Description : Final mix before cd pressing. Mixed through a pair of Yamaha HS50M studio monitors and mastered in Logic.
This is the forth finished song taken from our forth coming album "Festival". This song was inspired by the fantastic zoo at Edinburgh which we have visited twice over the past few years. All of the wonderful and diverse animals that are housed in this massive world class facility which is a great and informative day out. We spent 2 hours just watching the chimps play in the ape enclosure!
I'm really enjoying improving my bass and guitar chops recording this project, also I'm totally digging all the stuff you can do with Logic since I converted to Mac last Summer.
Alexander is blowing the main sax solo on this with me providing the flute solo in the change section. This song has got a huge horn section including 2 alto, 2 tenor, 1 baritone & a flute thrown in to add that icing on the top. The wah guitar is played through the fantastic flextone 3 line 6 amp. I bought this monster about 6 years back and it is just the dogs bollox
I hope you dig this more laid back groove..
Cheers, Slap...

Description : This track was written three years ago, but I've learned a little since then and thought I'd rework it again. So I took this old dog to the dog parlor... a little grooming, some nail care, well, and a few treats... Now he's barking again.

Description : It's the first mission I have to go on alone. My deserving, long-time companion, co-commander, navigator, on-board psychologist and brilliant astronaut Robbie was lost during our last one. I had received signals from the ice planet L115 indicating that he may have crashed there with his exploration ship. Follow my search for him there as I go from valley to valley, ice mountain to ice mountain, and have to leave the planet again without success. Looks like this could be a very long search...

Description : I've redone this it's funky
Description : "If you got faults, defects or shortcomings you know like arthritis, rheumatism or migraines - whatever part of your body it is, I want you to lay it on your radio - let the vibes flow through, funk not only moves, it can remove, dig?"
Description : This is another Jazz/Funk composition. My brother on the Loop, BaoBou was kind enough to grace this track with his fire on guitar. Also, as a result of his contribution, I got inspired and added even more funk into the mix. Enjoy.

Description : This track starts off with some Jazzy Neo-Soul then gets into some Funk with a Rock Space-Synth solo, then ends with some straight Neo-Soul.
So I won't offend anyone that's hardcore into Funk, I'd say this track is "Funkish"
PEACE...

Faved!
I really like the saxophone's sound a lot. This is a real jam track. It sounds like from Superfly's time zone. Incidentally you make awesome loops and I have used a few. Thanks for sharig your talent with those of us not fortunate to have any. Vic
Perfect. I can not vote on it as fav twice, although you have done even better.
Salud
Yeah, your changes are a major improvement! This album is going to sound awesome! Nice work!
Hey Slap...I was at the Melbourne Zoo (which is also a fantastic facility) with my sister and her kids,anyway we're in front of the monkey enclosure (one of them) and my young nephew asks "what are they doing"..I promptly reply 'Shagging'..he turns to me and in all seriousness asks "what's shagging?"..I turn to my sister and say "lets go look at the Elephants,that's a safer bet" lol
Man your really hitting your straps now,this sounds great!.such a rich sonic experience and the fx's are way cool..superb playing..that's really a byword in any of your material.
cheers Dave :)
Wonderful piece. I find it hard to find something that can be improved when I like, but I'll try. The only thing I find something out is low. There are times when it seems that the bass walk backwards, while the rest of the music tries to move forward.
Love the Vibe to this Slap. Had my head nodding the whole time. Automatic Fav.

Quite an inspiring track! I really like that bass line, though maybe it could use a little more low end. All those horns are awesome, and are really well played! The flute solo rules! Explosive dynamics on the mix! Really fine work my friend!
One of the most amazing gigs I ever did was the Main Gate at the Phoenix, Arizona zoo with a West African Drum and Dance troupe called africatamtam. We did a 90 minute set, and by the end there were over 30 toddlers shaking nappy covered bums to it.
I have to agree with Toby's review. There's a "Bungle in the Jungle" homage here that's totally in the Spirit of, but not approach. It's not the flute, either. Very cool.
Groovy groove.
Sorry, I forgot to mention just how much I loved it, But I know you're a perfectionist and prefer feed-back to Blowing smoke.
Faved so I can find it again and again..

I couldn't get through the whole thing, and by that I mean every ten seconds or so, I'd back up because there was something I just had to hear again.. On the third pass I was able to just take it all in. There were a few instances where the bass line seemed to be slightly off cue. to be specific at @:58 to 1:08 the bass seems a few milliseconds early to the Percussion's groove, and it falls back in groove seamlessly at 1:08. same at 3:01, and at 3:37 back in perfect swing. Also at that point there seems to be a homage to Jethro Tull without borrowing a single note or phrase, and that is something That I've only heard Charlie Parker do.
Humbly Yours,
Toby (the Goose)
