Here's my first project done completely in X2a, some Old School R&B in the Stax/Volt vein.....
 
For You
 
Hope you like it!
 
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Bob, you nailed this.  It takes me back to high school when I played in a big horn band, doing exactly this style of music.  Happy New Year to you, as well.

Thanks a lot Lynn, that's exactly what I was going for. I loved all that old Stax/Volt and Atlantic stuff. I really appreciate the listen and the comment!

Wow, this sounds big! I like the bottom end, it sounds punchy.

Nice one Bob. Gives me a Sons of Champlin vibe.
Good stuff.

Thanks Dodsie, I'm finally learning to play the bass with my fingers instead of a pick, gives it a lot better "rounder" sound I think....

Tim, thanks so much. Wow, haven't thought about Sons of Champlin in a while, need to revisit them, I liked them a lot. Got a new CD coming soon?

Thanks for the listens and comments guys, much appreciated!

Nicely done. Sounds great.

Thanks Shad, muchly appreciated.
 
I went to your page on the Composers Forum and listened to some of your work. Very unique and interesting. I liked the layering of sounds in Dragonfly.
Six Inches From The Mic has a really nice groove and I've always liked spoken word pieces, this was cool.
My favorite that I listened to was God Made Me Do It. It's part of a series, right? A novel that you're writing with a song for each chapter? Terrific idea. This piece sounded very theatrical to me, I liked it a lot.
 
Thanks again for the listen and comment!

Nice, it really captures the vibe of those old stax records, but the production here is clearer. Good job.

Cool track. Not big on the vocals but the instrumentation is great. I really like those horns especially. Where did you find those horn sounds at or did you hire brass players?
