bats brew Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 https://soundcloud.com/bats-brew/the-time-is-magic title track from the bats brew album "The Time is Magic' This track features a drum track that was written in Sony Acid, which is a pretty cool program. i used a USACG strat build, playing into a Peavey JSX Mini Colossal, which was a joe satriani design, and has a wonderful direct out with cab filter on it, which i used for all the guitar parts. njoy. 3

I sure did feel better after listening to this song!!! hello freddy! yep, funked up for sure... you know, i played in top 40 and funk bands for 5 years on the road full time, i definitely put in my time on the funk side! i dig funk, it's gotta make you want to shake your @ss. which is kinda the point of this one. thanks so much for listening and commenting
SteveC Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Oh yeah... that be some funky brew, Bats. The lead guitar has a nice slinky and effortless feel, and the supporting tracks are completely locked in.
arlen2133 Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Man! What a cool song to bob my head to! Got some really quick hands. So much so I had to back it up a few times to make sure my brain didn't miss anything. Absolutely adore your intro. And from that note on, I was hooked on the bassline. Congrats on another "keeper" man.
