Thank you for the kind comment...
What is funny is that acapella comes from a RnBish song... lol...
I like reggae a lot but I don't know the genre very well... I'm still learning...
I'd just kill to build a true knowledge in that style, but you know, here in France, apart from Bob Marley and Peter Tosh... There's no real reggae culture...

If you have some good reggae tracks to help me discover, don't hesitate to tell me, I'd be very grateful...

Peace.

Ahh! Reggae! Love it!

I'm becoming a fan of your work!

Love the track but since I'm an engineer I'm gonna add a couple of things that might help you out.

Widen the drums! There is a tad to much room in them and they sound very mono. There is also a tad to much midrange and that gives it a nasal quality (to much 1.5kHz maybe).

Love the vocals! Very good performance! The production is really good! You should if you don't already have a job in a studio. You've got great skills!

Thanks mahloo for these precious tips ! I'm gonna try it as soon as I get back home !

I had a very very very... VERY difficult session with this one... Drums and horns especially were HELL to record... I think in the beginning I wanted to hear very crisp drums, with a very aggressive hi-hat and cyms... BUT... This is what you get when you mess with the mics :D

More seriously, I couldn't find a solution neither for horns nor the drums, so I'd left'em like this...

Again thank you for your tips, I really appreciate man...

Peace.
Chris

( by the way, no, I'm not workin' in a studio, not even in music unfortunately )

I'm a HUGE reggae fan and I think this really captures that REAL reggae vibe. Nicely done. Love it.

Thank u so much !!! Actually this is the second time I write reggae... But it came naturally to my mind that this pella ( which is originally soul/RnB ) should be surrounded with some kind of "reggae vibe".... I'm so flattered by such a comment in this way, especially from a fan of the style...

Peace.

A great music. It is refreshing and wonderful. The great voice, but the music is superb, with great rhythms and interesting blends. Is full color. Great, from beginning to end.

When the muzic came on my head started moving from side to side, and it didn't stop til the muzic stopped.

Love this, and the message, mwahhhhhhhh, you got it! And finally, more male vocals. Great job guys!

Sad sad face on the download though, thumbs down :-)

Thanks so much for your kind comment :) I'm honored you liked it. Carter has an amazing sense of rhythm and I particularly like this kind of voice. Reminds me Aaron Neville a lil' bit...

I edited the track so you can DL it. Didn't think people would ever download it ;)

Peace and thanks again for taking your time to give feedback :)

Peace.

Thank so much for the kind words... They mean a lot to me, because I like very much your work, as a songwriter and as a musician...

I'll have to hire you for a guitar chorus some day if you don't mind :P

Description : Remaster and rework of older track that just didn't feel quite finished. It was lacking guitar work, and a better arrangement. I think it's in a good spot. I never did write lyrics for this, the vocal samples just seemed to fill it out pretty decently.

Description : Underground sample-based hip hop with overdriven low-end, broken-beat swing, sparse funky piano chops and heavy turntablism. Beat gaps and sudden mutes create hard-hitting drops, with a raw, dusty, low-frequency sound.

Description : Sorry to bombard with the same track. Here's the final version of the track I made using an Acapella from Looperman by JakeBuzzard. Now remasterd and with sub added plus scratches and more independent equalisation on drums / doubling up on a few instruments. I've also increased the volume on the samples used and the main vocals - as mentioned before, I'm deaf in 1 ear so struggle to get a good stereo mix, honest feedback is welcomed please

Anyway, this is something I did on my off time while fixing my car. Time to do a break job before winter!
