I always dig your mixes, they are very clean and your choice of panning here makes me think deep about such things. Great guitar and wah effects. There is so much to listen to in your tracks but they never seem crowded. Always a pleasure!

Hey Wayne,

Thanks allot for checking it out. I appreciate your comment about my tracks never seeming crowded. I do realize I put allot of stuff in my tracks and sometime think I may be overdoing it, so it's good to hear I'm not.

Cheers,
Scott

Very ice use of panning!! I love the concept and nice loop that was used. Love the piano especially!

ScottB55 replied 11th Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Hi Jklice,

Thanks for your comment. I remember the early days of panning when it was more aggressive than today. I like the sound of different instruments mainly coming out of one speaker rather than both. Not sure if it's right or wrong, but it just sounds better to me.

Cheers,
Scott

I plan to use a short part of this for a video I am making, I love it, and I feel like it'll fit perfectly. I'll be sure to give credit with a link.

ScottB55 replied 14th Apr 2015 - 11 years ago

Sorry for not getting back sooner. Sure, you can use it for your video. Have you done it yet? I'd like to check it out when you finish.

Cheers,

Very cool Scott, love the clarity in the mix of instruments.
I also love that moving bass line and the jangly guitar work. Cru

Hey Cru,

So glad you like it and took time to hit me up with your kind words. It's really appreciated.

Definitely it is hard to put in one exact genre...but this is bloody good...vocs are pop/rock/hip a bit, guitars,bass are surely funk, the drums are new wave plus some strings from the classical side...awesome track Scott...
Always loved the works from the team but this song is very close to me...I think the mood...

Faved, dl, handshake, Danke

ScottB55 replied 8th Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Thank you so much, Danke. So glad you like and took the time to comment. I always love receiving and reading your kind words.

Actually, this track started out as funk, but I found some cool pellas that fit well, and it just started taking on a life of it's own. I actually like it when that happens, because I usually get something out of my comfort zone.

Cheers,
Scott

Love when the trumpet comes in or whatever preset that was. Its a bit catchy, and it reminds me of other funk songs.

ScottB55 replied 8th Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Hey Jklice,

Glad you like it and took time to comment.

Yeah, that's the brass instrument in the Kontakt VST.

Cheers,

Haha, what a fun track! It has it all, a little Seinfeld ,a lot of jazz and even a little Daft Punk sounding vocal work.

What a treat. Excellent work!
RW

ScottB55 replied 5th Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Hey RW,

Glad you like my track and took time to comment. Actually, I hadn't noticed the bass sounding like the Seinfeld theme, but you are right! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I'm not too familiar with Daft Punk, though.

Cheers,
Scott

This track came straight out of Funk Town, USA. Nice job. Cool vocal and funky bip bop hop beat.

so refreshing to hear this feel! never heard that talk-box effect at the beginning. that is a new sound for me. very slick arrangement and mix. neat solos by different instruments and of course the skatting is classic. When the piano takes a turn at 2:08 it is a perfect moment. fun track!

ScottB55 replied 4th Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Thanks allot, MS. I appreciate your comment.

The talk-box has been around awhile. Most people knew of the talk-box from Peter Frampton's album. I don't know if it's used much in today's music, since, other than jazz, I don't listen to too much new stuff.

Cheers,
Scott

Scott!

This is simply brilliant!
Talkbox is a new colour on your desk...sometimes I had a big-band feeling...I showed to our drummer Lugo, who wanted to play in a big-band in his entire life but he failed this project :-)
He danced a bit with a sad smile on his face...:-)

Respect, Danke

ScottB55 replied 1st Mar 2015 - 11 years ago

Hi Danke,

And thank you for your kind words. Yes, I don't use the talk-box much, if at all. It was fun to give it a try, though.

I do love the big band sound. I played many years with different big bands in my career and loved every minute of it, so whenever I can fit a brass track in my songs, I do it.

Cheers,
Scott

1:20.... heaven in sound

Great grooves all around but that section (and the part leading up to it) is glorious.

Hey Donfons,

Somehow I missed your comment here...My apologies.

Anyway, many thanks for your kind words. Glad you like it.

Scott, I love that Groove man. Do you have copywrite or any Restrictions to the usage of this track? Not trying to get rich, just trying to use some really Kool stuff for a small project I have. Thanks

ScottB55 replied 21st Feb 2015 - 11 years ago

Hi ARH,

Glad you like it. If you have a non-profit project you may use it. If you have a link where you're using it, I'd like to check it out.

what a wonderful bass line!!!
Loved it!
My personal highlight: the intro (the first bars with bass & drum at fulls steam are a real killer!)
Ciao, Domenico

ScottB55 replied 23rd Feb 2015 - 11 years ago

Hey Domenico,

Really glad you like it and took the time to comment. Being a drummer, I have always loved a bass and drum break-down in a good funk or rock song. Glad you do also.

Cheers,
Scott

Dude this is seriously good - bit of Little Feat here - fantastic production values - good structure - this should be getting a lot more traction. One quibble - possibly the vocals should come in earlier. Great work.

ScottB55 replied 15th Feb 2015 - 11 years ago

Hey, Clindsay,

Thanks allot for chiming in and leaving your kind words. Hadn't noticed, but it does have bit of a Little Feat vibe to it.

Hi Scott.
Lovely little piece, very classic and stylish arrangement, some instruments (horns) sound a bit too 'midi' though. Interesting combination with the vocals.
Overall this is really very good stuff to learn from when comes to create a proper instrumentation or simply to play along.

Nice one. I will check it out again if you add the guitars.
Best to you, Alex

ScottB55 replied 15th Feb 2015 - 11 years ago

Hey Alex,

Thanks for your ear and comments. I recently got some EastWest Quantam Leap software with some brass VST, so hopefully my brass wont sound as 'midi' as with this track. I also got Kontakt with some nice VSTs, also, so will be checking it out in the future.

Cheers,
Scott

Love the fill at2:09, this is oozing with funk and delicious sounds. 2:40 has an awesome late seventies approach to funk. Reminds me of the Boston Band Heavy metal Horns just a bit in this part. Awesome work Scott!
Thanks for sharing this.

Sorry Scott. I hit play and the song won't play for me for some reason, must be something wrong with the player. I will try again tomorrow.

Wow, seems to be playing for everyone else. Hope you will give it another try. Would love to get your comment.

I know pretty much bugger all about folk music but this is a nice arrangement of different instruments with lots of great parts and plenty to keep the ears interested. I like the way it progresses and switches to the electric guitar. It's all really well played and sounds nice and crisp. The violins were a nice touch as was the "three four".
Very well done indeed.
FR

ScottB55 replied 18th Jan 2015 - 11 years ago

Thanks allot, FR. So glad you checked it out and left you complimentary words. This one's a bit different from what I usually do, but always like to try different things.

I hardly listen to country music... (Only John Denver so to speak). But this was a lovely track, with a nice arrangement. Liked the violin part a lot.

Look forward to hear more sounds from you & will definitely start listening to more country music.

EB

ScottB55 replied 16th Jan 2015 - 11 years ago

Thanks allot, EtherBlu. Actually, I'm not much into country, either, but I like some Mountain and Bluegrass styles. You wont hear much like this from me, but thought I'd give it a try.

Cheers,
Scott

Sounds good to me. I like some country. Well done.

ScottB55 replied 3rd Jan 2015 - 11 years ago

Thanks allot, James. Yeah, a little country is fine. Was never a huge fan, but I'm mellowing in my old age. I actually made a pretty good living at it back in the day.

Cheers,
Scott
