Perpetual Funk Follows Me Everywere

Just a jam groove thing I recorded over the last week....all guitars are line 6 Variax/Tele Model, Bass is a Rickenbacker 4001, drums are from the Mick Fleetwood Acid loops collection, which i sliced and diced to try and groove...all guitars and bass tracked thru Line 6 Podxtlive... Streaming Link:

    Perhaps a tad to much general reverb but I have been wrong before.

    Variax - I really enjoyed this - you are one funky mofo. Nice playing all-around - and the mix on this is really good.

    Good job.

    I enjoyed that. For some reason, I kept waiting for Frank Zappa to start a monologue.
    Yeah, there's a lot of 'verb, but I think it fits the mood.

    Cool.. Got that vibe about Zappa as well. I think the lyrics to I am the slime would work really well Love that Wah-Wah tid-bits!

    I used to play a ric 4001 in a band as a kid :-) birdseye maple 

    You have a bass transient right at :52 from some pop/slap technique that may could use a bit more love in your mix. hit it with an envelope.  Nice performances :-)

    Welcome to the "funk board".  You and YoYo get together and decide to do funk?  LOL!  I think the drums on this were very tight.   Good sound on the Ricky!   Very nicely done.  Very cool around the 2 min. mark!

    Great tight funky sounds with some tastey lead chops.  I particularly like the New Orleans/Meters style stop and starts.
    Nice one.

    Great funky vibe.

    I think I'm going to agree with Wookie about turning down the reverb just a tad.

    Also, I might turn up the bass a bit as well (but then again I'm a bass fan).

    Thanks,
