Gil Scott Heron  - The Bottle (Disco Tech edit)

Stevie & Sly

Composed this a few years back based on a nightmare I had while living overseas - a day after a huge earthquake had caused my bed to go up and down as if in a fun house.

Lyrics

Everyone needs an earthquake
Everyone needs an earthquake
to move them back and forth
back and…
for a dream,
just a dream
a dream where things
are not real.

In my dream, I saw water fill the streets,
and I was standing knee deep,
And cobras moved
back and forth.
Ready to strike,
And I was frozen with fear (frozen in fear)

Interlude

And my mask was missing (shame on you),
And I grabbed my shirt to cover my mouth (you better!).
Please, I prayed, don’t let anyone see me (no, no).
I went through a hotel lobby,
and everyone was looking (security!),
But I kept my face covered
with my shirt (we're calling the police)
And I finally made it home
Just in time for the building
to sway back and forth (shake it, baby).

We all need an earthquake (up and down),
All need an earthquake (all around)
To make us go back and forth (back and forth, back and forth).
Oh baby, be my dream,
be my...
earth...
quake (baby, oh baby, oh baby).

Have a Good Time

A soul-funk opera for the age of algorithms – a tribute to soul music, to stage, to groove. An A.I. supported live album created with the energy of a real band, and the swagger of a real show. Written with love for funk, performed with digital blood.

What You Won't Do for Love

Here's another one of my personal edits that I've never planned on releasing in the Underdog vinyl series. In fact, I released it some time ago as an exclusive download on the great blog site, Dilated Choonz (http://dilate.choonz.com). This being one of my favorite cuts, growing up in clublife in Chicago, I wanted to give it a slight twist. As my man from Dilated Choonz, Kevvy K said, "Leonard has wisely treated this with a great deal of respect and chosen not to take away from the original production.. instead drawing it out to make it even more haunting and hypnotic." Couldn't have said it any better! 
Enjoy another exclusive edit!

Timmy Thomas - Why Can't We Live Together (Underdog Rework)

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
