A Lesson On Canadian Laws:
[i]A woman in Vancouver, British Columbia discovered that her teenage son was in a homosexual relationship with another teen. When he refused to discontinue the relationship she called the police, who reluctantly arrested the boy on rape charges. Had the couple been heterosexual no law would have been broken.
Paul Bernardo and his wife Karla Homolka where a serial rape/murder team who terrorized parts of Ontario in the 90s. Although both husband and wife were tried for several rapes, they’re sentences differed greatly. Paul is currently serving a life sentence without any real chance of parole in near-solitary confinement; Karla will be released in a few weeks. She has been labeled a “dangerous” offender.
In Canada, and in many other parts of North America, the law differs greatly depending on your sexual orientation or gender.[/i]
that is correct my friend. since i don’t listen to mainstream on my own time i don’t know a whole lot about it, but if that is the sound that you were going for, then good job man. i’m sure you could be commercially viable if you keep working at it
seriously! i’m gonna get some good slide guitar samples, put on my cowboy hat and make a video! yeee-haw!! it’ll be like… techno country!! without the techno sound, i mean. not stupid like “rednex”.
Anyways, a very impressing production, cp3zer0! I have to admit that.
Just the voice could sound more agressive here and there…maybe with a little ‘hidden’ distortion ? And I’m not sure, but could the drums need a least little touch more bass?
But now the good things (listening a several times here):
Very carefully worked on the guitars stereo.
Also the layering of the vocals sounds impressing good.
The voice is clean and beautiful.
The drum progression is also nice and sounds like much work
The choir aahs in the refrain are a very good idea and add a good atmosphere.
The main stereo image and the panning of all the elements shows a patient and careful work.
Perfect song length. Not too short, not too long. Makes me wanna listen it more often.
And the mastering is good though I seem to miss a bit more bass. But hey, let’s blame my headphones for that
Very good job, keep serving us more of these great productions

I’m very new to Renoise, but not new to audio production! So far Renoise has proven to be a more useful sequencer package then most of the other software packages I’ve used.
I’ve got to download and review some of the other Renoise tracks on this forum… some of this stuff that I’ve listened to in this forum is really amazing.
