Hi folks, I,ve been working on this one for over a month, not that it took me that long to do, is just I got sidetracked and finally here it is. Started also as an all midi style and I modified it a little and added a solo by Jeff Lorber on electric piano. I've bee discovering a few gems among the all midi styles.
Anyway here it is:

Black Cat

Style is SDFUNK.STY (SD Funk - Even 8 Rock Style)
Style MIDI Instruments are : Acoustic Piano (1), Rock Organ (19),
RealTracks in song: 2620:Bass, Electric, FunkSwing16ths Sw16 085
RealTracks in song: 2621:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Swing16WahWah Sw16 085
RealTracks in song: 1776:Sax, Tenor, Soloist JazzFunkMovin Ev16 130
Loop in Song: Percussion Loops\Loop124bpm Cowbell Quarters 4 bars.wma
MIDI Drums :1 Standard Drum Kit (1)

RealDrums will be substituted :NashvilleEven16^3-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, HiHat Open

Cheers

Mike B.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

You always bring us the best stuff, Mike. I think I still have an 80s aftertaste for MIDI, but you definitely cleansed my music palate. This is so creative and a terrific sound.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Marty, you always so kind. Yes, I know most people don't li to work with midi, however like I said, there are a bunch of files that if you have an even a half decent source of sounds the result can be rather amazing, so, I am keen on that now. In fact I am about to post my latest one.
Thanks again

Mike B.

Nice groove that took me to a good place. Mix sounded great though I'm no expert. Good work.

Cool Jazz with a late 70s feel. I can imagine this in "Dirty Harry" or "Starsky and Hutch". Nice job

Super funky groove!

Great mix and instrumentation.

A very funky backing band.

Your music is always top shelf.

Thanks again. More to come

Well done!

As always your production sounds like a well honed club band.

The funk vibe was cool and the sax carried it so well.
