[Fmpro] going loopy - Superhero

Wow.  The bass really tricked me.  I thought it was bass and a few slightly
grundgeded guitars....

You gotta let us know how it goes with the agency, ok?

Best of luck!

Thanks Chris,

Unfortunately, I already sent it to the Ad Agency, so
it's too late for now to make a change, make a change,
make a change.

There actually isn't any guitar in the song. It's all
just one bass part and the drums. My mix philosophy
was to get the power from the drums and bass mostly in
mono, and get the stereo-iss-ness from the double
tracked vocal.

Thanks again!,
