It was a pleasure to do the mix for this project. I consider this a very tiny (humble) taste of the challenges Trevor Horn and Quincy Jones had with Band-Aid and USA for Africa back in the day, LOL.

I think Andi did a very good job composing this and coming up with the idea to make this a shared performance. All the singers gave their very best and came up with interesting performances, which were fun to mix into the song's arrangement.

But there are a couple of other things to take note of. First, there's the stable and steady bass by Marty. A real asset, I only hope I did it enough justice in the mix...

Second, I read only just now that the lead guitars were actually played by two different guitarists! You can't blame me, I only worked on this project in multi-track view in Cubase (the project was neatly prepared by Anne-Marie, but the tracks view only said: "guitar 1", "guitar 2", "bass", "organ" etc.). Anyway, the guitars sound very much alike which is really functional in this song. Wolfgang's intro guitar sets the right tone immediately, seamlessly connecting to the first vocal part. And the way Dave's main solo kicks in right after Anne-Marie's vocal is simply great.

Well done all!
