Kinda bossanova-ish.  I guess.  LSDJ, guitars, various percussionamajigs (all hail the mighty woodblock), toy piano, a few effects.  I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.  Sorry about the sloppy mixing and recording.  I only had an hour and a half to do the live instruments.

This is soooooooo good dude. Awesome blend of LSDJ / instruments. But we already knew you were good at that didn't we.

ditto. this shit is so prime

great job Robox, lovin' the feel of this one man - and ye awesome combination of instruments.
-having eigth arms is truely a blessing.

Ahhh dude.  You are one talented man with your chords.  Fantastic work on the LSDJ front too - some great sounds in here :-)

Thanks guys!

@cTrix - one of my goals with this challenge is to push myself with chords. And turning jazzy guitar chords into LSDJ arps is just too fun to resist.

When that lead comes in

Nice and crunchy. Very fine mix of guitars and LSDJ much as the others said. Really really nice key jumps/unexpected notes.  You should get that OP-1 you'll bring it to life smile

We Love This!

the combination of chip and live instruments has always been one of my favorite things to listen to. Your doing it well.

outstanding, looking foward to your submissions man, will be a lot of fun. Thanks for that one

Sooo sick love the concept too. diggin it

VEry nice! The chip bit stuff matches so nice with the live instruments! Looking forward to more songs!

cool track, indeed. i really think mixing lsdj with instruments is your strength.  makes it unique.  thumbs up!

this is happy song

I could totally bang a chick or bongos to this track.

holy shit dude...

I like the blend, nothing stands aside, it all fits together. Chip Bossa Fusion = you're doing it right.
I don't know why but some part reminded me of Totakeke from Animal Crossing.
