Really cool man, I have ~WAY~ more respect for people in film music then recording artists as I don't "Consume" music cds, or buy or even download them.

And you did all this and did not have to prance around half naked on stage lipsynking to a pre recorded track produced by computers?

Well done.

thank you so much, noiseflaw and Sven (means a lot), really appreciated!

... @Jay- I used to play live a lot (how I started) but moved to composing - in the long run i have been finding it in some ways more of a slog, but also more rewarding. (also, backing tracks scare me a little, unless they have a very good reason for being there!). muchly appreaciated, thank you

thanks so much everyone!!!

should go to mention, even though I didn't use it, Mr borg64 did an alternate mix for me of the tune just before the deadline. helped me see another side of how it could sound and a lesson for next time! so I'm really grateful to him for his generosity!

In hindsight, I'm very glad you didn't use it!
