The Fremantle Doctor


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
Some of you out there know of my recent trip home to Australia... while there I was re-energized by the wonderful fusion of heat, insect noises, birds and sun and inspired to try and transpose these wonders into my music.

In my home town of Perth, the nearby port of Fremantle lends its name to the most consistent afternoon seabreeze on Earth.. a god send for the inhabitants sweltering under temps of up to 45C.

This is my ode to that healing tonic known as "The Fremantle Doctor"

this is a little piece of genius.. most people on here havent got a clue how to use l;oops to compose.. u are genius at ai.. i see u often get overlooked on here by people who dont really understand how GB is itself an instrument, which u play masterfully.

like.....a total stroke
is entirely possible as i listen to this.
it's brilliant- organically pulsing groove cushion.
more character than your average beans- every
sound comes across like a kiss once she really gets
going. love it.!

Finally...
...I've come across a fellow Aussie. I thought I was all alone out here in MacJams land. Then I saw this title on the weekly picks and thought "hang on, 'Freemantle Doctor', only someone of the purest blood on Earth would call a song that".

I must say, I'm not really into electronica, but this is really well done. It certainly captures a mood. Fantastic mix. The change about three-fifths of the way through is timely and puts a very interesting spin on the first part of the song. Be proud. Go Aussie!
