prycehundley2982]

Love how you got into this riff. It’s great to see people get excited about what they make. Especially when it’s really good like this!

[@Dilbert_]

That riff gave me the same feeling i got when I heard A Day To Remember’s Homesick album for the first time. I love it, exceptional work.

[@timechildec]

This riff was stuck in my head all day at work. I can’t get enough!

[@kamilliwinski1606]

Volumes from VIA vibes... LOVE IT!

[@6eric6little62]

Dude I could watch you do this all day it’s so interesting and inspiring like I want to just leave work just to go play guitar and come up with some tasty riffs like this

[@noegalvan3876]

Freaking LOVE this riff. You gotta turn this in a full song. Thank you for always inspiring me in my journey of producing

[@JWhitman]

Siiiiick. Love this "happily heavy" vibe. Reminds me of Intervals, Dayseeker, etc etc etc. So good!

[@mchalio80]

these series are best. every song idea turns out fantastic. its so helpful to see your full process for guys like me struggling through each step and wanting to give up

[@iamjaroslaw]

That riff gives old Erra vibes. Love it

[@itsfish4630]

Yessirrrr ERRA + Volumes vibes for sure

[@skoneloke]

Dude this is sick. Thank you for inspiring me to stop being lazy and start recording more! Love your writing process and note choices

[@littleblaze23]

Thursday is my favorite day now

[@iliaskakanis9752]

Well.. i don't usually get jealous over riffs.. but fuuuuuck man that was amazing! So uplifting! It reminded me a little bit of Lantlos from their latest album. Cheers dude!

[@Im_Not_A_Dad]

Dude, those two quiet power chord guitar parts hit me and made that riff really pop right. It’s not just in your head. I forgot who made this technique, but a fun trick to run a bass through a guitar amp, play the rhythm melody but an octave higher. It does… Something. But it does it really well.

[@GardnerBroz]

That was sick dude I agree this needs a whole song built around it 👌🏻

[@ng6943]

Catching I Built The Sky vibes. Love it!

[@sylvainpanneau6460]

GOD DAMN that's fire man please release that shit

[@grom2125]

I come back to listen to this at least twice a week... itches my brain in the best way

[@jordanvalladores4933]

Listening to the finished product with EYES CLOSED, HEAD BANGIN'.

[@cauapaulon167]

My God, it's so satisfactiing see on your writing flow, i could watch this all day, very relaxing

[@Ben_89]

Killer riff. First video I've watched of yours. Top quality all around!

[@NadaXVII]

I’ve had this on repeat on Spotify ALL DAY ITS SO GOOD

[@billlanagan2320]

Saw a clip on youtube and had to come over to watch the full vid. this was 11/10

[@mrandmrsbearau]

Come across this on tiktok. Reminds me of Counterparts. So damn awesome

[@itsfish4630]

Straight up sounds like Augment/Moments Of Clarity era ERRA and Via/No Sleep era Volumes had a baby and im living for it

[@jpowguitar3077]

Really enjoyed this.

[@metrvg]

At minute 8:31, I made the same face hahahaha. Your videos are awesome! Thank you!

[@IamDiamondEyes]

i LOVE this riff dude holy heck

[@Haemish98]

This is a sick af riff bro. Loving these Thick Riff Thursdays!!!

[@MrMatsod]

Man this is such a ripping idea and I love the process

[@JohnPaulGiancarlo]

Amazing track ! You are a recording genius dude! Composition is lovely… definitely make it into a song and get it published

[@jameslavender3736]

Bad ass man needs a full version

[@diagonalskyline]

Dude. This is some sick riff Thursday stuff. Gives me some modern Intervals × I Built the Sky vibes and I definitely agree with everyone else that this needs to be a full song.

[@Epichicken]

god tier riff! Very intervals-like even in the production style. great stuff man

[@ivan_paul77music]

OMG duuuuuude…. Your music is gonna cure my depression… Fucking inspiring. 🫶🏻🔥✨

[@izmeqfenner8130]

Yooo this is some Volumes - VIA album era kinda stuff! Love it bro!

[@AdamMedina1987]

Been following you for a little over a year just wanted to say great work and I really enjoy everything you put out!

[@cheeckjerokee]

This has got to be some of the most interesting content on youtube rn.

[@shaneclark8124]

Really fuck with what you’re doing this riff is incredible

[@joeysimoneau]

Love your passion for music. When you talked about going the extra mile to make sure the "riff hits" better by recording 2 more guitar tracks was kind of funny but also very inspiring.

[@producerdanielsan]

Subscribed. Nice production and clean mix

[@BrandonBurch]

Very inspiring!

[@_yami]

So much early Intervals vibes from the Riff man

[@CreNativeFosho]

I will literally buy this composition from you for my band.

[@jsingaming3662]

Jesus man! That's some sensual love making to my ear holes! Love it!

