Description : New and final mix on this through a pair of Yamaha HS50M monitors. This is the last song from our forthcoming cd release. "To save this love" features a six piece horn section including a baritone sax for that added Motown line. I recently bought a secondhand Cry Baby wah pedal and WOW this thing = instant funky shaft sound and feel... I have recorded the vocal parts lead with a octave down harmony to thicken it out slightly. I have also used vocal counterpoint at the end of the track to finish it off and I think it works pretty well!
As this is going onto cd all comments are welcome towards the general mix of the track, so if you hear something let me know. All instruments on this one I did including the vocals..

Cheers, Slap...

Man, this track is crazy. I love everything about this. You have a great voice and I love the sax. It has a melody that everyone could dance and sing to as well. Very cool sax. Great job on the track my friend. Keep up the great work.

Planetjazzbass 8th Jun 2011 10:53 - 15 years ago

Crazy man!...You've got a great set of pipes,and this is my only criticism of this super track..Bring the vocals forward in the mix!lol..people always tend to back off with their own voice levels(strange but true)...seriously fantastic track buddy,Baritone Sax is one of my fav sounds and when it's incorporated into your trade mark horn section it blows me away...bass line is wicked!...ahh the WahWah pedal..do you realize I'm a certified WahWah repair man (in my own lunch box that is)lol..give the modulation pot a good squirt of crc,rp7 or whatever brand penetrating spray into it's innards with the extension tube and the thing will be like new.....nuff said...super FunkoRhythmic vibes!!..cheers Dave

Hi Dave, just in the process of getting quotes for 1'000 copies of this album to be pressed. I have loaned a pair of Yamaha HS50M flat response monitors to try and get the best mix I can... We need to tweak one or two solos as Alexander's not happy with a couple of notes here and there ( That's perfectionists for you )! I change the vocals on be with you Dave, it might be worth your while having a listen as it now features Fiona. She has brought a wonderful sensitivity to the track.
I'm hoping to get the whole thing finished by the first week in July ( pressed and packaged ). How many copies would you like me to send?
Cheers, Slap...

TraXnCtrl 8th Jun 2011 05:40 - 15 years ago

Great work Slap...and i think this is the first time I have heard your vocals so big props for that.....very funky sound and perfect production.....I am sure the CD will do well
Faved,

Hi Trax,
Thanks for giving this one the once over.

Cheers, Slap...

Hey Slap! I love this song, I did not know you could sing like that, really good!
Everything is great only thing I dont like are the bass and the drums, it sounds so "white" if you know what I mean, the bass part should be played by brasses not by a bassguitar in my opinion, it is a nice part but not for a basguitar, and than some parts not all the time ofcourse. Bas and drums really need a lot more attitude, why dont you try a good bassplayer see what he makes of it, there is a great basplayer on Looperman, Badhuman!
But again very very nice song, great brasses and great vocals, thumbs up.
Paul.

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hi Paul,
I know what you mean by sounding too white lol... If this cd does well and we can fund another I would like your help in the process as I value your opinion and production skills. Again time is not on my side so the bass will have to remain the same this time. Just about to move house and this baby needs to go and get pressed next week in time for the Festival in August...

Cheers, Slap...

Sounds incredible. A great listening experience. Vocals, saxophone and horn section ... sounds great ... also one of my favorites.

Spivkurl 6th Jun 2011 02:34 - 15 years ago

Now this is my kind of funk! That wah guitar is super cool! Great bass playing! Those horns are smooth! I can't fault the mix in any way, it sounds perfect! Best of luck on the CD release!
