Thank you to all of you who have posted such kind remarks! This was a fun song to write and produce. I really appreciate you taking the time to listen and post!

As to your questions, here goes...

The horns are a hybrid mix of some loops that I have, with a lot of soft-synth horns that I played to give them a more realistic sound, along with a lot of subtle mixing and effects. Put a lot of work in, but hopefully they have a pretty "real" sound. I haven't had a chance to listen on a lot of different systems to see.

Floyd, the vibraphone sound that I think you are referring to is actually a church hand bell sound that I have.

The percussive organ is a B3 soft synth. Yes I played it.

There is tamborine, cowbell, and a few other percussion sounds thrown in.

The snare roll is just one of those fills that I happened upon in the BIAB RD track.

I think that answers the questions. I'm pretty tired after a long day at work, so I hope i haven't forgotten anything.

Once again, thanks for all your very kind words! I hope to get caught up on listening to all your music in the near future!