[@jonahbullock8102]

I love your channel. It inspires me to write and learn new things!

[@Bl4k3tron94]

damn bro, that lead had such a great feel

[@YamiK0h]

Been following on Insta since you were in University! Glad to see you have a KZbin!

[@aarontena9080]

Dude this riff SLAPS!

[@7revorBlack]

Nick I just wanna say, I was thrilled with the entire video so far, then you whipped out the Samuel Hayden quote. Immediate sub

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

hahah its kind of a deep cut, I'm glad someone mentioned it 😂

[@Mickosis]

LOVE this so much dude!

[@krymsix574]

I would definitely love to hear this turned into a full track. Awesome to find an old idea and regain that inspiration for that specific sound . Excellent work!

[@idekbran]

i like these production videos brother, I am learning a lot! thanks!

[@motionskymusic]

Honestly the best riff I’ve ever heard in my life! Ticks so many boxes IMO

[@carlprinston]

Yooo this popped up on my feed and this is killer. Love how you went through your whole creative process. Keep it up, you just gained a sub

[@BigBadMadden95]

You randomly popped up on my feed and have inspired me to write something (haven't done in like 3 years really)

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

absolutely amazing to hear 🙏

[@pamansalim6898]

Dude, it was sick riff. Honestly it's almost like outiler from counterparts, but i love it!!!

[@jhimelberger]

That's fantastic, please make it a full song

[@Metalingus]

Well now you gotta finish this one too lol. I love it! Can’t wait to hear what it becomes.

[@drockx]

seriously awesome riff. can't wait for the full track. gotta do it

[@Dollyo98]

Reading the title I thought at first you were going to use an actual 4 year old kid's voice for the riff

[@matt6288joyce]

Wow. I’ve just found your channel and your content is amazing!

[@Hurakion]

This sounds so awesome, your guitar playing is so good!

[@calebmolenda9588]

You just popped up in recommended! Keep this stuff up. I miss sitting around drinking way too much coffee on a Saturday morning recording ideas. I’m digging out my Scarlett tonight.

[@calebmolenda9588]

Also; I love those little things like at 8:30 when you find that little extra thing to throw in that just ties it all together.

[@MitchellBader]

Dude, this absolutely rips! Really enjoyed watching your creative/production process as well.

[@Hechab]

Lol I was half expecting the memo to be you humming and making weird noises... like I do!

[@brucel.7526]

saw this on IG! this is badass!

[@donnynottim]

Love these videos, Nick.

[@DanielFernandez-uy1xl]

I immediately thought it was flying cupid - oasis. Damn dude needed full circle on this somewhere. 💯🔥

[@riveradrew2153]

Clean ass audio room ✅

[@ommienarizz1658]

This is the first time I watch your video then I hit subscribe instantly. You are awesome! This inspired me to write a song. Thanks man.

[@benlarson8263]

SUBBED!! Thank you for showing us your workflow for ideas. I feel like this is how I work too generally speaking but I had nothing to compare it to. Your playing is awesome and I love seeing your stuff in Logic. Peace!

[@AKHalex]

1:23 this reminds me of Story of Hope - Your Colors, Your Feelings at around 1.03.

[@AKHalex]

Here is a link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3ibiYGjo5lgfZI

[@rodfaircloth35]

I smiled when you smiled. Beautiful moment @8:27

[@johnny_b_dude]

This sounds super sick! Really enjoy your workflow and commentary in between.

[@iceize212]

This is awesome dude

[@alfiesolomon3531]

Love these series! Keep 'em coming!

[@lousanus3680]

I’ve never seen your videos before but this came up on my recommended and I’m so glad it did, this has made me want to go home and dig up some old riffs 👏🏼 Thank you for the inspiration!

[@joshtorresfdu6621]

Big inspiration of mine brother and I can’t even play one note you play but it makes me wanna get better and write.

[@nickbroomhallmusic]

Thank you! Absolutely love to hear it! 🙏

[@nfranc69]

Wow that's beautifull

[@dgvega3046]

MAKE THIS A SONG PLEASE AND GOSH SCREAMS WHATEVER THE LYRICS WILL SLAP

[@onlyether]

Just found your channel today, and I'm stoked to see someone who produces in a very similar way I do! Also nice seeing someone else utilize OTT, it's a stupidly powerful compressor if used right!

[@cameronpatrick7943]

love this series, keep it up.

[@nameisrubin191]

The almighty KZbin algorithm brought me here. I love your riff and idea and watching you work your way through to achieve your vision! Definitely sticking by for future videos! Well deserved sub! Great video and thank you for your insight.

[@tiredstepdad2308]

I would love to hear this fully finished.

[@markmanbeck5210]

Immaculate vibes, would you ever do a video explaining how you stay in the flow of writing stuff ?
