Actually, I REALLY like the groove, but it gets boring after awhile - gotta add some more stuff. Being that I know JACK about chords on piano (just picked out notes that sounded good together) adding new stuff is a trip. http://www.blindslim.com/...c_0303.mp3 Maybe I'll go in and make it an instrumental. Give me some suggestions. There's not a lot going on in it right now. WHo cares? | |

OTAN-
First, don't give shitty posts your energy by responding. Everybody is on ths site, not just the cool people. This song is really cool! It inspires me to get my stuff online. I've got to get some web space like you do. I can't believe how clear and well produced it sounds. What are you using hardware and software wise. Or maybe you have a studio or something... Oh yeah, I used to be JamesMarshallHendrix. | |

Oh yeah, I used to be JamesMarshallHendrix. Thanks Man. I got a Zoom MRS-1044 10-track digital number - drum machine built in - it's really amazing. Got it for $500 new. The keyboard is some casio/yamaha generic thing, just for knocking ideas around with. The guitar I got for $60! Mexi-Telecaster. So there you go - Grammy quality on a white-trash budget. Well. not grammy, but LaMont seems to think so. The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

That's one of my alltime favorite records. Never saw the similarity til you mentioned (well... never being, between tonight and last week when I took the photo - you get my drift). Hunh. So pic 1 is the one to go with. Thanks for your input. The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

I've read your other response to mixing but just trying to pick your brain. Again, I'm asking because it sounds so good. [This message was edited Wed Mar 26 8:23:41 PST 2003 by Slave2daGroove] | |

I was up til 2 last night reworking it though - adding a lead line to make the song more interesting. I oughtta have a better version up in a couple of days.
