Here's the story of the arrangement. I wanted to try the reggae rt's when they first came out and thought this was a good song to do it on but I wanted a faster tempo. So I used the reggae tracks - some at half time since I was way out of range. Then I added everything except the tuba and banjos because they weren't available yet. I got busy on some other projects and time went by.

When I listened to the song again the other night I thought I'd add the tuba and banjos for the heck of it - loved the effect and here we are. Many of the instruments are used in very small snippets that I pull out of what is generated and mix in where I want them. Hope that helps.



Oh and thank you!



Josie, thanks yes it does as it give me a starting point. That uke groove would be pretty square on for the Iz version of Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World.

Cheers
