[...] quoted in the gospels as well). I played with the autotune a bit more. I liked what I had done with Nothing But The Blood and carried some of that over into this [...]

Haha, thanks Dean. I don’t necessarily see this as being used in a normal church worship setting, as much as a creative exercise.

For some reason I thought of “Video Killed the Radio Star” when the first chorus hit. :-)

Nice! Creative! I don’t know that I’m going to steal this version for use during worship, but I loved it.

Yeah, autotune. Funny thing, I’ve tried to use autotune / vocoder stuff before, for about 10 years, and it never sounds like it’s turned on unless I deliberately sing differently. The first studio engineer I worked with thought something was wrong with his equipment. I tried to put some on Awesomesauce, but it just didn’t sound different to my normal singing…*sigh*

But I pretty much like everything else about this Russ – great rearrangement of a great great hymn. And some of the autotune does actually work quite well too – just might be a bit tooooo much of it – haha.

Yeah. Send a version without drums. I want to put some live drums in it!

The feedback is actual feedback from my acoustic guitar run through an amp simulator really close to the laptop mic. Haha. Pretty rigged, but I got the sound I was looking for!

wow.
Interesting.
I’m not a fan of the autotuner either…
I will say this: I REALLY like the groove – the feel of the song – and the breakdown verse…
and the drums. I heart drums.

How’d you get that feedback tone bringing it all back in?

I love the old hymns – but I am learning to like the re-mix as well! :)

I want music that can touch a 65 year old heart Russ, but I first need to concentrate on having a heart that can be touched – that has to come first.
