This song in Honor of the Families of Newtown School Shooting. I was deeply affected by the news the horror of the deaths of the children and teachers.

Elliot,

Dude! I thought this was excellent! Very ominous chords in the verse... (as it it should be) I like the chorus a lot and the interlude part is cool too. The lyrics are powerful, good mix... the song rocks!
Great Job!

Greg

Greg - thanks for the kind words. It is nice to know that someone is listening, and likes my work.

Elliot,

I agreed with all that Greg said. The video was difficult to watch - heart-wrenching.

I was impressed with the overall feel of the tracks - the "rock" in them. If there were RTs involved, it would be nice to know what they were...

Thanks Floyd -
I used Real Tracks for the Drums, Bass, and some of the held guitar parts.

The way I work is; I design the arrangement of the song in BIAB and try to get it as close to my vision as possible, within the limits of the software.

I then export the song as WAV files with Normalise and a flat mix of 110 volume and no panning or effects.

I then import the wavs into REASON or CUBASE (mostly Reason) and then I play real instruments; guitars, bass, keyboards, etc removing some real tracks, editing others.

I then add vocals, and do a final mix.
