Great track with great guitar tones and arrangements! Cool!

Super interesting arrangement on this! Love the composition. It morphs nicely a it goes along. Good work

Excellent soundtrack.  I like the emotion it brings and the mix is really good.

Almost has a medieval feel to it. Nice soundtrack well scored and produced with some great playing

This is really nice. It relaxed me and gave me a sound piece of mind.

"What The Fuck Are We Doing Out Here?" is a bold single released in 2024 by Ramon Inc., blending experimental trap with layers of synth, jazz mannerisms, and warm electronic salsa grooves. The result is a hybrid piece that plays with the contrast between the cool urban sound of trap and the engaging rhythmic fluidity of jazz and salsa.

The vocal sample that opens the track—with the repetitive phrase that gives the song its title—was taken from a viral video, lending immediate personality and a sense of existential urgency to the sonic narrative. This spoken word carries emotional resonance: a blunt, almost existential questioning that wanders through moments of introspection with a Latin twist.

The production utilizes minimalist trap beats and deep bass, contrasted with polyphonic synths and melancholic saxophones that evoke jazz in their dissonant chords, as well as electronically programmed salsa percussion (conga, timbal), bringing swing and tension simultaneously. The synth sections float over grooves and breakbeats, creating an acoustic microcosm where urban meets tropical, with an experimental and deconstructive tone.

The vocal sample that gives voice to the song is taken from an iconic and sincere moment of a reporter who passed away in 2014, but who remains alive in our memories for his courage and humanity. He responded to the pressure of a difficult day, revealing a very human side by expressing his frustration at missing his daughter's birthday due to an unexpected call to cover a simple traffic incident. This moving story, which reveals the man behind the microphone, reinforces the depth of the sample used by Ramon Inc., which pays tribute to a professional who dared to question his place in the chaos and who left a legacy of dignity and truth. May his daughter and grandchildren have a prosperous life, and may he rest in peace.
RIP Tailgate Jones (Thomas “Thom” Dickerson)

"What The Fuck Are We Doing Out Here?" is both a literal question and a sonic reflection—
a tropical-jazz trap that dances with chaos and wonders where we're all headed.

Okay, record level 40
With wood plate on
The note stand

Uh, as you can see there's construction underway here
Uh, they've dug out a little bit
There's water, has accumulated, traffic's backed up
In a city the size of Houston there's always traffic
So what's the big fucking deal?
What the fuck are we doing out here?
I asked you, what in the fuck are we doing here?
Hell, I don't know

LYRICS:

All we had was fire and fog
We needed not much more
You bring the food, I’ll drink the wine
It’s fine

Some days we just sit about
Breathing slowly side by side
And when we’re old, we’ll have splinters in our voices and breadcrumbs in our lungs
I’ll still be coughing ‘I love you’s'
But your ears won’t be so young

Some days were meant for sitting around

Time may deepen the creases in your skin
But I won’t mind
You’ll still be bold and decent
Still be warm as sunshine

Some days were meant for sitting around

Sitting Around

A more folk / country sound on this one

LYRICS:

The stone within a band of gold
A fairytale with parts untold
The words you write with the pen you hold compose the nightmares which unfold

To walk along the frozen path
To see the sadness in the laugh
It takes a week to walk a mile
Is that a grimace or a smile?

They’re holding hands while throwing stones
We’ll feel the chill within our bones
Is it too late to turn around before they burrow underground?

It's a one-time chance in a one-horse town
They promised that they’re never gonna let you down again
And again and again..

Band Of Gold

David J. Kemper is a composer & producer from Chicago, Illinois, city of big shoulders, (former) hog butcher to the world, and home of Nelson Algren, Carl Sandburg, John Dillinger and Al Capone.  It has been speculated (by Mr. Kemper) that the gritty, rough and tumble energy of the streets from whence he hails has given extra bite and backbone to the sounds that he comes up with.  It is a theory, anyway.  Don’t think.  Just listen.  

The music featured here is but a modest selection from the ever-growing DJK repertoire, solo releases (Wet Work), as well as his "other" band/project/whatever, Brahms' 3rd Racket.
