Funky - Down With It

Description

Well... I got up...had lots of things to do.. Decided to play some piano while waking up... Six hours later... Didn't do scratch of what I was supposed to do..Instead..I got this song...or attempt..that is..Still under construction..
A loungy / downbeat track with still some room for a nice lyric and maybe some sort of solo? Dunno.. I'm glad to hear your guys's thoughts about it.. And also what you think of the mixing? Should I drop the sax? Grtz & thanks!

ow yes yes i like that bassline make it just that bit louder that it comes just a litlle more upfront :)
the litlle snare fill breaks are cool man, sounds very clean! nice composition, a chill melody on top of that all, and you got yourself again a typically fun-k track ;)

pwooooooooooh too good bro!! Super compo, sounds very much ala Portishead ... you got the groove and the funky touch *applaus* ;) the story is very nice, sweet sounding and a great fav for tonight!

It's got some typical Funky-elements. Indeed the bassline is very funky. Don't even consider removing that sax man, sounds great! I also liked the vibras very much.

The drum programming is great, I wish I could have my drums sound so lively and real. I really like that little drum variation with the toms.

Only thing which you need to revise imo are the choir pads, which seem to drown out the vibras a bit at certain moments.
Maybe also some more variation to the sax melody? Really dig that instrument, fits perfectly to the song, but you could vary its melody more, or let it play longer parts, with more modulation/melodies...

Thanks guys!!!!! :)

More particular:

@ Intrinsek: Yes! I need a strong vocal on this one..'s Gonna be tough though..
@ Transynth: Yepyep..The bassline needs to come more upfront..You're right... Can't take all credit for the drums there they come out of a vsti... I tweaked the sounds, combined some..and made pattern changes.. I'm more focussing on melo's & composition lately..I'm not that strong in programming drums.. Gonna search a chill melo... Grtz
@Aphone: :) Thanks man! Really honoured comming from the ebel masta of triphop & other smokemusic :P Thx for the support man! Grtz
@Rabauw: I wonder what those typical Funky-elements are that you guys drop from time to time :) I'll leave in the sax, but yea..I'm gonna follow your suggestion & try and search for some extra nifty melo's ;) I'll check the mixing of the choirs..Didn't noticed it yet...I'll check in detail later. About those drums..Check what i've put up here @ Transynth..Can't take all credits for them...Wanted to make 'm sound as 'live' as possible..Feared that it was somewhat over the top, but I guess it ain't ? :) Grtz
@Distreality: Glad to finally have a distreallity comment/thumb up ;) Grtz
