Count The Leaves - Npk417

31st Dec 2008 15:49 - 17 years ago
Description : A song I wrote 6 or 7 years ago, and originally intended to have a slightly different progression and more of a Dylan-esque sort of feel. After toying with it in the studio, this is what evolved. Other than the basic tabla/percussion track, the instrumentation is live. Recorded and mixed Fall 2004 -- I've considered re-tracking the vocals (never quite been satisfied with them, only did two takes initially), but haven't gotten around to it yet.

If you have time take a listen and give npk417 some feedback.

This has got a live feel to it for me. I like the way you bring the tablas/percussion into the mix, and the vocal adds the spark to the whole song. great !!

very very good playing ... most of all the drummer!!!
I really love that track, has something of Dave Matthews Band if you ask me, with different instrumentation of course, but with similar special vibes ...
excellent songwriting, very inspiring ...

Description : EASE. Propella Head.

Dark atmosphere meets melodic lift in this upbeat roller from EASE. Deep bass and a driving groove keep the momentum moving, while the melody brings an emotional pull. Propella Head draws you into the shadows and keeps your feet moving.

Description : Heavy, but you can still dance to it. The kind of industrial from the Chicago Wax Trax era, bands like TKK. At least that's what I was aiming for.

Description : We used to ride all night thru downtown Chicago blasting Return to foever in Marks 72 Vega with 12" Ventura BIC speakers in the back that were chrystal clear. i was still too young to drive. Those were some of the greatest times I ever had I'll never forget that band the bandmates or those times. Mark out did himself on this Re-mix/Master. He also updated the Drums, makes the track feel brand new, even tho it's 4 years old.

PEACE...

Description : Sorry guys, you can't listen to what I've planned for this track. The gods have spoken and their words are scripture.

Instead, here is the instrumental to the work. I'll put the uncensored version somewhere else.
