Excellent work. The changing styles/tempo worked really well in this piece.

Wow, RichRayer, what a tune! This song is certainly suited to its name, that's for sure! The beginning section reminded me of a Philip Glass piece, and then when the guitars kicked in that changed entirely. Definitely attention grabbing - especially with the changes in tempo throughout. I really enjoyed this - thanks for sharing, you should be proud of this one!
Cheers,
Deryk

Thanks Charlie.
I always like to see what can be done directly in BiaB and this piece was an exercise in changing styles and tempos. The interesting thing is that I made the MovieST.sty part of the sub styles with PupLift.sty being a: and b: and MovieST.sty being c: and d:
It worked out better than I thought it would than all I needed to set up was the percentage of speed up and slow down in the bar settings.

Thank you Deryk. It was fun to put this together. The chords are basically the same for the string slow section as the guitars in the fast section. But the styles gave that progression their own feel and flow.
I am glad you liked the piece.
