Somewhat deviating from my usual medley style, this year already starts out pretty heavy and somber instead of the much quieter and softer beginnings of previous years.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, download it and listen to it. I hope you like it!<\/p>\n<p>For the nerds, this year&#8217;s medley was recorded exclusively with my brand new Strandberg Boden OS 8, an 8-string guitar, my old Ibanez ATK-305 bass, and using my Roland TD-9 electronic drum kit. Software-wise, the DAW used was Cubase 8.5 Pro with a good sprinkle of various plugins. The guitars all either go through Peavey Revalver or Overloud TH-2 as amp plugin. The drum sounds are from Toontrack&#8217;s excellent Superior Drummer plugin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download Length:\u00a003:18, Size:\u00a07.56 MB A bit delayed this year (it&#8217;s hard to find enough time to record with a toddler running around the house :P), but it&#8217;s finally here.
