Description : This song is the creation of my son Alexander (14) using an ipad with the awesome Korg itribe app for the beats & the unbelievable Korg synth app for the bass and other pad sounds. He recorded the layers down into Logic 9, then he added a alto sax solo and a breath taking keyboard solo using his M audio keyboard patched through Logics mainstage to create that authentic 80s lead synth sound.
I have layered the horn section parts and recorded the end guitar solo using a digitech RP 50 multi effects box.
This is the first mix, so if you hear anything that needs tweaking don't forget to mention it as this is getting pressed onto a cd album.
Im' totally blown by these apps from Korg! They didn't cost much but they have added real value to the tools we producers and musicians can use. Top stuff!!!

Cheers, Slap...

Incredible track. Its definitely in the genes. Thank you for blessing us all with your amazing talents.

Vicen 27th May 2011 04:59 - 15 years ago

A wonderful piece. Wonderful sax and synthesizer. A large sound stage. My congratulations.

Hi Vicen, I'm pleased you like this track as it's Alexander's first proper track. More will be following soon...
Cheers, Slap...

Never used an Ipad but I've seen them....technology never ceases to amaze me....Well chaps I can see(hear)the emergence of Alexander's own sound happening and it's a very cool thing to behold indeed..love the phrasing,filthy bass line and signature Saxophony but the synth playing floored me..wow!....Look,if this is an indicator of whats to come,is there any chance I can buy some shares now! lol...Quite apart from enjoying this very groovy music,it's a privilege(not trying to sound soppy here,but it's true) to witness the growth that's happening within your musical family.....one day in an interview you'll be reminiscing about tracks such as this one....FDUB! (fair dinkum unfuc*ing believable) Dave :)

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Now then Dave, hows the epic track coming along with the Geoff Boycott narrative lol.. The world of ipad and apps especially for music related projects is pretty vast mate. The two Alexander used on this track were just scratching the surface, time permitting over the next week we should have this whole album in the can and finally mixed and ready for pressing. I have to thank you for your continuing support on so many levels, your wise words mean a lot to us both. Edinburgh best look out when Saxobones arrive in town from August 5th....

Cheers, Slap...

Hi MaxJC, Thanks for digging the funk man...

Cheers, Slap...

danbo 26th May 2011 18:48 - 15 years ago

Funk yes, closed to jazz rock, sure ! really beautifull piece, as usual !

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hi Danbo, Glad you dig! Alexander will be thrilled that people are into his creation.

Cheers, Slap...

theHumps 26th May 2011 13:14 - 15 years ago

Hey Slap, imagine if we had this technology when we were kids just getting into music....... Sounds like the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree, way to go guys, sounds great. You never seem to disappoint!!

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hi Wayne, I wonder how far technology will have advanced when Alexander reaches my age! Ipad is an awesome piece of kit which can cater for all interests due to it's extensive apps. I would have loved to have one of these when I was younger, but alas I had to make do with Pacman! lol...

Cheers, Slap...

Peres 26th May 2011 12:20 - 15 years ago

Love it Slap,really good stuff,great production. Your son is one heck of a musician. I am so tempted to get an ipad, it's so darn versatile!

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hi Peres, I've had an ipad for a while now but very rarely have chance to use it due to Alexander or my wife who are always using it. These apps are awesome and not expensive which is a bonus seeing how much the ipad costs, but it was a worthy purchase. I would buy another if I could lol....
Cheers, Slap...

WaPer 26th May 2011 10:43 - 15 years ago

WOW! Great track, like the sax part and amazing synth solo....
Only the backing keys are a bit louder for my taste but, all in all this is a great track. Kudos guys.

CHEERS!
