This was our first original, aimed specifically at the really 'down and out'. It was recorded, mixed, and mastered on Voyetra's Orchestrator Pro. Now anyone who knows about sequencing software knows this is one of the worst sequencers known to musician, but hey, it's all we could afford at the time so we made do. It would always reposition the timing of notes whenever we opened the project - even after saving the file. You can even hear some of the timing discrepancies within the song. We lost a lot of hair on this one!

Our next tune was again an original, yet by this time we had upgraded to a better sequencer called Sonar (by Cakewalk). It was a breath of fresh air compared to our first sequencer. Our goal with this song was to present a panoramic view of humanity from the beginning of time to the present and how false doctrines ('lies') are passed down from generation to generation. Religious 'labels' house many of these 'lies of yesterday' set in stone through the 'concrete' of tradition. Oh, and the distant sounding rumble you hear at the beginning of the song ...it's a dinosaur walking on the earth which helps to give it it's 'BC sound'. We had fun with this song.

After we wrote a few originals we were led of the Lord to begin placing large portions of Bible text to music sung verse by verse, chapter by chapter, all with accompaning instruments in a cinematic type style. This way it would be received by most everyone regardless of prefered musical styles, because cinematic music (embedded within most movies) is something we've all grown up with and are 'used to'. So to us this seemed to be the best way to get God's Word into the hearts and minds of those who need it and want to (effortlessly) memorize it through the entertaining vehicle of music. These eight songs incompass the entire Story of the birth of Christ and how Satan tried to keep it from coming to fruition. Soundfonts were heavily used on these.

We recorded this song after a major studio upgrade in audio software and hardware. The EastWest Quantum Leap Orchestra Gold sample library, for instance, was used on this song.

With this song we just knew it had to be given a 'lighter feel' than the other songs due to it's nature.

This song will be ready shortly.
