Go behind-the-scenes as Robert uses his $99 Squier Mini Strat to add a pair of atmospheric guitar parts to Cosmic Spin's upcoming original song "Messenger."
Sometimes a straightforward song can become dull after a couple of verses. Want to perk up listeners' ears with some CHIME and SHIMMER? A great producer's secret is Nashville Tuned guitars — in this case, electric guitars — with the bottom four strings tuned up a full octave higher than normal. (Yes, it requires special guitar strings!)
How would you describe that sound? Angelic, magical, airy? Find out in today's video, as Robert celebrates his birthday with part 2 of a guitar overdubbing party!

Written by Robert Cassard
Performed by Bara Waters & Robert Cassard
