Vincent dePaul – Gradient Rage

Sep 23, 2009 Audio, Critical Mass, Rock, Soundtrack, Vincent dePaul

It was 2007 and I had just been paid an egregious amount of money for doing voice work for Scion.  I was collecting my check from a 24-hour straight session of mixing and mastering an entire country album days before it was submitted to the record label.  For the first time in a long time, my audio career was taking off financially.

So I quit my studio job and took a six month vacation from the world.  Vertical movement be damned!

I added the finishing touches of a long overdue equipment upgrade to the studio and proceeded to go full retard.  Six months of isolation (henceforth known as the Great Shut-In of 2007) interspersed with the occasional visit from the lovely and talented David B. Mitchell.  His tremendous knowledge of Progressive Rock eventually rubbed off on me and, as a result, this semi-epic piece was spawned.  Balls-out horn blasts from Sonik Synth 2 pleasantly startle the nebulousness of the Minimoog.  One day, perhaps a real guitarist will do the lead line.
