Hi guys and girls,been a mix up of work and illness but back to what I like doing best.
This song is about a guy who is trying to get to his destination after an ultimatum from his partner and it's all going pear shaped.
Hope you like it.

Hypnotic video Kenny. Glad your voice is back. I'd love to know what is involved in making a video.
Cool tune as well. Congrats!

Well written song and so well performed and sung! It's fine to hear your voice is as it was before!

Great video art as well! Top class job on each way!

That is a cool vid, but I have to agree that the song is killer on it's own. I scrolled down and just listened and enjoyed it very much. Good vocal, it stands out as very well performed and i love that melody over the solid backing.

That was cool of you to include the credits at the end.

Excellent work Kenny. Great song and very impressive sounding production, very full and polished. What did you use for the instrumentation?

The video is great, how did you do that? I like the way it goes all 2001 at the end.....

Thanks mate,I started building up the drum parts 1st using various kits then added my Michael Kelly guitars,I used my midi keyboard through my focusrite iPad studio set up and used an app called crudebyte for to build up the string parts and piano parts.
For the robot type voice I recorded into garage band using an effect in that  then double tracked it in the studio.
All the music was played straight live,I.e.  sound on sound style,no programming or pasting.
I like the way some songs can turn around while being played from start to finish,not a great fan of modern teqniques lol,I'm old school.
I like building up string sections ,time consuming but fun.
The video was done using Sony Vegas ,it's been a hobby of mine for some time,but I used some royalty free clips along with footage I had filmed and mixed them together.
Thanks for asking.
