What's the story here? I like this groove...it reminds me very much of something Paul Simon would toss on an album.

Thanks. This is just something I tossed on the internet. I am a rock musician at heart but have been lately feeling the afro-latin influence. I grew up in a mostly Puerto Rican community. I have another piece like this that is much more complex.

Did I answer your question?

Kind of. What I really meant was this: did you play all the instruments and multi-track this?
posted by nosila at 10:51 AM on October 28, 2008

Yeah. I played everything.

Well, for a rock musician, you have a great rhythm. Also, is that a violin near the end?

no violin. You might be reffering to the pitch shifted saxophone, but that lasts throughout.

thanks

Yeah, it might be the sax. And the way I wrote that phrase sounded more like a come down than a compliment, but I meant to say that you have great rhythm, period. Not "great rhythm for a rock musician."

Not "great rhythm for a rock musician."

Oh, no worries. Having worked with many rock musicians I knew what you're talking about.

Ha ha, this is fun! That pitch-shifted sax is really cool.

Wooooo!

The ending sounds like a punchline.

This song has been in my head all day. And I have been dancing instead of walking, everywhere I go. I think it's related.

Thanks for the kindness.

Now I gotta go dance my way to the Halloween Pwaarrty!!!

OK now invent a time machine, go back to 1978 or so, and go sell this song to the studios making sitcoms. I'm sure it'd go nicely with something on whatever night they air Barney Miller or Taxi.
