Focus on the Goodness (feat MOB)

By miraclemiles on August 7, 2022 11:43 pm

I'm relaxing right now in Long Beach, Washington on a holiday with family. Rode bikes along a trail that went by sand dunes, ocean and forest today. Feeling calm but pumped and ready to bounce into this sunny evening on the Pacific Ocean.

My friend Angelo, aka MOB (mangy old buck), sent me a few voice messages recently so I thought I'd feature those this week. Music is once again from the July 30 jam with Creatures Once partner Monstrosus. This was Jam 4 of 6. He played bass sounds on iOS apps. I did drums and keys. Just improvising along. We bobbed heads and went on a for a while.

I liked what MOB said about focussing on the goodness. He also said some stuff I didn't want in the track, so I cut it out of here. I wonder how often producers edit rappers verses? Oh the power to control the edit!

That sounds like an excellent calming vacation especially that bike ride.  Def a head nodder of a beat that gets solidified by the thick bass line and verses.  I too need to focus on the goodness!  smile

Really digging the goodness.

Thank you! It was good to get away and see the sea (well the ocean). I think this week I'm going to channel some of that ocean energy into something calmer. Focussing on the goodness is hard sometimes, but feels good!

Glad to here it, thanks for checking it out.

Love this! The processing on the vocals adds a nice signature, works really well with the voice. And 'my mind's focused on the goodness' is such a great line! It also makes it fitting that you edited it down to this: your mind focused this goodness big_smile heart

I hope you enjoyed the vacations! Summer is always too short!
That bass is smooth, and the drums are tasty as always. Nice Rhodes playing. Enjoying the vocal cutting/slicing/processing/dissection. Fun one.

Thank you! I kind of throw stuff at vocals and see what sticks, then stop when it may halfway ok, glad this worked to enhance these voice messages. Yeah I love that line, great point, gotta cut out the negative bits probably if gonna emphasize the goodness in the song! Cheers.

Hey thanks! Yeah summer flys by, I think that every year. Perception of time is curious. It's all relative I suppose.

That's fun fun feeling! Pee wee makes me smile, grew up watching him Saturday mornings.

Focusing on the goodness is something we could all probably stand to do a little more often.  Glad to hear you were able to have a nice vacation.  Digging the hiphop feel of this one.

Really enjoyed just bopping to this one. Has an upbeat feel to it and something about it feels easygoing and free.

good song. great rapping. well done.

Yes, agree, hard to find it but the goodness is around. Thanks for checking it out, I think vacation got me in a hip hop happy mood.

Hey thanks so much! happy you liked!

Bop the head is mandatory MANDATORY. This is hella dope, love the looseness. Also will always tip the hat to MCs who represents the producer -- and this is like a battle rap where the MC doesn't even talk how good he is or how bad the other guy is, he's just like "yo the producer -- producer's dope."

YES to mandatory head bopping! Glad you liked the loose feel. It's kind of loose out just not taking a lot of time to edit, but loose is ok sometimes right!? I'm guessing MOB will ultimately say hey this beat is too loose and jazzy for his liking, but he'll be stoked when he hears it anyway because I used his funny voice messages and we old old friends. You right, MC's usually talk about themselves most. He's so nice, he shouts me out before even hearing this beat, what a guy! Thanks for comment!
