Hello everyone
At the beginning of this year 2025, I told myself that I had to make good resolutions by stopping making syrupy ballads about insipid love stories. So I warmed up the tubes of my Marshall and in these troubled times brought out the sheriff so that he could put some order in this world.
There is a lot of electric guitar in this piece: 4 Real tracks and 3 audio tracks.
Mixed in Cubase. Guitar tracks: Tonex, amplitube 5.
Drum and Bass tracks generated in Midi by BIAB and taken up by Modo Drum and Modo Bass respectively.

I didnt know it was an instrumental, so I was waiting for your vocals ... hahaha. Nice guitar work and tones. Great feel to the backing tracks, good mix and production, and like the AI Video.

A great ride-along instrumental. It sounds like it could easily be turned into a rocking sung song.

#58: Bring consciousness to it.

You did a great job with all those tracks.
Excellent work by you and the session guys.

As floyd said, "rousing!"

The fine mix that would sound great as a TV series track.

Well done!

Four guitars is not a lot when each has a different role, and, man, you used them so well in this, Laurent. Love the sax, too. Such a good mix with so much to love in it. Hey, what about that video? Outstanding there, too, Laurent. You captured some of the best of teh West.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Laurent,

This track sounds exceptionally good! Those drums really caught my attention to begin with and then I really caught on to how good the guitar work sounds! You have a great big full sound here that is pro level!

Thanks, TB

Hi, Laurent.

Enjoyed the tune!

Nice work on the guitars Everything ties together well, with a good variety in the arrangement.

I hadn't realized the tenor sax was a native American Indian instrument. You learn something new every day. (The length of the pistol at 2:30 is hilarious.) laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

LOTS of guitar - cool playing too.
I enjoyed this but thought the sax interjections were a bit loud.


Cheers
