The Arranger, errr Korg PA 4X seems to pull me in directions for a song I WOULD NEVER GO MYSELF...When I am tracking a song sometimes I have no idea what I'm gonna use STYLISTICALLY & from where. IT SEEMS I STUMBLE UPON SOME IDEAS ...

"Cry of the Young" was written 23 years ago for a play as a TITLE TRACK...With World Events & the riots, my daughter asked me for a copy of this 23 year old song to give to a Big Rapper friend of hers so I had to start working on a quick demo...My only prior release of the song was simply Piano, drums & vocal, so this version is way different from my original...

There is still work to be done on this track, (strings, elec guitar, Synth patch in final chorus, maybe some pads, BGV's etc) so if there is anything you may feel is out of place, or you have something to add, please bring it to my attention. Also, on my Home Demos I don't use pitch correction, I do old fashioned punch in, so if something on the VOX bugs you, now is the time to mention it. The keys clash a little in a couple of spots, & I will need to iron a couple spots out. (I am mixing on new headphones so I am sure my mix is off compared to my normal mixes. NOTE: I will fix the ending....The last half of the song needs a couple things, but not sure what yet,,,

Anyways, I will send it on to the Rapper immediately once completed, but concurrently, I am going to put this to VIDEO first myself & release an updated version.
