Here's some funky mess B'n cookin' up in the kitchen recently. It's called Snoopy's Ghost, and unlike it says in a song from an certain online music site used 2 subscribe 2, this beat won't "suffer TKO". It's called Snoopy's Ghost, 'cuz if U listen real close, U can hear the mouth harp he played in the Peanuts movies. I also managed to create a version of the Linn-era drum "electro" snare-crack. Just click on the link B-low, & if U dig it (or if U don't, but U will, so what me worry?), please let me know here. Pretty please? I'll give U a cookie if U do!

there most likely won't be lyrics to this. This will at best probably only have lyrical elements - not quite as basic as techno/dance music, but not very far from this. If anything, this song, with the others that will make up my first album, will be more like a soundscape.

theres vocals to fly out on that song.....
you might wanna a loop it and
see if you can hear the words....

Hmmm...I started thinkin' about this, and I thought of the lyric I posted here, called "Get Back On The Rhyme" - I think with some tinkering (to make the lyric a li'l mo' sexy), that could work out here. Take a look at it and tell me what you think?

I'd love to know what you do with it!

nup!!! those words aynt it....

i'd know when i hear them..... might even be a chant or 2 in there.....

groovyiau said:

Mm-kay. Help me out, then - what subject matter or topic would you talk about? The beat itself is definitely what I'd call "phat", and it event has a "whomping" sound. Lyrics might go in the direction of the old George Clinton "funk talk"...

i gt an Andre Cymone - Dance Electric kinda thing goin on....

Isaac Hayes - Dont Let Go - for sorta like this kinda vocal style....

and a soft chant in and out in the background like.....
pump.. pump it up pah..... pump... pump it up pah mixed with something else
- starting on the big beat...

and i get a cyndi lauper hay ya!! hay ya!! kinda feel as well.....

could just be the ear was.....

groovyiau said:

so for the chant portion, I might do something like a 2-line chant: 1) "U want this?" 2) Let me in. - how's that?

TANKAEFC said:

might e be good.....

boom.....boom.....boom.....boom
you.....waaant.....thissss.....
.....let me get me .....get me innnn

thats me done.....
looking forward to hearing what it all becomes.....
its a very good vibe thats for sure.....

I imagine it would be fun to try and do something like the lyrics on Purple Rain. I listened to that a lot during the end period of writing for my last book. Many of his lyrics there seemed Sufi-inspired - could be about God, a lover, or a parent.

i spose you could really do anything.....

- it is called Snoopy's Ghost.... is there reincarnation on the horizon?

anyway stop talkin.... "do it or drop it....."

and save yaself some time....

oh, no worries there. it will be released, but these things take time. I am more glad that something I put here got some honest-to-goodness discussion. So if this is the close of this thread, I am feeling like I'm going in the right direction.

I ended up changing the name of the song to "Daisy Hill Funk Farm." It is going on my upcoming album, title TBD.

Okay, guys...I'll give ya'll a chance to add ya two cents...if you could put lyrics to this, what would you write? I've been told (flatteringly so) that it's reminiscent of MJ and Alexander O'Neil, and I have some words that are kinda in the vein of Housequake, but eye jes' dunno...HEPL!

I tried man...THE FIRST TIME I heard it I was just adlibbing like Michael Jackson. The next I was singing "Yoke G.U.O.T.R."
And now that is stopping me from listening to it in another direction. Has that ever happened 2 u?

Can't say that it has, but that doesn't sound like a bad thing (in fact, it's nice to know I sound like ppl I hadn't conceived of) - what are a few of the lyrics to that track, tho, so I can get a clearer idea?
