🎶 **Excited to Share My New Arrangement of "Thriller" by Michael Jackson!** 🎶
I had so much fun making this track come to life in my own style and couldn’t have done it without the amazing gear and incredible people who helped along the way!
**Special Thanks To:**
- **Viscount International** 🎹 for that iconic organ sound—big shout-out to Delroy White for taking it up a notch with some custom tweaks.
- **Yamaha Drums** 🥁 bringing the heartbeat of this track.
- **Audix Mics** 🎤 for capturing the drum sound perfectly.
- **Pianoteq** for that smooth Rhodes sound in the background, adding that perfect touch.
- **Nord** 🎹 used the Stage 4 for some awesome Clav sounds.
- **Surge Synthesizer** 🎛️ powered up tons of synth sounds! Surge is fully accessible and open-source, and for all my blind producers, this one is a must.
Shout out to Mike Gardner for making it all sound amazing with the final mix!
Check out these links to all the fantastic companies that helped bring this track together:

ABOUT GEORGE W. BUSH
Dubya's grandda, Prescott, most likely bought his way out of a life in prison when his bank was closed down by FDR because he was the main banker to the Nazis.
