Uses samples from:

 

Tools I Used

MixCraft 6, Line 6 GearBox (guitar), Fender Strat. BOSS ME-25 Multiple Effects for guitar (and wahwah)

Samples I Used

Samples found in CCMixter, looking for a Cappellas. Extra samples from holla-loops (Dirty South Vocals).

Original Samples

Guitar-riffs, Guitar-solo.

Process

I had to split the rap refrain to make it match the rythm and adjust the tempo. This took a lot of work, as did the editing and balancing. The vocals where pushed away by the guitar, so I had to use several plug-ins to get more 'vocal sheen' without losing the heavyness.

Other Notes

I( really wanted to make an 'angry', rockbased track. Usually that musical part of me is expressed in my band Bastardi Di Blues, but now it seeped into this mixe (my personal music is more ambient/chill out-orientated).
