 ### Loop 1

 A riff based start, where has no grounding until the chords come in. It's not quite a pedal tone because it’s not static, but has that feeling of one line providing all of the color for the other. In this case made it a bit hard to provide a lead line on top of the riff.

 This starting riff feels like a pretty standard noodle for me. What next? The next layer, which chorus, is slightly overlapping the measure which is easy on the looper but was way more awkward to chop in the video. Regardless, the end result, funky. But once we get to the lead layer I was really feeling the swagger on this one.

 Let's not overthink the chord progression. Sometimes we don't need complicated. Standard progression, tremolo go. I like how it keeps it interesting at the end of the loop, creating a bit of tension before it repeats. And that was enough to create a framework for what felt like a pretty fun jam.

 I get full up on electric and need to go back to all acoustic. I play differently. The start here is very loopy to me. Just an idea, throw it into a loop and see what happens. The extra layer is where it can have some emotion and something to say.
 
 ### Loop 5

 A simple chord progression with tremolo. The bass line created the real foundation, that's where most of the motion comes from. That foundation was what the lead parted needed to echo off of. I was happy with the vocal/emotive playing on top of this one, and how long it held up exploring that simple idea. 
 
 ### Loop 6

 This one didn't really come through until the lead section. The chord progression I think was from a song someone asked me to learn, but then I wanted to take it in a different direction. I no longer know what the song was. Anyway, what I started with here is fine; unremarkable. But I felt like the soul really only came in with the solo on top. I'm always trying to play melodically and not just "noodle," and this one felt like it was saying something.

 I had no idea where I wanted to take this loop. But I wanted moody distortion. So that's what I did on top. No solo, just noise.

 That's a Q-tron envelope filter. Then some western-sounding big tremolo chords on top. Sure, why not?

 I started with a more opinionated base layer. That means whatever is played on top as a "lead" layer needs to fit, and be a little more spacious. When it works well it works, this one is… reasonable.
