Story behind the song
Michael Duran; piano, percussion, synth guitar I'm using a new MIDI piano vst from Native Instruments called "The Giant" to get the massive piano sound with the deep rolling bass tones. Percussion was played on keyboard using MIDI based on the melody lines, and voiced with Magix World Drums. Synth guitar was processed using Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5.

love the quick tempo, really rolls along. nice tune!
What a clever and outstanding Irish Jig. The instruments combine for an exciting Celtic touch. The mix of guitars, drums, and piano is especially good!!! Another sweet tune for the CBC 2014 St. Patrick's Day Song Challenge.

Very interested to read how you achieved that wonderful piano sound, it really has a lovely depth and tone. Always impressed by the authenticity of the sounds you create and the perfect production and composition.
