Description : One of my collaboration tracks with my brother Timbassman known collectively as 'Bassman 'n' Jones', the original version of 'Solar Funk' was written over 3 years ago but ended up a muddly and weakly structured version which got bad reviews on the Buzzmusic website. A year later I improved the song by adding an electro-progressive-house element to drive the track not only making it more funky but more danceable and a lot more listenable! The sung vocals, guitar loops and the minor 303 glitch edit were composed and performed by Timbassman. The main synth and percussion programming, spoken vocal, composition, mixing and production was done by myself, Davey Jones.
This track sounds really cool, and definitely funky! I agree with aberon, that there seems to be some distortion on the overall mix, could just be from encoding to MP3 though. I like the vocals a lot, they really make the track what it is! Those guitar loops are pretty cool as well! Enjoyable track man!
Thanks for your comments, Spivkurl. You may be right about the slight distortion being down to the encoding as it's only 128bps whereas I normally prefer to encode at 192bps for extra clarity. --Davey--
I do nat know the earlier version but you reach your target in any case I think. In some parts really catchy. Very distorted in parts, but this is intended maybe. However a cool and funky tune.
Good Job...
Thanks for your thoughts Aberon and glad you enjoyed this. Yes, the vocals probably sound on the distorted side due to the tube-amp FX I was giving them to create the character of the tune, dunno whether I should have or not but still...Cheers for taking the time to listen and comment. --Davey--

Description : 'Love will find you at the right time'...This track is about how we vibrationally attract love. From my recollection, in the early 20s/teen years, a typical place to encounter this wonderful force was the Disco. (Kay)

Description : Continuing my journey with sampling. This was mostly an accident, and not where I originally thought it would go but I'm happy with the destination. I started with the track Real Reel Switcher by Eunice Russ Frost, which has a slower melancholy swing to it, however I've been playing a bunch of older video games lately, with SSX being in the mix heavily, so this track ended up taking on a bit of that for inspiration as well. Would love your thoughts.

Description : Updated 12/2/2022. This is an interesting redo of a funky and fun composition. I gave it more polish by switching to a different drum kit, swapped the flute solo for a synth, then infused more flavor into the guitars, bass and organ. Then lastly tweaking the final master. Can you tell the difference? Let me know. Enjoy.
