New bit with DFHS

Something new I threw together this morning for kicks. I call it "Muscle Car".

Excellent sketch, i'd love to hear this full blown.

good tune, the soaring melody, bass line, nice drums, lots of energy, and i really like how the samples are worked in

Thanks Kevin! It was fun throwing it together.

Great jam piece. I to want to hear unabridged version.

Thanks Larry! :)

Great workout, G. But it's a bit long.

Thanks Paul! :)

If you load it up in Sonar, and use that time stretch thing you can adjust the length to suit your own tastes. <G>

Cool, moves nicely. I would have like a little less drums, and a little more of the hot keyboard. Nice mix.

Daryl

Thanks Daryl! :)

The drums are mixed up because I did this bit primarily as a drum exercise.

Glennbo,

Weird piece. Seems like that's what you were going for though. It would work better for me if there were something to hold on to - not a refrain necessarily, but some kind of theme - personal preference. Other than that, I liked the lead sound - it's kind of cheesy but it sounds good in the runs - and think the drums are well-done but could use some distortion. The self-conscious laughtrack outro is a nice touch.

Thanks Jonathan! :)

Weird and fast was what I was going for. The lead sound is something I cooked up just for this bit. I'm using a native patch to the FM7 called "Six-String" that I doubled with a good quality sample of an accordian. I'm playing everything on this, and did play all the parts at the full 170 BPM except for the solo keyboard, which I played at about 3/4 full speed (hey I'm a drummer), then clicked it back up to the full 170 BPM. ;)

Solid groove! Exceptional piece. Was reminding me a bit of ELP. Nice keyboard work!!

Thanks D! :)

I dig most of ELP's work. In the first few albums, Keith was on fire.

Wow, talk about energy, man! Not bad at all. I enjoyed this neat piece of yours. Thanks.

Thanks Heinz! :)

It was a lot of fun playing all the parts on this. I had to drink a lot of coffee though. <G>

Awesome, loved every second of it thanks for sharing.

Thanks Grant! :)

It was lots of fun creating it!!!

Hey, I bet you're a drummer.

I'm not a big synth fan but I thought the song was pretty good. I'd like to hear a good singing, growling guitar going to town with it though. The drums so great!

Yeah, I am primarily a drummer. I gig live on acoustic drums and record with a set of V-Drums connected to DFHS. I played everything on this cut. Real bass, real single coil guitar, virtual Fender Rhodes, and the solo, which I did cheat on. Everything was played in real time except the solo, which I played about 3/4 real time speed. Hey, I'm just a drummer! ;)

Glennbo,

A nice high energy piece with great potential. Thanks, I enjoyed that.

Bill

Thanks Bill! :)

This was a lot of fun. Glad to see that someone else out there is abusing their coffeepot. :)

Thanks Matt! :)

Yes, much coffee was used in this short production!!! <g>
