Hard to match what he can do, but that's to be expected considering the difference in experience between the two of us.


Not entirely satisfied with this performance, what with trying to mix the piano properly to avoid distortion, trying to get the compressor right, etc. The hard part about this song, personally speaking, is keeping the tempo steady. It's easy enough to do in the first half of the song, but once the passage starts with the 16th notes, it becomes way to easy to gradually speed up.


I had started with a bpm of about 62, which is pretty good, considering I didn't have a metronome playing, and once the 16th note passage started, I slowly started to speed up, culminating in a bpm of 70 in the final part. Not the worst thing in the world, but definitely something I can improve, as well as the few fat fingerings I made throughout this performance.


I definitely recommend that you check out Lee Galloway perform it himself. Considering he's the one who arranged this version, he's probably the best person to, as well.


Peace
