SLAPJOHNSON

This music has a fiery force. I've seen that is not yet finished. There are several moments in which I think would look good choirs (as in Pennsylvania 65000 or a voice like One Step Beyond). It's a touch that I have sent my brain, but I think also the theme song it deserves.

Excellent sax playing on this track. I'm not at all into jazz but I kept seeing you everywhere on the site, so I figured I check out a song of yours. You are very talented. Great work on this. Really love the song, it's so soothing.

Awestruck! Cool Kinda like Rare Earth meets War meets The Wizard! Wow!

This Is Funky Making My Head Wobble When The Guitar Comes in... i like it

Mix is great Slap, the panning of the instruments really opens it all up, kudos for that. It's something that I'm working on to make my tracks sound better as well. The musicianship is top notch, we all have come to expect that from you guys so that is no surprise. I wish you the best of luck on the album, this is a good indication it will be a hit!

Hi, Slap.each time I see your name I know that is going to good and after listening and do not want to stop. Thank you Lord to give us such a talented Johnson. God bless you

Hey Slap!

I love this track great saxwork! Commends,.... I miss a strong powerful bassguitar it misses the right feel, hope I dont offend you by saying that, but the bass is really important in this kind of music. Also I would love to hear a wah guitar, I can record one for you of you like, that will sure make it funkier.

This is some smooth jazz! Those vocals and the horns compliment eachother so nicely! The guitar really adds a lot to this track! Great mix! Classic stuff!

First piece you posted here?

Love it, SLAP!

Hey Slap, it's been a while.

Anyways, this track is hot. From note one to note last. Love the whole thing, but those solos smoke.

nice ...am digging on that bass guitar brother....I love how pro your sound is...very very kool... I have no critic ... just great enjoyed every last minute of it ...keep 'em coming brother

had to edit it because it read I was digging the "#####" guitar... an that clearly is wrong on so many levels!!

haha ha ha ha ah

WOWOWOWOWOW
The name of this is so appropriate. Your one of the artists where you can close your eyes and just drift into relaxation. A sort of hypnotized trance where all the troubles you have just slowly fade! It makes me feel weightless!

Before I didn't think that much too jazz/sax music but now I am wanting to produce my own. To change someones views through music is very hard to do and you do it almost effortlessly!

Thankyou for sharing your hard work with the world. A real pleasure to listen to :)!

I can't stop playing this here..

all I can say is wow.

Don't know what you will come up with next.

Wow, different kind of quality over in these parts of the loop, loved the harmonica, really not much I can say except class!!
nice one.

Wow, a beautiful connection between many instruments. Like the modern jazz sound. The rhythm is great. Talent runs in the family I see.

Wow, Steve this is exceptional. Looks like you have more than figured out Logic. The mix on this one is really nice. Seems like you have everything sitting right where it is supposed to be.

My compliments to Alexander, he just keeps getting better and better (and I didn't think that was possible). Loved your harp work by the way, outstanding!

This track is a 10, but all your work is flawless. The title to this one is great :)

Hope you and the family are well. Thanks for posting this one. Straight to favorites.

Hey Slap!
Yes my friend you have layered in everything nicely.
I always blame my background and ears for hearing rock flavors in a track and this appeals to that and the genres you mentioned.
I have to give special credit to Alexander,I did love the video you posted of him and Jean Toussaint,great stuff for your son and anyone to be a part of and he proved himself A fine performer.

You have a great sense of the importance of a great stereo mix,I think it's been overlooked at times but it makes so,so much of a difference when you get those layers spread out and blended in the way you have here...I think it can make or break a production and you made it happen,though I'm not surprised,you are a true pro and I know you have a firm grasp on how the song should sound!

Well done Steve,
I hope to work with you again in this new year.My reviews say that sax and guitar work pretty good together :)

Allen

Great track.
Faved.

My goodness, Slap, it angers me so that someone with such talent like yours is struggling with a 0. I totally understand about the struggle myself, believe me! You can download Izotope for free I think for two weeks.

Hang in there, brother! And keep on keepin at it. ;)

Nothing to say, just listen, and meditate on excellence here ....

Listening to your songs after a long time! And here is another masterpiece by you. Great sax as usual...very lively. I really loved the energy of this track. Only thing I want to say is that it can be bit more longer and outro can be little bit more satisfying...but its just my opinion...overall great job done by both of you.

Hey Men....Whoa! totally riffed out,this is crazy cool....hell the bass line is wicked!...tres chic,it's about time some television network picked up one of your tunes for a cop serial or something..then you'd start getting the proper kudos your music deserves,and you'd be getting paid by the second as well! lol...ok as far as the sound,I know this is a rough mix..love the bass levels,not keen on the very high cymbal frequency,prefer the sheen taken off that a tad,and like one reviewer has already pointed out..adding something like a huge bass drum hit on the drum accents might add a bit more oomph...but these are purely arbitrary observations,I'm sure that when the song list for this album nears completion you'll have hit on the mastering template your looking for and the continuity will be seamless.....you guys do and always will....Rock! cheers Dave =7)

What a tremendous sax solo, Slap. Love it! Also, what are those... trumpets? Nice.

One thing I've been tying on logic is to "mini-master" my main elements of a song. Ie, vox, guitar melody, maybe in your case the sax. I do that using either the Apple plug-ins or the the Ozone Izotpe plug-ins, which have great pre-sets for the price which is less than 300 for a big bundle.

Hope that helps and hope you're doin' well.

Finally some real instruments!! I gotta say I love this....seems more rock/jazzish than funk...but I guess thats kinda what funk is. I love the name and the fact that your son follows you...haha...in hot pursuit! I liked what I heard, Slap... but I'm going to have to listen again when I get home through some Headphones to really give ya a good critique. But I gotta say I don't think I'll have anything for you other than get into the lead sax a little sooner. But I have a short attention span and I think the "Sax line" sets up the melody and the jam part perfectly! Maybe a shared lead...still chasing you but in a call back thing like he's right on your heels... (cause ya know he really is right there with ya Slap!)... but together.

some nice work... reminded me abit of some of junior walkers stuff ya know?

with a more modern twist to it kinda junior meets 80's duran duran with a little bit of funk from curtis in there as well...

it's very hard for me as an electronic artist to critic something like this because I'm always looking for something electronic I suppose!!..

I enjoyed the listen but for me you do need some kinda extra element in there as well as the blistering sax solos...maybe some bass runs like bootsy colins did in superbad or even a short drum solo just to elevate it upwards kinda like the thing James browns band did in his 70's heyday...ya know what I mean? anyway I enjoyed the listen thanks for sharing brother... keep 'em coming
