AND THE WINNER IS…
SCOTT BORECKI AND RALF TYRA!
IT’S A TIE! 6-6! (30-30)
This contest was INSANE. Wow! So what happens? Well, in the rules it states that in the case of a tie I, Eric Passmore, would choose the winning mix. But….well….I CAN’T!! I WON’T! The people have spoken and I just can’t bring myself to choose a winner – both are winners. SO, I’ve decided to offer both contestants the full Kush Omega series! Congrats guys!
Huge thanks to everyone who participated in this contest – you all rock 🙂
BONUS CONTEST
OLD SCHOOL COUNTRY BALLAD
About 15 years ago, I wrote this old school cowboy ditty called “Thoughts Of You”. I’d never written anything like it (nor have I since) and I honestly can’t remember what possessed me to do so. Saloon love songs really aren’t my thing – honestly they aren’t!!!
Ten years later, I joined a website called “TAXI”, which is geared towards getting songwriters placements in film and television….and guess what?…one placement post described my song PERFECTLY! I was so excited. I thought FOR SURE I HAD THE SONG!
The only problem was I didn’t have a recording of it, and I certainly wasn’t able to sing or produce it myself! So I took a leap of faith…I banged out a terrible demo of the song in my home studio and sent this demo to a professional studio in Nashville. Within 24 hours I had an amazing recording sent back to me, which I promptly sent to TAXI with only hours to spare before the submission deadline!
Aaaannnnd?….I wasn’t selected – lol…BUT, I was left with this charming, live off the floor version of my one and only vintage country song…and now it’s yours to mix 🙂
SONG INFO:

SAMPLE RATE: 48Khz
NOTE: The tempo is 64 bpm, but it won’t line up to the grid when you pull in the tracks – you can choose to align the tracks to the grid if you like but there really isn’t any need to.
