thanks for your insight and pointing me into the direction of the c7, f7 chords. i should try to play those chords as a pad sound to hear how this fits and feels. instead of a simple c maj, f maj arpeggio.
because i know only a little about music theory, i have a question for you.
i`m making a cover of the paperboy main theme and recognized that the lead and bass playing their melodies in c minor, while the arps are playing in c major scale (c maj and f maj) most of the tune.
my deepest goose bumps go down to return to castle wolfenstein. got really scared in the neck when playing the catacombs alike level by using some "sticks" (nah,it`s not a weapon itg) and beer while listening over the headphone. it it was quite adrenalin containing, too.
