the story behind the mix,
on sunday march 22, i woke up, not feeling to great, still a bit sick. so, made some coffee and started listening to some music. found a record John wanted me to remix a song from, played the song, then the next song came on, it was it, it just spoke to me. the mix is for someone special to me, they know who. i had just finished, pushing the song in time, time shrinking the song (was at 132, i pushed it down to 124), cutting the samples, made a simple beat, so i could start to sketch out the track.
Majed calls, tells me Chris is in a total freak out, his little sister had just died, and i need to call him. i continue working, then just shut logic down, forgetting to hit save (lucky i pushed the song in time using another program, it’s usually a lot of work), and called Chris.
a little back ground analog:engine was start by Majed, Chris (bob) and myself.
on monday i was laid-off from my job, which i left the city putting everything on hold for…
the past few weeks have been hell, and this is what we’ve made of it
instruments used,
sample – Gerry Rafferty
bass – Juno 106
synth line 1 – super bass station
synth line 2 – SH-32
drums – linn drum & R70
the song was pushed into time using Live. everything else is just Logic, first time we used no external effects:)

Music is a psychic analgesic of the highest order. When expressed from the soul.
(Better even than a dose of Walgreens standard issue “charred root of petunia stewed in a scorpion blood broth” elixir…..if you can imagine such a thing.)
PMA in the face of dismay and decay.
Straight down the line…

Love it!
Just stumbled onto your website, love the track, love the sample, really well done. How did you sync the sampled track to your Logic track?
I’m sorry to hear about your recent bad news.
Cheers
Ed
