Very cool idea to do this to promote the plug in!

Jonathan Bufalino's interpretation of "Thankful N' Thoughtful", originally written and performed by Sly and The Family Stone.

I have tried to reproduced the feel of the original Simmons SDSV Demonstration Vinyl Disc from the 80s! it is not an exact copy but I tried to match the sound settings and the vibe... I think It showcase well the sound of the plugin :)
You can find the original demo disc here: http://youtu.be/ypvMF5TGB5o

A picked up a few bits from some jams I recorded when designing my ClapTrap 2 plug-in.

Everything played by me, real drums, keyz, vocals and claptrap.
OB-Xtreme has been used on the "funky clav" sound at the end.

As always vintage sounding mix, raw as f... :)

A funny silly jam about slapping the wrong into the right...
"Rick James slapping b..tches was featured in this track"  :D
You will start to hear "My Luv is a nasty bi..tch" even though I am singing "My luv is a masterpiece" ahahah...

Drums are VProm VST + ClapTrap VST, keys are OB-Xtreme VST, direct input bass and guitar, all is raw and unmixed.

Another quick jam recorded using Claptrap 2.0.
I didn't cut all the fat of this originally 15min long jam so it keeps some extra WTF is going on vibe.

Typical uncut raw un-edited funk, Prince & P-funk like using +2semitone tape speed.
includes nasty double slap bass and fake horns (session horns), OB-Xtreme synth

G-Funk Demo

ClapTrap 2.0 VST - G-Funk Demo -

Once I heard that hilarious story from Sly's memoir book about him and George Clinton paying a drug dealer with an "allegedly" 2inch tape copy of is latest LP and finally revealed to George Clinton that he gave him an empty blank tape ahahaha... So I needed to make a skit and record this which also serves as a tribute to Sly as he is one of my many musical heroes :)

Everything played by Aly James.
The song takes from those Sly songs, in order :
- Thankful & Thoughtful
- Babies Making Babies
- Thank You for Talkin' to Me, Africa

Custom Lyrics:
Sunday morning... got no money left
I should've been happy, well I still be there
Cops could've come and taken us away
but the bag man felt I should pay him another way
That's why I gave him the
Blank tape, well well.. I gave him fresh tape.
thank you.. mf you got...fresh tape.
