Description
This was the first song I recorded so it isn't super defined. I did it with a couple friends. The drums were done with a Boss DR-770 (shown in picture) they fade from reverse to normal. The keyboard is a Casio SK-1. My lead is a little sloppy. There is a twelve string that comes in and out of the background and some backward slide guitar. It could probably use some bass. I'm always open to constructive criticism so don't hold back.

Bass
Thanks Feter. I know it needs bass. As soon as I get my hands on another bass I'm going to update it.

Cool experimenting
Nice effort, I actually get more of an asian vibe, maybe from your guitar tone and melody. some bass would be cool, but this works well on its own. I suppose if you don't have a bass guitar you could always detune your low guitar string and do something simple on it, or do some keyboard bass stuff.

Thanks Man
I said African Rhythm because that is what it said on the drum machine. You're probably right about the Asian thing. I have no idea how to write an African melody. I'll leave that to Paul Simon and the Africans I guess.

Smooth
overall feel to it. It does need to break away from the loop like pattern. Maybe bass or the guitar needs to go to another block of melody.

This is cool
