@frauheidi-marie: thanks for your compliments and support Heidi

Positive energy, let's change the world by uniting!

Great track! Like an symphonic orchestra but consists of modern instruments. Guitar parts add tons to dynamic! Thanks for sharing it personally to me.

I love the descriptions in your songs! The song too... of course, but the good descriptions gives light to the music and they are so rare... but not here! Here they are rich of ideas, feelings and technical details... pure beauty and generosity! :-)

All Along The Watchtower (Bob Dylan)

The Beatles - Oh! Darling (Take 2)

We proudly present the pre-release of our first single “Be as One”, the next weeks we will do the finishing touches to make it perfect, but for now we would really like to know what you think, and maybe you can give us some advices as well.

In this version of this song, Andreas Hoffmann http://soundcloud.com/a-live-music-project  joined us to do the solo guitars.

John's original idea behind this song: http://soundcloud.com/onevision-crossworlds/john-styles-we-should-be-as
I came up with this song while I was asked to make some music for a commercial, and while I was making different versions, I thought we as band could even combine them into a song in a bit more Chill Out / Funky Progressive Rock kind of style.

The real title is "We should all BE as ONE to fight hunger, pain and grief" but that would be to long for a title, but that's what I meant to say. 

Because of the latest news, and the subjects on talk shows lately, I was shocked, while so many things happens in the world, they seem to bother and make such a fuss about so many (little) things, and they seem to forget the real problems our world is facing lately. 
I've asked myself, WHY can't we first take care of the real problems, and try to help each other instead of using up all the time complaining about NOTHING (peanuts things), are we NUTS??
We should BE as ONE to fight the REAL problems in the world, and help each other first.

Now the (technical) music side of this piece:
As I already noticed, a lot of people are wondering John and Hip-Hop or Funk??? 
Well as most of my friends know, I like to experiment with all music styles, and try to merge my orchestral sounds with any styles, especially when people tell me it can't be done, we’re all on it immediately.
In this piece we've tried combine / merge many music styles and instruments, and tried to see what instruments could be used.
I believe with all styles of music, an orchestra can do it too with some adjustments, and that's exactly what I am trying to accomplish with this song too. 
Then I’ve asked all members of Euphoriqa to join in, and do their own part with their talents, unfortunately Hemmo still can’t join us, so I’ve asked Andreas Hoffmann to help us with his great talents to play the solo guitars, which I think he did just splendidly.
Many of you already know, that we’ll continue till we’re completely satisfied with it, that’s why we’ll need a few more sessions for the final CD / single release.

Hopefully you'll enjoy it, your comments, critics and advice is very much appreciated our friends, and happy new year to you from us all.
