Hi, Julien! Many thanks for opinion. What kind of solo sound You visualize in this piece? Can You provide info about similar band/song? About drums -- thanks, I should think over your proposals. Drums was made in Hydrogen, so any changes is possible :) Thank you once more for good words about my work. 2009/11/1 Julien Claassen <julien@xxxxxxxx>: > Hello Oleg! > Thanks for sharing this tune.
