Duarte Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 This tune just started out as a bassline I recorded over christmas, then my brother just sent me this tune which has been built around it. Let us know what you think...

Nibody Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Is that an Upright on there? Another one of those cases where its not my usual bag, (though i do like a bit of oldschool hip-hop on the quiet!) but I quite like it. Shades of "The Streets" meets "Dizzy Rascal" meets early "Fun Lovin Criminals". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duarte Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Yeah it's an upright, recorded just using the K+K Bass Max..Glad you appreciate it man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibody Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Definately has some commercial potential buddy. Just had a second listen, and it's really growing on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 That's f***ing GOOD! I really like it! You have a really good ear for a tune mate. What happened to those tunes you did for a childrens' album? They were so good, even for old buggers like me, I loved them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skol303 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Love it! Sounds very fresh and original - kinda like 'The Streets vs. Roni Size', or something. Nice mix too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've started just mass recording basslines and building these tunes around them. It seems to work quite well The children's stuff has been put aside for now while we try and find someone to do artwork for the cover. We've had a few great people do fantastic work, so it's getting there slowly. I really want to get those out! Especially if they're appealing to older people too...

This is probably because all we listen to at the moment is the streets and Roni Size! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urb Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Nice man - I like it.... good work dude - programmed drums I take it? They sound cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShergoldSnickers Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 This one took me by surprise. Absolutely love it - there is nothing I would change. Just brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duarte Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 This is on overwhelmingly positive response...thanks. Beats are programmed, bass and snare sampled from a Tom Waits tune. Our mate (who is essentially the third member of this band) is working on his own remix, which I'll post when it's done. His work is always unbelievable!
