Great intro. I love those spooky strings and the dog bark sound. Quite a sinister piece from one so sweet! Super mix and production, and that beat is bad!!!

This is the biz.. Wow I just love the sound and your playing is awesome... Brilliant phrasing and slide work is Ry Cooder eat your heart out...

Cheers slap...

Randall822 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hi ya Slap,
Thanks a lot for reviewing my Voodoo Swamp song. That one took some work for sure. I appreciate your comments very much.

I admire your work very much as well. Being a music teacher has to be one of the best jobs out there.....seeing people progress from not knowing how to properly hold an instrument, to see them one day in concert.
Your son is already proof of that goal.
Thanks again,
Randy

on hostile take-over by raw_data

Cool track Mr raw! You can't beat swearing on a track like this, it's needed to drive the message home... I can't understand why BARACASA wants to take her clothes off to it (Strange lady lol).

on World Peace(Slap Johnson Mix) by Avail

Hi Xxyoung, when I asked if you wanted to do a collaboration and you sent me this track my creative brain went BOOM!!! I just loved the track from front to back... As I was waiting for the the track to start with the mic on record, I found myself muttering phrases about Jazz/freedom ect, then I thought about Gizzards new avatar "World peace through music", and just ended up wittering on the start and end of the song (don't ask why)... Great track and thanks for letting me squeak over it....

Cheers slap...

Avail replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

It was you who made it perfect.I also loved your vocal addition so simple but effective :)

on Sidechained Zombie? lol by Avail

What an uplifting track!! It has a kind of energy to it, it kind of keeps building inside, lifting your soul... Greaty sound, mix and production work... maybe I could play on one of your tracks. What do you think? Add a melody line? I will send you my email....

Cheers Slap...

on Why I Am So Fat by meestege

I love this song.... It's witty and honest, this is also reflected in the stripped back instruments (what more was needed? nothing! It's perfect). Great lyrics and playing all round...

Cheers Slap...

meestege replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thank you Slap
What started as a joke seems to be our biggest hit on Looperman. This was just done in one evening. With other songs we spent a lot of time on the sound and the mix. Sometimes the best way is to keep it easy.

on Silent Night, presented by Slap and Six by Sixfingermusic

Wow Six, it's September but that makes me feel the Christmas spirit coming on. Great arrangement and playing from the six finger Santa, I'm glad you managed to fuse my parts in (hope it didn't take too long)! It will be interesting to see what happens from here on now this has thrown the cat among the pigeons.... All the best to you Buddy...

on My Funny Valentine *Featuring SlapJohnson* by PedroCasillas

Hey pedro, It's great to play on standards, but to have a standard played with such skill as you have shown on this is a dream! I play standards all the time, and they give the humble jazz musician the material to work,develop,create and put food on the table..

A lecturer I know told me this story. At the graduation of his year, he pulled his class of musicians into an empty classroom to wish them good luck now they had finished their studies with him. He asked them to raise their hands if they would session for Sting, all hands went up. He then asked who would work on a cruise liner in a band, all hands went up. He then asked who would play the northeast club circuit, only a few put their hands up. He then asked who would play at the local Italian pasta/pizza place, one hand was raised. He trned to that one person and said "You will be a professional musician and will always work". He turned to the rest and said " I feel you should all find other work outside of music"..

I think a bright future is just around the corner for you my friend..

Cheers Slap...

PedroCasillas replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

wow thanks alot mate :) - i hope to do something with my 'BMus(hons) Jazz' which will enable me to put food on the table. when I get back from my lengthy hiatus i'm gonna hunt you down and force you to mentor me haha ;)

but its such a privilege to play with such an accomplished musician, who'd have thought this virtual musical connection could have came from me merely trying to find some loops haha, we are the north east virtual jazz scene haha.

btw who's this lecturer? I had a lecturer who liked to bang on about sting a bit haha

thanks alot Slap

on Pulchritudinous *Featuring SlapJohnson* by PedroCasillas

i just had to play on one of your tracks (you are the jazzman).
You are one hell of a pianist and musician my new found friend, and I enjoyed playing and hearing every note of this work... Thank you for allowing this to happen, my life is fuller with your music in it...

Cheers Slap...

PedroCasillas replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

maaan, you really made the track, thank you so much, i'm not really a pianist by any means, i did guitar for me degree but i just prefer the sound of piano, but dude i'm gonna try make some more originals for you, but if theres any standards you really like, or if you'd like me to pick i'll make some backing for you, i've got all the real books n fake books on me computer so nowts a bother.

+ does the song go tenor - soprano - flute - tenor?
i absolutely adore the flute solo!

thanks again
