I started out with a guitar melody over the kick/clap beat, but it did not fit, so I ended up reversing it, which turned out to be cool enough to provide a background for the intro and through-out the song. I'm not super excited about the piano lines, but couldn't come up with anything past what they are. I tracked additional acoustic for the high delay sounds running through out as well.

Drums/claps/strings/piano done in Reason. Guitars/mixing in Pro Tools.

THE BUILDER

This piece did not have any direct inspiration from anything specific. It just started out with the initial riff, which included a 2nd part that I cut which sounded a little too "Jack Johnson".

Recorded with my Taylor 414, loops/samples from reason with the exception of the main drums. tracked/mixed in Pro Tools.

Thanks for listening

NEVER EASY

Tony provided this exercise on the podcast to help anyone attempting to navigate a difficult decision or situation.  This exercise provides clarity for decision making.  

I attempted to clean up the audio a bit, and added some original music for emotional intensity.
