400+ Years of Hell…rolls on 🇺🇸
My intention was to create music not in the traditional song mode and for others to also join just for the fun of it, and as a challenge for me.
Then I had trouble finding a decent title. The more I listened to it, it started reminding me of life struggles and not a lighter topic; and for my country I always have been troubled by, in my view, our greatest historical disgraceful original sin. Our Civil War 155 years ago ...

Thanks so much, Ernie!!! My ability is so bad in making videos, but I would like to get it done somehow! A work in progress! When I was a kid, history , although real, seemed unreal with visions of glorious heroes,. When I grew up and experienced life, reality set in that innocent people had a lousy life to benefit the ambitions and egos of others!!

Wow Dan, that's awesome for several reasons. Not only because you make great music and here create a musically beautiful picture .. For me is also the statement, and that is politically critical, honest and authentic. A logical story. Together with your description that is absolutely understandable. That means, your sounds come over as you want it. I really hope that you continue on this, your way and look forward to it !.

Thank You so much, Rene!!!! I so much appreciate your so very gracious comment!!! Thank You for taking the time to analyze this!! I just know that certain "sounds" I create remind me of good an bad things about my USA history and creating music for this topic more than any other is like therapy for me so I can live with the horrific acts my ethnic descendants (White Americans) committed to people that did not look like them and to this day still push to keep them down .

Dan, I understand you. But I would like you to make a thematic album in WL. I think that helps you and your optics on the story. But it would help us. Important are the texts. You can also customize this theme from older tracks if you feel like it.
A look into history is good if the facts are true. Often they are hushed up and falsified in the sense of power, and not corrected. +0

Wonderful Track Dan. Really love it. Speaking of the title, When I listened to the shaker in the beginning the title "Dance Of The Rattle Snake" came up to me. :D:DB)
