HI, this song is for lovers of guitar rock instrumentals , I wrote it 2 years ago and its taken until now after countless tries to be satisfied with the mix.

You have a good mix there with the harmony guitars, it's really quite a catchy hook that's still in my head!
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Nicky , it seems lately , mixing has become alot easier after putting in place some recently understood theory and techniques.

Ahhh...nice...love the guitars!
Well played, arranged and produced with a nice stereo image. I like the twin guitars, and the solo reminds me of early Joe Satriani. What drums are you using!
Nice job!

Thanks Markus, the drums are Ezydrums , it has taken me a long time to try and get them to sound natural.as for the solo section , Joe Satriani is really the guy who got me into this stlye of song , I tried to emulate the emotion and feel he puts into his songs , although I can only dream of being able to play like him.

I think anyone who plays must share that dream.

But Satriani is not just a great guitarist, but an excellent tutor too.
He is brilliantly fluent in advanced music theory and a complete technique and theory nerd. Something to keep in mind!
Stay in tune, Mark
