All proceeds will go to Child's Play charity, a fantastic cause which aims to increase the quality of life for sick children by donating toys and games to hospitals. We're trying to achieve a goal of $5000!
anyways, uh...
Like what I do? Leave feedback because I'm a massive whore for attention. No, really. Subscribe if you think you'd wanna see more from me in the future. Donate money to sick kids too, that's priority, but yeah I'll be over here.
When I originally decided to cover this track, I kind of realized as I started learning it that it was an incredibly minimalist track with not really a whole lot of material to go on, especially if I was looking for a heavy-ish progressive guitar arrangement, per my usual approach. I guess the timing was appropriate since Mass Effect 4 was just announced at E3.
So I kinda wrote another half of the piece in and made up shit as I went along while trying not to forsake the original completely. Primary influences at play here are Cynic, Born of Osiris, Steve Vai, and Between the Buried and Me. I think it worked out decently, what about you?
