Loving the freeform style of this track! I create hip-hop tracks but thats only because thats just what I do - I love a bit of funk, and have been playing the piano for over ten years (specialising in funk) and i think that the musicianship demonstrated here is superb! How rigid was the layout of the track? was any of it improvised? either way, I like the fast pace and the way each solo seems to slide effortlessly into each other. Good work!
Hi sherido, the whole track in a way was improvised due to it being an original composition. The track has sections which I suppose makes it rigid, but without structure how would things fit together! The improvising really comes into it's own with the sax and harmonica solos which were first takes. I will at some point drop over to your page and check some of your tunes out.

I thought at first this track was kinda average... but that was before I realised that it was all about the gradual buildup. When the vocals and guitar kick in I thought the harmonies fitted together beautifully, and it definitely lifted my mood and made me smile. Are the vocals on the track your own? if so, you have an excellent singing voice. Overall - very nice.
