I wrote such a great review before, and lost it to the aether - lol! I think it's the nature of absurdity, and no surprise really that the cosmos would do this to me!

Have you ever read _L'Afrique Fantôme_ by Michel Leiris? For some reason when I listen to this song I think of ethnographic surrealism. Music for the self-aware.

Before, my curiosity led me off to see what parallel Wilson Cheval's I could find currently on the internet. Most links led me to a commercial site in France selling the Safari addition of Mr. Potato Head. Naturally, I couldn't do this twice.

Somehow I think it speaks directly to the condition of your victim, the MeatPuppet EveryMan, AKA that loser Wilson Cheval. It's an existential problem to be sure.

And makes for a very good track!

Nevermind you lost your other review,this one was great!I like your interpretation but the real story about the name is a lot more absurd!I was at my sister's and we saw that name on the intercom:Cheval means Horse in French and the whole name sounds really weird in my language so we thought it might be a cool character name like a French loser version of Clint Eastwood,lol.I tried to exaggerate the sadness and solitude of the character in the music and lyrics.
Glad you like it

Nice story line....Sounds like an old western with a new twist...Cowboys with Ford F-150's instead of horses!

You're a very talented storyteller with your songs! I really dig this one, it sounds finished without being over-produced. Wayne's subtle percussive treatments really work for a song like this. I like the rawness and the honesty of it. Great work!

Yeah, I'm hearing a bass in this and maybe for it to break into some drums, a full--but sparse--band. Has a very 60's feel to it. Me likes! :)

yes - you have another really great one - love the minimalistic percussion approach for this one - it would still be a great song ... but so different if you had a full drum kit going here -but you did this one perfectly appropriately to get the feel of the song across- at points no drums at all - wow - i never think to go that way - thank you! Oh... and nice singing too, French kid!

some nice ideas here brother...the production needs a little work but I'm sure you already know that.. the vocals need to come down in the mix to stop that clicking.. other than that like i've already said there are some nice ideas.. keep 'em coming brother

Thanks for the review.You're right concerning the production,I highly appreciate your constructive criticism.I remixed the track and added a lead guitar track and Wayne added some percussions if you wanna listen.
Thanks again

Description : Felt it was time for another big powerful EDM techno project. A good share of the sequencing was done on the Korg EMX1 "big blue" as i refer to it. So here is something to get butts outta seats i hope. Enjoy.

Description : A song of repentance, grace, and redemption, Second Chance reflects on our failures, the pain of misplaced trust, and the unfailing love of God. No matter how far we stray, His arms remain open, calling us back into His light and offering us another chance to begin again.

Description : A collaboration with legend mick gordon. There is no singing in this song other then me doing light hollering.
Playing styles in the track:
Synths: Bright 16th-note arpeggiated sawtooth/pulse leads for an energetic electronic layer, along with smooth atmospheric poly-pads. There is more but no room to list here. A collaboration of this scale with mick gordon was $12,500 usd in english $2500 usd a min. So rest assure this will never be made again. The song is called ILL not dracula.
