We're always getting questions on what MIDI controllers we recommend.  There are many great keyboard controllers in the market today, but the Axiom Pro 49 keyboard controller by M-Audio really stands out to us on both quality and value.   The keyboard comes with premium TruTouch action, proprietary HyperControl MIDI mapping technology and a host of pads and faders that are great for MIDI and MutliTrack triggers.

This week we are releasing another track from Paul Baloche's recent album The Same Love. The song 'Look Upon the Lord' is a fantastic duet with Paul and Kari Jobe. This song begins with piano, vocals and strings creating a beautiful symphonic sound and progresses to an anthematic chorus declaring  "You are good and Your mercy will endure, You are good and forever we are Yours.  Eighteen stems are included in this well orchestrated MultiTrack.  

Saddleback Church worship leader and new Integrity artist, Travis Ryan has released his newest single "Fearless," off his debut album Fearless. This song brings to light the issue of spiritual warfare and talks about the importance of driving out all fear and declaring that when we are in Christ, nothing can sway our identities.  The MultiTrack for"Fearless" is filled with rock guitar riffs, driving drums, and rich ethereal keyboard pads.  If you are looking for an uplifting song then "Fearless" is a great to encourage your congregation.
