Funky Ace

For some reason, I struggled a lot with this one. Don’t even know if it can be considered a finished product.  Nonetheless, here it is for the world’s appraisal and judgment : D

Have fun and please comment.  I learn a lot from the comments.

Definitely a good deal of funk.

I get the feeling some parts have a bit of an awkward panning going on. Try filling the void in the other ear.

I noticed that too but ran out of time and didn't do the proper stereo analysis.  Thanks for noting.

Very mid nineties experimental funk. Cool breaks. The "brassy" bass is a little bit too loud to my taste, but it's a fun tune, anyway. Funky

I have a question: does the Korg Prophecy stands the test of time? I remember it seemed a little limited back then, being monophonic in the late nineties? is it some sort of "bass station" made by Korg?

I am glad you found it fun!

About the Korg Prohecy, I don’t think it was made to be a “bass station” but it ended up becoming something like that.  My music is very 90’s, 2000’s sounding so I don’t mind it not standing the test of time. However, truth be told, I hardly use its synthesizing power nowadays.  Most of my stuff is done with free VSTs.

Funky, indeed.

Sounds quite finished... Bobbing my with this one and the tuba sound is my fav smile
