KSband 294 Posted September 15, 2021 I like this one, quite a toe tapper. What are those horns? They sound really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freddy j 590 Posted September 15, 2021 I too like this one. There is a lot going on but the central theme brings it back home to briefly settle for another aural adventure in this song. Nice!! Oh ya, what are those horns? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wookiee 1,692 Posted September 20, 2021 VSTi Horns? I like it though a different direction nicely experimental, there is a interesting sense of humour in the arrangement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhonoBrainer 1,784 Posted September 26, 2021 Loved it. Jazz carnies at their most unpredictable telling a hepcat story. Everytime I click on a song of yours - no clue what's behind door # three. Love that. cheers, -Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noynekker 367 Posted September 26, 2021 Fun stuff David ! . . . liking the driving drums a lot in this one, great dynamics they have. I have the NI Session Horns as well, but can't make them sound like this . . . it's like jazz goes to the circus, with that sad clown face watching me as I listen . . . and that horse sound, I've heard you use that before, is that a sample, or you have horses on your farm ? . . . it really helps add to the sense of fun I get listening to this . . . hmmm, maybe add some Vibraslap to put this over the top ?

bjornpdx 988 Posted October 5, 2021 Kind of an elephant sounding horn in there. I like the energetic drums where you stick in lots of musical bits. Very creative, David! -Bjorn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larry T. 221 Posted October 5, 2021 Well done....the intro, to me anyway, invokes the sweet's "ballroom blitz"....the arrangements of the horns are killer....enjoyed it 🎶🎺🎷🎹 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
