Roti Roll - DanWilson

3rd Jun 2009 22:00 - 17 years ago
Description : A collaboration with sax man Luke Townsend from Cape Town. Its a track from an album we completed last year called 'The Trip', featuring some beats & samples from local electronic dude Captain Asthma. Has an Eastern Feel with a very warbly bass sound. Was put together using Acid Pro and finished off using CuBase. The bass and horns were live (some looping), the rest is loops. The album was self-released - we did a limited pressing of 200 copies. Available in SA!

When the sax came in I was blown away. That along with the Eastern feel and that trippy drum beats all seemed to work together nicely. Just an awesome musical journey!! Hope to hear some more new tunes soon! Fav and dl!

Great energetic track. I like the way the multiple bass lines create harmonies. The sax ensemble is nice and jazzy as well.

To me this has an Eastern feel, but one that's been filtered through East Africa on its way south. Though it's got a very Western, electronic sensibility to the rhythm, there's definitely other influences coming from the foundation. Especially the marimba or xylophone that slides in and out of it. Personally, I think it makes this even better as a track. I really like how the sax and wicked bass turn it into its own unique piece - very original without being 'weird.' Nice one, I have to check out more of your work.

Really liked the world feel of this track...great samples. The sax was awesome in the bridge. Looking forward to more.

Thanks. We'll be posting other tracks from the album (is something that doesn't get released an 'album' ?) on the site. I sent your comments through to Luke in Cape Town - its a cool place by the way.

Peace

Absolutely brilliant. The bassline is great and I really like the mellow sax with the energetic beat, it just works.

Thanks brother. I have to confess that it took a shedload of time to put together, and a trip to a recording studio, which costs bucks of course. Its sometimes worth it though, just to hear a tune of yours in a different location.

Thanks for your positive comments. The tracks we did for the album took forever to finish, but we were happy with the end result.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.

This started as a bandlab beat called Gridlock. Just mentioning in case someone wants to go get a clean version of the main backing track.
