	Delay heaven, layers of lovely guitar.
	Story Behind the Song This piece utilises a very precise and accurate picking pattern in conjunction with a delay that's exactly 1 and a half beats long. (as used by EVH on Cathedral, Nuno on 'Flight of the Wounded Bumblebee' etc) Use a digital delay with no feedback and slightly mute the notes to get the timing clear. I play this at 130bpm - this technique can either be used like here to create an arpeggiated effect, or if you slightly lengthen the gaps between the struck notes, a harmony. Only the former here, with three guitars creating a fugue, and a lead guitar melody coming in half way through. I thought this was a nice piece, and this stereo version pushes out the different sections a bit more and has them moving across the spectrum well.
