Process

I didn't listen to the acapella in any other context so I wasn't influenced. I spent a while working out which chord and bass combinations worked well and practised playing the piano part a few times.

I recorded the stereo out from the piano and the MIDI triggered output from ZynSub which was doing a slow attack stringy choir thing into Ardour simultaneously then added the bass guitar after. Finally a bit of compression on the output.

Other Notes

I made up this remix this as part of the rpm challenge under the group name Six Notes with Donald Poland and Elizabeth Williams. RPM album is on Jamendo http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/41153
