I just saved a ton of money by switching my car insurance to Geico!

No, seriously! I have completed the mixdown of the third Mission Of One CD!

Here's the tracklisting (may or may not be in this order on final copy):

Surrender
Give In To Him*
I Will Worship You
He's Been Good To Me
Man Overboard
Are You Listening?
The End*
I Fall Down Before You
Be Yourself
I'd Do It All Again

As most of you know, I have attempted to do most of my own lead guitars this time around. Songs marked with an * were played by Mark Breton. By brother Darren (our own beloved Sabidoo) is the sole smasher of the skins this time around.

While I attempted to mix in elements of all types of music I like into this project, this ends up sounding very classic rock. Everything from the guitar sounds to the way the songs are written just screams circa 1978-1984. This is by no means a "metal" record, but it is going to rock! Even the couple of slow songs that were meant to be more P&W style come off as more of a classic rock sound seeing that I threw some guitar leads in there, too.

So, what's next? Time to talk to Peak Productions again and see about getting this mastered. Also, it's time to figure out how much I want to spend on packaging and having CDs manufactured.

Sweeeeet!!!
IMO there aren't enough good classic rock Christian release out there, so this will be a welcome addition to my cooolection. (along with the other two Mo1 releases)

Thanks for the update! I plan to add this to Angelic Warlord when I update the sites news section this weekend. Also, do you have a release date or working title?

That's wonderful news.
You worked for a long time at this CD.
Now you are so far that the mixings are done.
Hey ... that's great news.
I am so looking forward to listen to the result.

What's the next step now before the CD is ready for sale?

They are a bit more alternative than my project. But, you would be more in that ball park.

Why did you bring up A Matter Of Faith? Now I've got ANOTHER CD to track down!

I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm not so I won't. Razz

They seemed the closest comparison since FOG is hard classic rock.

I didn't care for A Matter of Faith's first disc. But, they released a new CD in 2007 that sounds pretty cool. I had some $$$ in my PayPal account and ordered it from CD Baby.

I did not realize that they had a new CD out last year, or I might have beaten you to it.

How is the progress with the self titled Mission Of One CD?

Admin Joined : 30 Jan 2007 Posts : 2696

I am still looking into affordable mastering. I'm also looking into pricing options for having CDs made. Until the mastering is done, there is no progress to report.

Not nearly as much as I am! It's been nearly two years since I started this thing!

After hearing the new mix the other day, I am excited about it too. I plan to buy several copies of this one to send to friends, if I ever make any friends.
