You're right - I posted the lyrics and a rough draft in the Songwriting forum a while ago.
We're still waiting on our distant drummer....
This tune is a mixture of a few styles - rock/latin/pop.... It's got a lead guitar running throughout which is a little reminiscent of the stuff that Santana has done lately although I don't match his skills or tone.
There’s a few new things going on in this arrangement that affect the mix.
Mike has some different settings on his bass. The bass sounds nice on Mike’s BOSE 301’s, and on my TR8 monitors. It’s almost like keyboard style bass with its low frequencies. Well, we like it anyway.
The drums are written in midi and then played through a Yamaha DGX305 recorded to an audio track.
The lead guitar is my Eric Clapton Stratocaster with the mid boost cranked, through the clean channel of my Marshall JCM900; the preamp gain turned up to about 75%.
Both rhythm guitars are done with my Kramer Imperial with 40% gain through the Marshall. All guitars are mic’ed with an SM57.
Vocals are done through a Rode NTK with some mild compression and some automation.
The tracks were all recorded onto ADAT then downloaded into Sonar using an Alesis IO/26.
I’m mixing this in the computer and I’ve now got a four band eq, parametric style, with variable frequency and shelving on each channel (although I used it sparingly).
The entire mix is sent through a PCM80 for reverb and a Triple C for compression.
Let me know what you think once you have a chance to listen…..

More boomboom makey guitar muchly yumyum. 
True - it's full but not defined. I'm weighing the plus and minus of this type of bass sound...
I think the lead guitar is providing that fuzz. It's coloring the mix IMO.
Agreed....
Yep - that's the "new" bass sound we got with this set up which agian I'm kicking around....
Well, I accidentally deleted my win32 partition a year ago. Lost all the masters of everything I ever recorded. Lost all the waves. All that remains are my 320kpbs mp3 on some songs that I was too nerdy to encode lower and mail to myself in gmail for portability. Some pieces are in 192 kpbs. Downloaded some from soundclick at 192kpbs. That is all. 
It's overrated. Texas FTW!!!!!
You and too kind man.
All the software I had was software I had helped myself to from "internet" and wanted to go legit eventually. I took the crash as a time to wait until I can afford the music software that I use for recording. Getting ready to spend 4 Texas pennies ($400) on fl studio. Maybe Acid Pro or Pro Tools for mixing. Haven't decided. Haven't recorded anything since.
Installed Linux and tried all open source apps to synthesize and mix the way windows world was. Well, turns out Linux is great if you wanna do more regular (web surfing, file sharing, coding, office suite'ing) kinda things. But for music it was lacking. Linux desktops are also much less responsive (slower) than windows.
There you have it. Doubt that you wanted to hear all that but hey that's what you get for asking.
On the hurricane front, Ike was in Texas but I was in Cali. Went road tripping for the summer to Cali. Jumped in the car and drove on out.
