About the song:
North Star is my first song. In the demo version you can listen here instruments were emulated by a computer, and vocals were sung by a friend at my home bathroom.
Many thanks to my friend Bodom for her efforts: I know a bathroom... was not your ideal place for singing for first time!
Thanks also to the creators of all the free software I've used. See full details below.
