Hyottoko
This is fantastic! I love everything about it, especially your solos in the middle... the synth solo is crazy! This is one of my favorite Tadashi compositions.

Wonderful stuff Tadashi!!
Our very own oriental funkmeister does it again - You produce some of the best drum grooves anywhere, and can hold your own with anyone when it comes to funk. Bass, guitar and keys all in perfect places in this piece. Excellent synth solo. This had me really moving in my chair down here in the wilds of southern New South Wales - thanks Tadashi, absolutely amazing music.
Best wishes,
Neil

Every note and every beat...
...is right where it needs and wants to be...

I love the guitar playing, of course, but I'm also very aware of the interaction between the bass line and the drumming....

The mix is very clear, too, so every instrument has its proper space....

It really is funky all the way through, and not at all 'busy'....

Great stuff to dance around the room to...

An instant favorite, Tadashi...

Seems to me...
this would make a great addition to the "Rush Hour IV" movie soundtrack, Tadashi.

It's *Fun-key Funk.*

Some sweet guitar chops on the break in here. ;)

Karmatoburn,
Thank you very much.
I wish to express my gratitude for a warm word.

However, I am not playing all musical instruments.
Synth is a program.
The bass and drums also.

I play only the guitar.
