Aris Siew
Released in 2010, Make Me Strong is Aris Siew's 3rd album. The album consists of 10 inspiring songs written by himself and other local distinguished talents. The songs were birthed during Aris Siew's intimate devotion in God's presence. They are ideal blessing when used in worship, devotion, prayer and maneuvering in KL traffic!
The title track 'Make Me Strong' is backed by an Afro Asian choir and drums played by leading gospel drummer and a member of Drummer For Christ: Lim Kok Yen. The ever popular song 'Everytime I Pray' is accompanied by nylon and steel string guitars, an African choir and orchestral arrangement. It starts off as an intimate prayer song and ends on a high majestic note that is befitting of El Shaddai! 'Everytime I Pray' is written by Ng Wah Lok and Voon Yuen Wah. For those who like vocalizing positive statements, there is a rap ballad in 'In Christ Is Hid'. This album will inspire you to inner peace, strength and purpose in God. Vincent Chin's melodious saxophone can be heard in 'Leaning On You'.
All songs are arranged and produced by Timothy Lee and recorded at Studio 2105. Mixing was done by JD. Mastering was done in US by mastering engineer Bob Olhsson. David Gary (of Altered Frequency) arranged for 'The Spirit' and 'Most Of All'. His arrangements are modern and refreshing to the album. James Yee (Chenaniah Studios) arranged and produced 'I Need You', a song written by Lourdes Dass.
Joshua Tong, plays acoustic and electric guitar for ' In Christ', 'Leaning on You', 'Every Time I Pray', 'Wherever', 'Make Me Strong' and also 'Life of Purpose'. Benjamin Manuel plays bass on the title track, 'Leaning on You ' and 'Life of Purpose'. He uses a Yamaha TRB John Patitucci 6 string bass guitar.
