    That remind me fallout 3 or fallout new vegas radio songs.

    Great job at mastering this track and the acapellas.

    I maybe should make a another cinematic remix about that one if you are agree, Vince or Karsten

    There are no vibes in this song. I don#t even own a vibraphone!

    I could see that happening. What would be the video game mechanic for this dog adventure, RPG,FPS, Platformer? :)
    I'm thinking Platformer.

    You get some decent sounding woodwind results. Mine usually sound like ass, though I believe they're sampled using strictly mouths.

    Has a bit of the Star Wars Cantina feel. Good for a fight scene. First horns (trumpet section?) sounds a bit hokey, but the rest are pretty nice.

    Question, if you can't trust an intern, why let him feed the shark? Seems like a job for someone you trust. Gordon may leave the gate open and then the shark would be loose in the neighborhood, knocking on doors, pretending to be a Candy-Gram. Damn land sharks.

    Well, "I sent Gordon to feed the shark" means "I sent Gordon as food to the shark" ...

    Good work on keeping this piece so well rounded. Liked the mix of jazz and funk. Really tasteful instrument choices too!

    Good work!

    Agreed with comment below, such tasteful orchestration on strictly clean sounding yet very uptempo happy ultrafunk. Thanks for sharing this with us Gordon. Alex

    I sent Gordon to feed the shark. The track is also 100% free of distracting groove particles.

    That is a fun track man, I can totally envision this in an indie video game or the like. Nice orchestration.

    Commented on What Bo Said by ZankFrappa

    So What Zakk Frappe, sorry Zacharius Frappius.Stank Frackka. no still can't write it correctly...anyhoo what he(she) is trying to tell us is that the tune he(She) made is an homage to Bo Diddley who invented this style of progression called "The Bo Diddley beat" a 3-2 Clave rhythm used in Afro-Cuban music. I want Candy is one of the many tunes that uses this.
    check this out.

    It's a song about stealing, posing, ignoring and getting rich in the end. Don't forget to mention your "roots" when they are drowning in cheap alcohol, so they may get some bread crumbs from your table.

    A business model perfected by Led Zeppelin.

    Most entertaining two minutes of my day (something my wife says on occasion). This was really well done. And representative of many hits from the past. Like TG said, it took some talent to assemble this one. Respect.

    I can vaguely remember this song, who was that guy again...
    oooooh yeah the the Mr. Diddle

    Very nicely done, what I really like is that you didn't do it, like him
    you made the tune today not yesterday...
    Took some talent to pull that off as good as you have, no question
    an oldy but goody reborn in a good way...

    You are a strange person indeed. However, I like your grumpy ways. It's a bit like your music, Unusual. So sack all interns and whip us hard.

    Everything you say is kinda rude, but all your tracks are pretty interesting, so overall it's just kinda "meh".

    The clap and the ride really carried you on this one. The rest sounds like "I Want Candy". Harness that clap and ride cymbal and it'll take you to the top.

    Note to Gordon: Urinate in Bossman's coffee till he starts being more personable. He seems like he might be an intelligent and interesting dude if he wasn't so dismissive of genuine praise. And Gordon, quit sniffing the White-Out.

    It's the other way round: "I want Candy" sounds like Bo.

    Never trust an intern.

    Mr Frappa is suffering from migraine at the moment, so I - his intern - will answer to your posts. That might be the reason for friendly messages.

    Mr. Frappa will be back soon, so expect his far more professional ripostes soon.

    Kind regards

    Sorry for my slow reply Zank.

    Traditional blues verses are most common in twelve bar blues with the characteristic repeated first line.
    Blues songs are by no means all sad I think. Many of these traditional lyrics are salacious.
    Other lyrics tell of violence and an unhappy romance.

    Many others detail the miseries of life. Some lyrics crop up in song after song

    Floating lyrics have been described as lines that have circulated so long in folk communities that tradition - steeped singers call them instantly to mind and rearrange them constantly, and often unconsciously, to suit their personal and community aesthetics

    Just to let you know.

    Thanks so much for some constructive replies. It means a lot.
    Still looking forward to hear your song.

    So long Zank.

    12 bars are for mathematicians. The blues is different. The blues comes from picking cotton, not counting bars. It's about making contracts with the devil.

    Lyrics are overrated. "You better come out in my kitchen, it's going to be raining outside" - what's that all about? I got no idea! Lyrics are suspicious, I prefer text2speech software when comes to words!

    However, I hope this is no spoiler, I did not use any lyrics on this track, but rather tried to give it a complete mojo injetion based on arousing guitars.

    One day you will listen to this cute little masterpiece and the whole universe of music will unveil to you. Halleluja, brother!

    If a song is too short, you can listen to it again. If it's too long, you get bored. Shhh, don't tell, it's the secret of hits ...

    You could create a double login and celebrate you, for example pomgeranate2239. You (pomegranate) could point out how outstanding clever your (promenade) track is any you reply in a kind fashion to yourself and so on. Obviously everybody does this here. The bots do the downloads, the double login the comments .
