Dennis is a mentor at our friends Academy the Kohle Audio Kult and has a great new course mixing Ex Ozzy Osbourne Guitarist Gus G’s band ‘Firewind’ who blend elements of traditional heavy metal and power metal.
The song Dennis breaks down, “Ode To Leonidas” is from the “IMMORTALS” album and is one of FIREWIND‘s biggest hits. It’s an epic yet heavy Power Metal banger! There are 32 Lessons and 2.5 Hours of course. A fantastic course explained by one of the best Metal and Hard Rock Producers/Mixers in the business!
