Paul Parker & Harlem Nights - RIGHT ON TARGET REVISITED

Inspired remix of a DJ Misjah & Oedla track ''Violence", made in 2007. Only used Oedla's vocal. For the drums no MIDI sequencer was used, just banging on the keys of a sampled drumset, with some organs, rhodes and bass, making a jazzy violent sex soup, as I felt the title implied. 

Made with Ensoniq EPS-16+ and EMU ESI-32 samplers. Had no analog synths yet. Unreleased.
