Crowd chanting "Gay Straight Black White, Marriage is a Civil Right" and "What do we want? Marriage Equality. When do we want it? Now." Recorded during the NYC Lighting the Way to Equality candle light vigil organized by the Marriage Equality New York, a non-profit all-inclusive organization whose mission is to educate the public by raising awareness of the important right of all persons to enter into legally recognized gender neutral civil marriage with all the benefits and responsibilities that entails.

This track was possible mostly because of Ableton Live's ability to wrap beats with not just sound but the video also - this allows me to properly align the crowd chant which is not really on the beat.

Without marriage, committed same-sex couples are denied over 1,138 federal rights and obligations including social security, hospital visitation, co-parenting rights, estate tax, and immigration, just to name a few.
Life celebrates diversity. Life celebrates differences. Life celebrates humanity.
Regardless of age, attire, or build. Regardless of class, color, or culture. Regardless of education, flavor, or gender. Regardless of hair style, income level, or interest. Regardless of life style, location, or philosophy. Regardless of profession, physique, or race. Regardless of religion, role, or sexual taste.
Life is equilibriumism. Life is everything and nothing. Life is all of us and none of us.
