The Dark Room

I have been composing this piece for quite some time now and I am happy with the current result uploaded here. It's a fun, jazzy, bopping track with overdriven drums, horns, and a surprise guest named "Flute". Enjoy.

Can't get it to play. Anybody else have the same problem?

Nah, it works fine here Mica.

I dig it. That "flute" guy rules. Very fun and well done. I like the bass at the end too.

What did you use to put this together? A workstation?

Works fine for me too, mica.

The extreme clipping (sustain-wise) of the cymbal sample is hilarious! And... you've passed the 6-year-old listener approval test. My daughter gives it a big thumbs up. And man, if you make something that a kid can dig (and I'm not being sarcastic here, I'm sincere) then you've really come up with something. Good work!

I like this song...it has a subtle four tet-ish vibe to it. I'm also interested in how it was created...were these instruments sampled (and if so what library)?
