If modern worship songs were recorded in the 1980’s, what would they sound like? Would there be influences of Boston, Journey, Phil Collins/Genesis and other groups in the sound?

I think so.

This arrangement of Let God Arise by Chris Tomlin, Ed Cash and Jessee Reeves is straight out driving rock! PLUS horns! This arrangement is written in the original key and includes a lead sheet so if you want to do this song as a vocal version, you can. This is a guitar feature for the instrumental version. This one is ROCKIN’!!!!!!

Many modern churches, through inception or adaptation, are utilizing a rhythm driven style of music. What I have tried to do through AnderKamp Music’s ‘Horns & Rhythm’ series is to create arrangements that are based around the modern rhythm section BUT that also feature a horn section. My purpose is intentional…to give more instrumentalists the opportunity to use their gifts to glorify God.

 

Horns & Rhythm – Retro Worship

 

Today’s worship songs with an 80’s sort of twist to them. You’ll hear obvious Boston, Journey, Genesis and Chicago type influences throughout the entire series. But most importanly, you’ll hear creative arrangement of modern worship songs that utilize both Horns AND Rhythm throughout!
