Description:
Ember gets a Totally Tubular Make-over with Woodguy's awesome surf-guitar parts and little Brassy bits added (Hawaii-5-Ember?). This is an amazing reworking, and Woodguy deserves complete credit for the distinctive sound of this remix! The original Ember-Rekindled from which this was forged can be found here for comparison:

Artwork is a photograph I took at sunset, Solvang, California.

Hardware:
Drakonis: Dual 1GHz G4
Woodguy: m-audio Ozonic . firewire keyboard interface, m-audio icontrol, one very hopped up Lacie ratfink guitar-wacked and hacked, Quad G5 Mac, Event Monitors, Wood and Sawdust.

Software:
Drakonis wrote and scored Ember note-by-note on "Harmony Assistant" composition software, then MIDI-ported it to GarageBand 2 & chose new instruments & EQed.
Woodguy played guitar, used GB, the iZotope Ozone mastering plugin, and Native Instruments Guitar Rig.

That was good - Hehe - Where did she ever see a wooden dragon on
wheels Too funny - So how many versions are we up to on this one
now, Drak? They are all so different and each one has been well done.
Of course, there was that great start to build from. This is great.
