Open the Hen House Door is an instrumental piece with a rough bluesy rock sound.
I was experimenting with the push features in biab. Makes a break, then the drums escort you right back in.

This reminds me of when we open the hen's door each morning. They are rushed, and eager to get outside. (Funny picture in my mind at least)
CMJ, Thanks for the imagery. I heard a lot of scrambling going on. The music captures those chickens running all over the place trying to get out.

That is true. They run so fast in such a hurry they nearly scramble their own eggs.
I like this one. Very good mix.

IMHO the only thing I would add would be some Wah-Wah pedal, chickening picking guitar leads in certain sections. Nit-picking for sure but that was the first thing that came into my head as I listened, where is the lead guitar?

Good instrumental.

I think the lead guitar is buried in the mix. this one was a bit hard to mix because of having so many strong guitar sounds in it.
Good song CJ. Just a thought...roll off the mids some in the guitar track to take a little harshness out of the guitar. (IMHO) Otherwise, good job!
