Back with Edinburgh's master funk rock guitarist Ian Tait with a world groove called The Awakening.  This one combines a number of styles, from dance to rock to hip hop and includes a Middle Eastern vibe as well.  Kind of a blending of many cultures and grooves.  Ian's done so much of the 25 tracks we used to create this, with his great lead play, harmony, wah rhythm and more.  

Check out Ian's wonderful gallery of compositions and playing:  https://soundcloud.com/ian-tait

And for a collection of the almost 20 tunes we have recorded together so far:  https://soundcloud.com/jamie-rhind/sets/cooking-with-ian-tait-1

The Lagniappe Recorder
Lagniappe is a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase (such as a 13th doughnut when buying a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."
Or as I say "a little something special".

Shabboo Harper began producing her works, including writing lyrics to hers and other musicians' songs, in 2016. She is the author of hundreds of texts and poems. In addition to her own productions [singles and EPs], released on prestigious labels, she also recorded and published some successful collaborative tracks, albums and unique remixes. The variety of genres is immense from Ambient, Chillout through Dark Techno, Hardcore, Witch House, Electronica, Progressive House, Psytrance and Downtempo. In all artistic projects she always uses her own vocals. Shabboo's favorite styles are: Ambient, Chillout, Neo Soul, Industrial, Experimental and Techno. Her creation is strongly associated with dark, gloomy soundscapes full of mystery and sensuality. Often enriched by captivating melodies and differently shaped background. Music inspires in its diversity, while lyrics encourage to deeper reflection...

While drums are my first instrument, guitar will mostly be featured here  and almost everything else you hear will be programmed, including drums. I just don't have the gear or the space to record them.
Comments and shizz will be appreciated verily yo. Feel free to contact me also.
