Listen, I don’t know my old school from my elementary school, but I know a kickin’ mix when I hear one. Great job on this one. Some people know that I use my Windows Media Visualizations to test out the production value of mixes I hear (and more importantly mixes I make). I have never seen anything as dazzling as some of the stuff that went on the screen with this one. More please ;-)!

Space Boy Funk..
Can’t ya see that he’s a star…. He’s individual.. and there’s that `old school’ tag again. I wonder if they said that to J Timberlake when he released Signs in 2007. As current as anything i have heard… |

Wow..Reminds me of some old Lonnie Listen Smith with a touch of the Blackbryds. Old school R&B/ with a hip hop twist. Really Digging the strings and brass, and that bass is no joke.
Very Well Done. Thanks for the head nod. |

Fantastic musical work. I’m not a huge fan of this style of rap (I’m more a De La Soul/Tribe called quest kind of a guy); but the instrumentation is outstanding - complements the vocals very well and is balanced just so.
Great work. It’s a good day to come and listen to new remixes here. :) |

thanks colab. Yes, I have some friends who are in the same camp as you regarding taste in hip hop (de la soul/tribe etc). I guess I’ve always liked bigger orchestration and sound (with a bit more pop vibe) so I guess that’s how I approach things. I appreciate your comments. ’ )

One question Laswell: What kind of car do you have to proove EQ settings?? ;-)
No matter where you sit behind the wheel, it seems it has no bad influence on your sound or your muisical skills. Really great old school vibe in a fantastic soundframe. |

well…actually I have an old Honda Accord with a pretty decent factory stereo. It’s a pretty great test for my mixes. I did however get some new JBL Monitors with the room correction chip built in. It’s made a huge difference in mixing since I’m unable to treat my room with bass traps etc. Thanks for the nice feedback!

Years ago, I once had a Diahatsu Jeep that i crudly sampled for a drum kit. The floor pan with the rubber mat made a great clicky kick sound with the flat of your shoe. I hit the seat to get a smacky snare and the indicator sound was a perfect hi hat. I got a tom off the side panel and tuned it into a full set.
Sounded good aswell. |

This is a solid mix, I can hear a bunch of other samples on this site that could’ve fit in too…perhaps in the future you could mix in some of those sounds as well. Good work.

I think you’ve produced the perfect style of music for the style of the vox. Fits very, very well for me. A sophisticated funky rap!

My apologies, Lass - I got so into the song that I forgot to leave a review! You & K go together like Macaroni & cheese! This is so funky and smooth at the same time! Lass, you’ve already blessed me with your Eye Magic Mix madness so I guess I gotta come up with something that Kcen and I can wreck together! And don’t worry, Lass - you ALWAYS have work!

I like this one too. The lyrics are great. The rest is great too, but I do like the lyrics…
