OK... I'll keep it short:

what "cellardoor" said.

Cool track man!
Ciao, Domenico

PS: I also agree with Danke, the sax sound could be improved and bring the track to a whole another level.
Or you could go for something different (sax is one of the hardest thing to mimic with a synthesizer)

PPS: what a boring man I have become... I just second what others say... too bad :-(

Hey man, thanks for listening and the suggestions. Yeah sax is hard to emulate but I quite liked the one in this even if it is not obviously real! Glad you liked it though :)

Cool retro vibe on this one,,the funky electric guitars I especially like,the brass brings a Motown sound to the plate.Great stuff.

This is a groovin track. Very funky, indeed. Not allot of funk on this site, so have to check em out when I see them. You certainly did not disappoint, my friend.

I do love a track that makes me want to move, or get things done, and this has both of those qualities! I'd say that, for me, all of the guitar parts or the feature of this piece. They give a realism that is important, and the groove they create works very well! The drums are potent and danceable. I'm not a super funk fan, but this has a very nineties edge which does it for me. Fun to hear for sure!

Diskonnect replied 25th Oct 2015 - 8 years ago
Hey, the little acoustic funk chord rhythm was the very first thing we made for this, it basically all revolves around that and everything was added after. The guitar groove sounds pretty cool I thought, with all the little 'tick-a-tick-a's'. Thanks for listening!

Very cool funk here...like every movement in the song, specially those guitars...the groovy is simply brilliant...every instrument are on the top except that loop (on my humble opinion)...that sax from 0.40 and 2.16 is very mechanical...there isn't much similarity with the real sax voice...may I offer DVS Sax software for you? Perhaps you will hear better tune there...

Congrats and handshake, Danke

Diskonnect replied 25th Oct 2015 - 8 years ago
Hey man, thanks for listening! The sax was a loop from this site, only software I have is the stock NI one in kontact but I don't particularly like it :-/ The one you mentioned sounds interesting, where can I get it?

Beautiful work! Truly is funky piece! In some areas with the brass and/or sax sections, I heard parts hat reminded me of the brass parts of Stevie Wonder's "Superstitious." Not sure if intentional or not, but was perfectly executed. All of the instrumentation was clear and balanced too. I recommend checking out a song called "The Recipe for the Perfect Afro" on YouTube. I think you may enjoy it! Cheers and thanks for sharing! Faved!

Thanks for listening, obviously I'm familiar with who stevie wonder is, but not really with his work. Tbh neither of us is really THAT familiar with funk at all, just trying to get into what we think is the groove!

I checked out that track on YT, like it! Def has a similar wibe to this! :)

Hi.

I love the groove and the guitar in this (who's playing that?) and will give you a much fuller review later.

Also gotta say that I really enjoyed cellardoor's accurate and enthusiastic review and I enjoy relatively few track comments on this site (as the standard of commenting is so damn low).

More later but big congrats for now.

Diskonnect replied 24th Oct 2015 - 8 years ago
Hey, thanks for listening! All the acoustic guitar parts were recorded by my friend that I made this with and I did the electric. All the bass, brass (with exception of the sax) and synths were played on keyboard and recorded in as MIDI by me. It was fun to make! :)

Really nice one! Sounds fun and really well balanced too. I think it's screaming for a vocal(s)... Great work!

We did have a browse on this site for some vocals but didn't find any that fit! Thanks for listening!

Oh, wow, this is slammin'. I love the catchy groove, and those gritty little synths in the intro. And the acoustic guitar is awesome. Cool juxtaposition of elements. I love the main melody being interspersed with brass. I love the trading back and forth of riffs between different awesome instruments. There's just so much confident attitude and swagger and joy going on here. My whole body's moving to this beat. I would dance like crazy if this came on while I was at a club or a wedding or something. I love the syncopated ostinato at 2:45; it's so playful. I can see myself pointing at other dancers and being super corny on the dancefloor to this. YAY.

Hey, thanks for listening and commenting! We had a few drunken jam sessions making this and we had a lot of fun, I think it shows! :). Getting the head bopping or the body moving was the idea so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks

Description : Continuing my journey with sampling. This was mostly an accident, and not where I originally thought it would go but I'm happy with the destination. I started with the track Real Reel Switcher by Eunice Russ Frost, which has a slower melancholy swing to it, however I've been playing a bunch of older video games lately, with SSX being in the mix heavily, so this track ended up taking on a bit of that for inspiration as well. Would love your thoughts.

Description : Updated 12/2/2022. This is an interesting redo of a funky and fun composition. I gave it more polish by switching to a different drum kit, swapped the flute solo for a synth, then infused more flavor into the guitars, bass and organ. Then lastly tweaking the final master. Can you tell the difference? Let me know. Enjoy.
