Funk Is Us

I'm actually in the middle of making a bigger change to the process of how I write and produce at the moment, so wanted to do this week's track quickly so I'd have the time to we work on that. So if we a bit of loop finding, chopping & editing, in theory quick and easy just to get it done (took about 3 hours all in). Anyway it ended up being a lot better than I expected and I think better than some of the stuff I'd done in the past couple of weeks. Also I incorporated feedback from the past few weeks, turning the hats down (thanks Onezero) and also beefing up the drums (thanks Mechlo & Nikola). Now to try and change how I'm writing overall, although quick and dirty seems to work.

You had me from the start. A simple kick and bass, and my soul is vibing! Loving the spoken word sample. Is that your own voice? Downloaded and Fav'd. Hope you're new setup can produce quick and dirty just like this!

This is so awesome--great, great hooks, fine melodies in the synth and piano, excellent vocal riff.  Thanks for the shout-out, too--glad to help!

Awesome!
