Another slow moving tabla and dhol influenced track, maybe a bit too long and lacking some variation, but that's all I had time for, not sure how some of you put together such complete tracks in one week, but I'm glad you do as I love listening to them.  Thanks

This is really nice. For me, something about it really harks back to mid-90s downbeat stuff. Downloaded.

Thanks, I'm glad you feel that way, the 90's vibe was totally what I was going for, I guess I'm stuck in that era

Wow - I'm constantly blown away with how much rad tunage there is on WB!  Digging your vibe.  Are those grooves at the end from the old Future Music magazine CD's by any chance?!

Thanks for the comments, everything was done in reason, but I used a couple dhol loops, I have a hard drive full of thousands of samples and loops with no organization, so not sure where the dhol loops are from, but certainly could be from Future Music magazine

Nice chilled but tough sounding vibe - asian sounds work great with the beats.

It def has that nice 90s vibe to it with the beat.  It reminded me a bit of some of the Orb's tracks from that era.  Nice work! smile

Excellent rhythms
Great build up!
