We are in a severe drought here so I thought that I might as well write an island sounding song.

The drums are from Band-in-a-Box style Montego but I slightly modified them to better fit the song. I deleted all other tracks.

I am playing the bass, guitar, keyboard controller (Marimbas, steel drums, a little percussion).

The shakers and tambourine are loops.

The guitar part is interesting in that I could not get it to sound right. So I went to Melodyne, converted it to MIDI, the picked a nylon string guitar patch. I panned the electric and MIDI guitar parts to the left and right, that way I got the sound that I was looking for.

Note that the Marimba rolls were in the patch but I had to play the Steel Drum rolls.

Let me know what you think.

My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
