Here is the second section of this fun tune!
This section started off with the synth trumpets up high. I wanted to put a low guitar riff beneath this to compliment the synths, and came up with this. It can be a great riff for working on hammer ons as well as palm muting.
The first 4 measures are all in E minor pentatonic (m2-5 in the tab). The phrase then changes key to G minor. I chose to do this because I thought it sounded evil and could represent the villain in this wild chase.
Measure 9 is a doozy, there's string skipping and a slide thrown in to really add some variation to things.
If you look at the tab you'll notice that the first note of each measure starts on the & of 4, before the barline. In a way, the & of 4 is functioning as the 1. This is a cool effect sometimes called "pushing", it makes the riff sound rushed and extra energetic.
TAB is attached. Drop any questions or comments down below!
