Nice jazzy intro to get us started with some nice keyboard soloing. This is sounding really good. I do love a good old rhodes sound. The beat pattern is pretty funked up now i'm getting the acoustic guitar coming through and the first thing that strikes me is how clean the mix is sounding. There's sounds coming from all over the place yet everything is crystal clear. This is one hell of a track mate. Definitely a fav and a download.
I really like this, has a solid melody that could be broken down and built
into a real nice song, for someone with skills vocally...
It sounds real... Not forced into place by a program, your talent is top shelf...
Great funky with superb acoustic guitar and piano work...for me it's a bit long but it's surely my own taste...
Mix is stunning, strange that you didn't request anybody to sing a bit in collab...:-)
Anyway, 'huge1 track...
thanks Danke! :)
nice to hear it's your taste, funky stuff is definitely also something i can always listen to hehe.
do you know four80east? if not i recommend you check out their tunes, you might like it. they give me the goosebumps in a lot of tracks, and rarely i hear a track i don't like.
i'd even go as far as saying it's the most underrated smooth jazz/lounge/funky chillout band i currently am a fan of.
i thought about singing myself at first but didn't come up with enough silly lyrics yet. but actually i wouldn't mind at all if someone else wants to have a go at it!
Kinda FUNKY!?!?!
This is so funky i can Smell it!!
The Acoustic guitar.... I noticed some one else brought it up too....there are parts(3:00 - 3:30) where it fits very nicely adding texture to the background but there are other times when it feels like it doesn't fit. Its this jangly sound where it needs to be more percusive. I don't know really...what I'm talkin about is kinda sonicaly cliche and you may well be goin for something different.
Either way it's not putting me off the track
It's and easy Fave
Very Cool Tune
Peace
BT
hey BT, thanks for dropping your thoughts and impressions here.
first of all i am happy you like it that much.
you know what, you make a good point with that a more precussive guitar sound might loosen up the mix a little where it's too crowded. an acoustic guitar is so rich of harmonics and i already filtered the hell out of it but what i didn't do is shape it with an amp envelope. never thought about it before and i will give that a try for sure, cheers man!
Congratulations on allegedly entering the Static Nomad funky jam vibe zone. It's a fun place to hang out and I try to go as often as I can.
One reason it's not quite my zone is that lead keyboard part that's a bit light and slightly cheesy for me. The notes are fine, I just would have chosen a darker, more powerful sort of sound.
This has quite a summery, chillhop sort of vibe. Reminds me a little of another track or two of yours.
0:50 it takes off with the extra percussion. Good layering of drum sounds. Strummy guitar is pretty cool. After 1:36 I think we get a more powerful snare. The new kick drum is a bit too loud but not that big a deal.
You do a good job of having the whole track dominated by that same lead funky organ sort of part. The playing doesn't really get boring. However, I would definitely switch the playing to another instrument (or three), just for variety.
3:33 track could do with a bit more space in it but that lead part keeps going. It's a fun, joyful celebration of funkiness but I'd like different sections to be given a more distinctive character.
P.S. This has a weird title. Any chance of finding out what it means?
thanks for the specific suggestions. i like the idea of switching instruments and also changing the overall character the different parts bring forth. good ideas, cheers man.
the track title is sort of an inside joke in my own head and hard to explain and probably not very funny to any non-nerds, but i'll try.
i imagined that after tech singularity the artificial intelligence will enslave us matrix-style and the last remnant of humanity will be the useless piece of code while(!asleep)++sheep;. sleep, which for biological things is essential to survive, is a complete waste of energy for machines. i like the paradoxicalness of this. it also plays on the fact that AI is still made by humans and hence contains flaws and that is how this piece of code made it into the kernel of the machines.
so the actual title of this is while(!asleep)++sheep; but i had to spell it out for there are no special characters allowed in the title.
thanks again for the comment and thoughts.
I really enjoyed this. It kind of has a jazz/relaxing kind of feeling to it. The drums and bass are my favorite elements of this track, and love the synths you used. I wouldn't change anything to make it better, as its great as is. Thanks for the little download and fav! :)
Psychedelic vibes on this one. All the instruments moves together silk smooth. Blissful guitar as well, everything fits together really well. Nice. peace
Please master this one. it is worthy. You have entered Static Nomad zone in terms of funky jam vibes. most appreciated the bass line on this one. Acoustic guitar is very nice as a background element. all-together a well thought out and recorded song. I look forward to hearing the finished product. The chord changes are amazingly progressive. Steve
hey Steve
thanks for your kind compliments.
glad you appreciated the bass movements! :)
i'll finish it for sure at some point and then i will send you the tune if you want. cheers man!
IT's got a nasty drop to the groove, big bass drum on the 1 if you get my drift
drop that in and everything will stand on that, with a solid foundation...
Cool intro that last 17 well almost 18 bars would be a groundbreaking
direction it has stability groove wise with a simplistic feel-Very Real....
Slap a guitar on that to complement the melody, and you'd have a winner..
I see you have here different melodies in different genres.
I hope I'll listen to them soon cause you seem to be such a protean composer. My admiration. Rap is something I'm not an expert, but again, I'm no expert in general :)) but, this sounds as I recall rap should sound, and this orchestration has a come here feeling.
Hello again. I've read your profile description before listening to your music. The "About me" section it's very amusing while it has this feeling of gravity.
About this melody, I sure did enjoy listening to it.
I liked the rhythm in it.
hello and sorry for the late reply, i just saw that right now. i'm thankful that you share your experience here and of course it is even better to learn that you enjoyed the music as well as my 100% serious and authentic "about me" section. ;)
Hip hop isn't a genre i'm particularly good with so i'm probably not the best to comment on this.
However, i like what i'm hearing. The music is great, especially the piano. The vocal could do with being a tad louder in places as it's obscured a little by the bass.
That said, this is a good track and i like the way you used both male and female vocalists. It changes the flavour of the track.
It's an imaginitive track and i enjoyed listening to it.

nice to have U back after a while my busy friend .
Savino as U know I'm not a fan of hiphop buT this was a considered instrumentation , plus a beautifull orchestration -by far most serious arrangemenT I've listened for a hiphop track = what a hard & serious pianO line U've patientlY written !- & catchy execution of vocals which totally had make a pleasurable package,what convinces me to mark a hiphop track as fav.many thnx for sharing .Savino i hope all is well beyond that monitor for U ..take care .___B
I see there's an extended version of this that I will also comment on.
Some very classy mega chill here.
Definitely makes me think of outdoors. Rivers and rainforests. What a cool, unusual beat. What's the time signature? Good mix of that well chosen snare with the rim shot. That helps give the groove character.
Kind of jazzy with a late night, lazy, low key vibe to it.
Sounds like great soundtrack work. Short but effective.
Hi!Thanks alot for the comment on my song!I listened to a couple of your songs.You make really nice music yourself.Really good quality.I especially liked the songs with patricia edwards in it.Sounds like a good match to me.You make a good duo.Nice!As for reasonstation.I dont remember :)
hey man, thanks for stopping by!
yeah it's been a while, i remembered your nickname "XS09" from back then and in my head it's associated with some impressive oldschool hip hop instrumentals. cheers :)
