How can you go wrong when starting with such a killer groove?
Swapped out the drums (only kept one of the shaker tracks), added a kinda juju guitar thing and a heavy guitar thing and a sample from an actual voicemail message left for me from some VC guy. (He's saying "utilizing for increasing internal growth"). Also chopped up and reconstituted sax parts.
The result has four distinct sections of guitar and sax parts all riding over the Charlie Hunter guitar/bass lines, and theoretically it comes together as a single tune -- if it doesn't hang together then maybe it's supposed to be a suite.
I've been listening, playing, and mixing with that Charlie Hunter groove for the last week and it just doesn't get old! Amazingly fun to play with! Thanks for sharing the project. :)
