New tracks... - updated + or - Feedback is always welcome.
Just added "Jordan Alexa"... I ummm "borrowed" a piano piece Prince was playing in Under the Cherry Moon...which I believe is a piano version of Alexa De Paris. [This message was edited Thu May 8 15:54:48 PDT 2003 by chickengrease] | |

Oh shit yea I been waiting for this. Groove Simplistic A "Maybe Your Baby" inspired groove... deep, slow and infectious. I'm still puzzled how/where you find these tones... the guitar is a wah with a flange? Maybe? The keys are fender-rhodes sounding, through a tremolo? This is SOOO 1974, except for the drum machine, which pumps it up to 1982 - as if Kraftwerk hooked up with Stevie Wonder. As usual, the song begs to have more - vocals, a solo, voice-over from a blaxploitation flick, SOMETHING... in it's current state, it makes for fantastic background music. CG - step up to the mic. Let it go. [This message was edited Tue May 6 14:38:31 PDT 2003 by otan] The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

Everything you guessed is correct except the drums...it's actually a Remy Shand sample (The intro to Looking Back On Vanity) I just added a kick and a handclap. One of these ol' mornings I will get a digital multitracker... | |

One of these ol' mornings I will get a digital multitracker... Dude I wouldn't change a thing if I were you - you're on a roll with however it is that you do your thing. Changing tools changes the music. I went over to the Midi side, and my music took a nose dive, just cuz it's not the way I've recorded all these years... and I just can't take 2 years to learn a new way to record. So, yeah, the keys in my songs will continue to sounds like chopsticks, but the songs will thrive. If I stuck to midi, the keys would sound good, but the rest of the song would pee rasberry lemonade.

ChickenGrease- I love this stuff and I agree with Beau. "Groove" needs some low vocals talkin in parts and maybe even a chorus of gospel singers. You're awesome! Keep it up! | |

Your NFO track has some skipping at the begginning. Do you have an updated version of this song or was the skipping intended?
Thanks! | |
