Edge of Paradise (2012)
Margarita Monet - vocals
Dave Bates - Guitars & Bass
Gene McEwen - Drums, string arrangement
We recorded this song for the Versailles Records Motley Crue Tribute CD released on November 1st, 2013. I wrote & arranged the string quartet for the intro based on the original theme. I was going for an Alfred Hitchcock vibe. I also changed up the rhythm and feel of the guitar solo/bridge to give it a heavier feel. The drums were recorded at Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, CA. The guitars, bass and vocals were recorded in EoP's home studio. I mixed the song at For The Record in Orange, CA. I'd like to thank Phil Fernandez (of Phil Fernandez Photography) for the video footage from the first photo shoot we did. Please check out Phil's page at https://www.facebook.com/philfphotography.
Margarita does a great job on this song giving it a fresh aggressive feel. The hairs on the back of my neck still stand every time I hear Margarita do the screams in this song. Absolutely wicked!! Dave of course played the bass AND guitars to perfection on this keeping it heavy.
This was released on Versailles Records on November 1st, 2013.
