Uses samples from:

Original Samples

everything that is not in Julius' original upload.

Process

I fought like hell to put this together. The recorded parts were not synching up (I later learned my ASIO driver was turned off), so I had to record the piano MIDI and put it through a Soundfont... I had to drag all the guitar fills ahead 1/100th or 1/200th of a second, as that was out too.

The beat is a hybrid of 144 bpm and 72 bpm parts. I think it is more 144 than anything, as the drums are that in 4/4 time.

Other Notes

Very frustrating...a pad I put down is invisible and I don't think it rendered. but I do like the end result.
