you're kidding me you liked my stuff, man this is the real thing I try to copy, the funk the real funk with soul, that you like mys tuff is sureal because you are funk, not just the smell, welcome to my fav bin. I'm a fan. The Funk with this guy he'll funk you up good
Thanks for the listen and review!! I'm glad you enjoyed! I got the Funk and you got the Funk!! As someone stated earlier to me "If you Ain't got it in you - It Ain't gonna come out" You got !! I know I listened!!
Don't matter if it's loops, memorex or live there Fila. Music is music. You got to have it in ya or it won't come out no matter how you created it. This one made me want some bbq chicken, sitting on the back porch with my buddies having a tall boy.
A computer is just as much a musical instrument as a Stratocaster. Everyone can buy one but that don't mean you can make music like Eric Clapton.
Now this has got it !! You may remember the old title given to artist who write/compose/produce their own material = "singer/songwriter" . You have a catchy tune with this one. I also have to confess to owning a Casio keyboard but mine's got the small keys.. I think you could have a song that goes beyond the stratosphere if you re-mix with some good loops from looperman and add real instruments on it. I'd be willing to collab on that one if that sounds like a good idea. Great Track.
Hey Bud thanks for the review and listen!! Yup those were the days!! Beleive it or not the ole Casio was one of them little keyboards!! LOL But had this one great sound that I used for this song!! I had a updated version done in a studio but the tape is fried. might try and revive will let you know and thanks again!! Fila (a couple more in the can hope to get one out tomorrow) Fila
I like the keys just the way they are. This is what a lot of dancey pop music sounded like when I was in high school. I'd say add a busier (16ths) and higher key part on top, somewhere along the line, and you'd have a great pastiche of the kind of records they played at my prom. :)
Hey man thanks for both the reviews and commments!! Got real busy at school so just getting back!! You are right needs to get busier but this was all left of the orginal!! So I am back to strickly looping!! Got a couple in the can so look out and thanks again!!! Fila
Thanks Daniel-- I really thank you for
your comments and glad you enjoyed! I know I have crossed different Genres' But the Porch II is almost done!! Take care!!! Fila
Awesome track! Lovely groove and riffs. This song made me smile, which is great! So many serious tracks on this site , but this has humour and style which is a fantastic combination. Your production is really balanced and clear (You have good ears man).
Oh yes indeed! What a track! Really cool playing (some wonderful voicings and riffs), I love the sound your using on the keys. Great drum patterns (I'm still to find/buy some cool bebop/swing beats), just love the ride and rim shot phrases. I say 10/10 for this one baby!!!
THanks for the reviews and comments of my tracks glad you enjoyed. Good luck in your quest to produce 10 tracks in Feb I will be looking out for a post on the results and will also be listening to more of your tracks (I luv the Sax but they made my take up Violin in the 3rd Grade LOL))
Nothin' like the good old stuff.....I can smell the chicken just listenin' to the great riffs! I'll bring over my congas and we'll jam all night long. Got to have beverages though in case we get thirsty. Bombastic loop! Already have it on my Ipod!
I like it...good continuity with a progressive ambience...simple fact is men have a lot to answer for and women have been shouldering that burden since the year dot.....all in favour of a reversal of power...raise their hands..lol...damn we'd be a mess of henpecked dudes then..hehe..great track,artistic and cool!..cheers planet :)
Hey MrFila..nice to meet you....just when I thought this place was being overrun with young electronic hip hop dudes(not that there's anything wrong with that)....somebody walks through the front door and restores my faith in good musical appreciation!..lol...Love this groove,it's got all the snappy rhodes sounds and panache' of Miles Davis's 'Bitches Brew'...way cool and a pleasure to the ears..great work...cheers planet :)
Thanks for the review and comments on my tracks - I still have a couple of Mile's orginal (vynils) When I was in my youth a long time ago lol He was tough to listen to but that was my POPs main man-- Again thanks for listening - will keep on trying to keep it real. PS I got two hip hopers here!!! LOL
Nice...
Diggin this track big time.
It has swing and attitude.
Build some similar sketches and Seek out Slapjohnson for a collaboration. He is like the best sax player in the world and he is right here on looperman.
Smokin stuff.

Thanks for the review!! Apollo what a great place- had the opportunity to get there quite a few times back in the day! Did not know who (Slap) was but listened to a couple of his tunes today!! Man he can kick!!(Memphis Horns) It is amazing all this talent on looperman!! Fila
Man this deep.
There is a beautiful vibe going here.
I applaud you for putting this together, especially the cassette document elements. Technology may march on, but there are still gems captured on tape that need to be shared.
I can not tell you how humbled I am to receive a mention of being an inspiration. As you mentor youth, I hope to share an often overlooked point of interest. The famous Martin Luther King "I Have A Dream" speech was first delivered in Detroit at Cobo Hall. The speech was verbatim with the historic Washington DC March for Freedom speech.
WJR radio Detroit has the Cobo Hall speech in their archives.
I mention this because I have recently viewed a documentary about MLK where the narrator states he had disregarded his prepared notes in DC and ad-libed the Dream speech on the spot.
The Cobo speech has a special quality to it. As Cobo is a much more intimate venue than the vast Washington Mall. Worth seeking out. Either way, I am brought to tears with even the suggestion of Martins Dream.

The mojo is definitely working here. You were able to capture the rustic tone and grit of the slide parts quite well, without loops stepping all over the natural sound. Combining the two is a difficult line for many to walk, and you seem to be comfortable therein. The variations on the twelve-bar lay were a welcome change-up too, since the simplicity of the recording needs development the further on you get. An admirable effort -- keep it up!
makes me want to grab my harmonica and start jammin along side ya on the porch. Great job especially with just loops. Keep the foot tappin porch music comin!

Enjoying your jazz tune. Nice use of loops selection. I don't listen to hardly any jazz, but I enjoyed this song very much.
I like the piano sound a lot.
Thanks for sharing it.
