Recorded this demo about 5 years ago. Just came across it. It's probably my favourite version of the song I've ever recorded. Hope you enjoy it.

Alcoholic Synonymous 0.3

Wrote this while in rehab 10 years ago. Recorded it live for my Deliverance album. It's been speaking a lot to me recently. The main thing is having the hope that you'll pull through the other end.

The Passion

Who ever said French horn was boring.... nutters! I needed a break from my usual studio time so I decided to play around with some sounds and effects. I took a French horn sample (the first sound you hear) and added effects from Native Instruments Guitar rig (Traktor's Gater & RingMOD, RESOChord, and a Compressor), That's the second sound. Then I recorded a 4 bar sequence changing the RESOChords using Automation) which is the third sound you hear. I then chopped up a beat, added a bass line using Native Instruments Massive, and then added (eventually) the French Horn sound which now resembles a Gated Chord sequence. Lastly.... I added the melody to one of my favourite hymns. Man I need to get out more!!

Experiments

French Horn

From my new album 'Deliverance' which is actually a collection of my old folk songs. 'Alone in the dark' is the song I wrote for my wife for our 2nd wedding anniversary. 

Deliverance

Alone in the dark

When I decided to put the Lord's prayer to music I wanted to try and preserve the lyrics without adding anything of my own. I've moved things around a little but am really happy with the results. Look forward to trying it out with the congregation. 

Demos

The Lord's Prayer

This is a demo of a new song Revival. I put this together for the band. The song came out of reading Spurgeon's essays on revival, who needs revival, and what revival's all about really. I guess I've heard so many Christians singing with their hands up in the air and smiles on their face asking for revival. I wonder if they really know what they are asking. When God moves mightily in a revival people are broken before they are renewed. There is a whole lot of breaking before remaking by the spirit. In the song I ask God to humble my heart so that I may truly know His presence and for His Kingdom and Glory fall on earth.

Revival

The Damascus road

Playing around with dynamics and studio gear. Recorded this with my shure KSM32 through my UA Twin Finity pre. Added reverb as well as compression through an 1176. It's a rework of an old hymn. One of my favourites.

Power in the blood

Open track of my new album Kingdom Come. The premise of the album is knowing the heart of God and seeking His kingdom.

Kingdom Come

Let me know Your heart

Another track of my new album Kingdom Come with some incredible playing from the extremely gifted Stu Kennedy (www.stukennedy.com). This song is about being reborn in the Spirit of God and then seeing the world from a Kingdom perspective for the first time.

Light Beams

The new 13 track album by Steph Macleod inspired by seeking the heart of Christ and the Kingdom of God.
