Woo Woo Woo I can say with a lot of confidence that this is my favorite of your solo works EVER and that includes Sun Dogs. I've had the good luck to be listening to a sneak of this for a few days and I've been wearing it out, playing it over and over. I really enjoy the addition of the bhangra flute and the few extra gleetchlab sounds and the strings on the outro in this version. Vac is great, I love these riffs. Downloaded, faved, boogied to a-go-go. Check out my latest song called Black Star (MJ Live Aid w/jgurner)

Lisa I'm glad you like the additions... at some point I just have to stop tweaking the dang thing and call it done :) Thank you for the early vote of confidence and the title suggestion, which I think is perfect.

how cool is that How did you do those vocals? Convergent forces of funk, space time continuum, and groove delectables from the garden of Dave. Outstanding. Loved the artwork as well. Check out my latest song called Texas stump

Cooool This is sooooo nice. Very fresh. The tune kept twisting and surprising me all the way through. Great arrangement and I especially loved the the way you used the vocals. (Kind of reminded me of Deep Forest's first album with the singing pygmies.) This song has my iPod's name written all over it. Best thing I've heard here at MJ in quite a while. Many thanks.

Wheeew! Really great sounds you have here. The ethnic or foreign-sounding vocals add mysticism to this song. It has a very infectious beat that makes you shake your head and tap your feet, and God forbids you listen to do this while you're driving and start bobbing up and down in front of the steering wheel. This has to have a no-driving or no-holding-a-sharp-instrument advisory to it. Check out my latest song called The Nightingale (music and lyrics by Oceans)

Leon Yes, this could be really dangerous with sharp instruments around, heheh. Those vocals are cool, aren't they? I love the sound of ethnic and tribal chanting and it really fits with the groove, and Steve's exellent bass and guitar work here. I think :) Thanks for listening, Leon! --- <a href="http://www.macjams.com/song/28781">Nataraja</a> Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)

Eduard Hey, you see Lisa doing that too?? I'm glad you enjoyed this mix, Drako, thank you. In this house, the essence of "ooh, I gotta get up and dance and bounce around" comes from the belly dancer... I mean, we've been introduced to a lot of awesome world/dance/world-dance music thanks to Kristi actively seeking it out for dances and classes. I think that Banco De Gaia and Transglobal Underground are the two groups that most inspired this song, and my aesthetic sensibilities owe them much.

Youth in the streets of Marrakesh Unusual style from you, very unlike "your" sound but full on riffy/catchy! Good blend of cultural beats and melodies. The vocal tracks are great - very world hip-hop. Dance chant! This is a unique blend of influences and sounds. The bass thumps along in a lively way and pins down the groove through all the various riff directions. Punchy and playful! Check out my latest song called Loop It or Lose It 9

Interesting integration of theme, visual, music I'm reading an interesting book now about "Utopian" myths in Western thought and how they have served as excuses for all sorts of weirdness and mayhem. By contrast, the image, the theme and the music all fit together here in a more integrated and cyclic world-view (rather than "progress" toward the "ultimate state"). Nice. |
| perceptualvortex said 1017 days ago (February 11th, 2007) | |

truthtable Cyclic world views might be derived from closer observation of the natural world than linear ones. Everything in nature cycles... seasons and the ebb and flow of everything: generations of plants and animals, and their relative populations. In the big picture, a cycle of creation and destruction seems like an appropriate paradigm, a pattern for what happens at every scale. But the personal, self-centered paradigm begins at your own life and ends with your death... a linear journey, where the dream is to be your best and acheive utopia before the end. I could imagine how modeling your thinking that way could help rationalize the weirdness and mayhem of a self-, culture-, or species-centric drive towards utopia. Thanks for listening, truthtable, and I appreciate that you identify my theme with the more integrated and cyclic world view! --- <a href="http://www.macjams.com/song/28781">Nataraja</a> Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)
