I've had this on the back-burner for a while. Magnus gave me these groovy beats when I asked for help on my track for NFO project I. Anywho... I'm working on it right now just to do something different. It's not done, it's just a start. It's called Fairuza Blue. There are a few other tracks up there that you may or may not have heard before.

Also, I'm going to be sending PP4 the vocals for Naked so he can add his crazy style to it, and I also got a few collabs going from MySpace. One is a house remix of Flutter by this guy: http://www.myspace.com/strongleafbeats and I'm gonna write lyrics and record vocals for this trip-hop artist: http://www.myspace.com/wizardofodd

So that's what I've been up to. Well, there are a few other things...

nicely done, thats a funky bassline ya got there!

That's hot!!!

Wow, thanks! Manki is good inspiration, huh? I love his beats. That's all him. I did all the music. This is only the beginning. I'm glad you're feeling it already though.

Thanks everyone, for checkin out my stuff. I'm feeling meloncholy today... it happens when I get really enthusiastic and inspired... then I CRASH. I'm pooped! Then I start to think my music sucks. Weird how the mind works to keep a balance this way...

Ok, now this is twice in a row where I couldn't listen to the hi or lo-fi songs on Soundclick. Jeez! How about posting this with Tindeck so I can hear it...

Fairuza Blue:
· #475 in the Electronica charts
· #13 in the Experimental Sounds sub charts


Been a while since I been in them thar charts...

I keep trying to listen to this with MusicMatch it odesn't want to play it.
i'll download real player latter and give it a listen. If it has your voive on it I know it'll be sexy!...

It's instrumental.

What about winamp?

Why do rappers want to act?
Why do actors want sing?
Why do singers with sexy voices to instramentals?....j/k

I was a lil disapointed not hereing your voice.

This track is cool. I like the intro it gets your attention.
The melody is nice too. Try playing around with the fullscale. 4ths 5ths.
The track is layered nice I can here alot of melodies and counters in this.
I know you guys are still working on it. Sounds like its going to hot!

I feel like such an outcast here... everyone has all these funk grooves and I got my "file under other" sound. "Electric Venus Moon" was a bit groovy, but that was recorded around the end of 2003. Oh well, enough self-pity for me... great preview Vina & Manki

Dissonance said:

Thanks for the advice and thanks for listening!

Raijuan said:

I got some "file under other" music too! In fact, I really don't think I'm funky... Thanks for checkin out our work-in-progress!

It's funky like that doo-doo

I finally had a chance to take a listen to this.

I really like it but at a minute and thirty seconds, it makes me want more. I know it's just a rough draft but there's a groove there.

Do you guys like both basslines in this?

Oooh this is really good. I am not sure who did what but all in all it is very good and I really would like 2 hear vocals on it. The keyboard sounds like Vina to me and am right?

paisleypark4 said:

Yeah, Manki just sent me the drum loops and I worked off of them.

VinaBlue said:

Oh ok. I thought it was the other way around. I wish it were LONGER

paisleypark4 said:

I don't program beats like that! I suck. I've got like 5 projects going at once... so they are all moving along slowly.

I wish I didn't have to work 40 hours a week.

Thanks S2dG! I take so long to finish songs... I have to put them away and come back and see where inspiration leads me next... I'll keep working on it. Thanks to everyone's feedback... I'm really surprised how much the word Groove is used in this thread...
