The Clash comparisons are cool, as when I made this I had no thoughts or ideas that I wanted to sound like them, but for me this is a natural progression of post disco and with Punk and with it's DIY nature it just naturally evolves.(convergent evolution). No organs were harmed in the making of this song, but various guitar effects were used over Yamaha midi instruments. And ironically no tape was used, but recorded onto a Special type of 4 track Sony Minidisk. It was a truly controlled Jam. The song is very structured and the solos were designed to fit in the melody. This was not an improv but had some thought to it.
Always a pleasure

Hey Danke
Awesome that the whole family was dancing, my best to all of them.
Thanks for the props on the bass. That's the second Malmsteen quote on one of my songs in the last 2 weeks and it's freaking me out a bit as I am not that technically good.
If I spread joy with my music then lie is good.

Thanks Poppe, you don't have to be a "disco man" to get into post punk disco, or New Wave because disco should always be underground, the "disco" you know is pure and utter pop crap pushed by record companies. The disco I know is innovative and full of creativity that you have never heard. The Clash took that ethos of Punk and Disco and made some awesome tunes and spurred on the new wave new romantic post punk movement in the UK which bled over into North America Via MTV.

Ironically I have been watching Punk Britannia on you tube the last few days. The clash were awesome, and if you were able to contact Joe, that would be an amazing feat since he passed on about 13 years ago. His voice may have decayed (oh thats so wrong) a bit. I really enjoy writing and playing moving bass lines. This bass line is a different style for me. 3.20 is me slipping into a Alan Spenner style bass line for say a Roxy Music like song. Punk and disco were made for each other in a musical sense because of the simplicity of styles and chord structure it creates a lot of breathing room in the tracks to be creative with solos and moving bass-lines. IT's why the New wave, post punk, post romantic, synthpop movements in the uK became so big and then with the advent of the visual in MTV in the US, transplanted to North America as well.
One of my favourite tunes that embodies the spirit of this sound actually is from your home country by one of it's biggest stars ever. This tune from 1972 is before disco and drips with irony.

I love the simplicity , the ironic anger of the nonsensical usage of English (Anglocentric voices prevelant in many euro-tunes at the time). and the subtle instrumentation throughout.
Always a pleasure

I was emphasising the bass drum and high hat on this one and not necessarily the snare which would give you the more punchy feel that you are recommending. I could envision in the chorus adding a snare or even a sharp hand clap to it. The fun of building a song up from layers.
Thanks for listening and commenting
Cru

Aww thanks man.
u the best
Cru

Ahh you are too kind Bear.
Believe it or not the Keyboard I used
for this was a $199 Yamaha. Even the drums, but I used a most expensive Roland Guitar processor to make some of these sounds magical. Mixed on the fly on a 4 track Sony It was fun to revive this one with modern mastering.
"Another outstanding effort from one of the best musicians on Looperman."
is a very high compliment from a great musican yourself and I am humbly grateful for that.
All the Best
Steve

Hey Mos
I'm sorry to hear you were in ill health, I hope you are doing better. This is disco with a sinister Post Punk Edge. I'm glad you stopped bye.
All the best Mate.
Steve
