The way of wyrd pt 2

[knniggits]

This is a little over indulgent to be honest,coming in at over 9 minutes. But seeing as the song completely changes at around 4 minutes its worth hanging around   I absolutely feel like i'm running before i can walk with this one and i've learned a lot in the process and thats what it's all about i guess. Its not really pt2 its more of a re-write,i just couldn't think of another title  
Here's a link for a higher quality version

This is inspired by the book"The way of wyrd by Brian Bates"

'The threads of wyrd are a dimension of ourselves that we cannot grasp with words. We spin webs of words, yet wyrd slips through like the wind. The secrets of wyrd do not lie in our word-hoards, but are locked in the soul...'

This is absolutely stellar prog tune Knniggits!! Very 70's vibe prog! Fantastic guitar work both on electric and acoustic guitars. I can't find words, but I downloaded this right after listening. The production is also very fine - sounds good though you had to lower the bit rate! Brilliant and ambitious job!!

Blimey, how cool is that?  Right up my alley.  Loved it.

this is very familiar as is the title, is it a reppost or remix, very very impressive indeed.

I posted another version of this back at the beginning of the year hence in the name pt2. Although it doesn't seem to appear in my songs section for some reason This version was recorded from scratch again,the arrangement and riffs changed a fair bit.I posted the acoustic track for this a couple of months ago.

If this is running before you can walk...then all I can say is keep on running...absolutely fantastic in every way...Guitars are recorded very well...bass...fantastic drums...Is that real drums?  full arrangement.  I need to set my mind on trying to do an arrangement as insane as this one day, I love it.  You are telling a real story with music here.  It sorts makes me think of "Caress of Steel" era Rush, very melodic and very structured and pretty heavy too.  All guitars, bass and drums here hu?, no synths in site.  Very cool song and well done...Bravo.

[knniggits]

No synths,just like it says on Queens first album   It would sound cool with some synth at the end though  
I'm a huge Rush fan,seeing them next year  
Drums were made with Beatcraft,you can arranged your own beats and use any drum sample you like for individual drums,very cool and only £20.
Mixed in Mixcraft,added some cymbal hits here.
