Fr​è​re Jacques' Minor Key Jaunt

by Whetzel

/

about

I think one of my musical strengths is coming up with unique versions of familiar tunes. Here I bring baglama, sarod, electric guitar, nylon string guitar, and mandolin to Frère Jacques. The beat is made from kicks, snares, and high hats from my kids drum kit plus dhol hits, claps, snaps and 808s. I play with putting the song through a round as is traditional and also flipped the melody harmonically a couple different subtle ways. And I also spiced the rhythm a bit on the keyboard part. I hope you enjoy it!

I recorded, mixed, and mastered this track on Ableton Live.

Shout out to Nogymx for invaluable mastering plug in suggestions!

I used Abby Road TG mastering plug in by Waves, the Pro-L 2 by FabFilter and Soothe2 by Oeksound, and Ableton EQs and Utilities to master this track.
