Information:

 This tune is the result of major difficulties. First off,
 I had this catchy melody in my head for months before I
 started to track it. Then when I did, it sat on my HDD 
 for weeks before I decided to have a go at it. I had
 actually started learning the guitar, and so edited the
 melody with volume and offsets to get it more realistic.
 About 2 weeks later I decided to work on it once more,
 and added the guitar chords, using note delays to 
 replicate the way the hand brushes over the strings.
 Then I managed to get some personal problems effect my
 life, and amidst my depressed and confused state I added
 the wind, rain and thunder to the tune and it somehow
 added so much more atmosphere to it. Following this I 
 sent the tune to Lemm who fine-tuned the samples for me
 and told me to 'change the repetative percussion'. So I
 got Ballistique in to do that. Then we drank a whole
 unopened bottle of Kirsch (45%) between us and ended up
 'sozzled' (thanks Lemm!), After doing about 100 different
 endings to the tune, I decided the best one was to fade
 the music out in the same way it begins.

 This has been a BASTARD of a tune to track. I hope you
 like the end result! :)

Until next time....
