Excellent Gentlemen LIVE on KMHD's "The Drop Shop"- Tonight Alright/Sexy Girl

Dilla type groove first day I got my Akai MPK.

Early track I did with the Akai MPK and a new set of sampled drums. JP-8000 synth along with Rhodes and clavinet on this one.

Taters

Drums aren't mine, they were gifted to me from a producer friend, all I did was overdub three one-take tracks: clavinet, synth bass, and talkbox.

When Do You Get Off

Found the original dry mix of the Boogie Damn, released as a different mix on Reva DeVito's "The Catnip Collective" EP.
I'm playing electric guitar, clavinet, rhodes, and synth bass, and I'm also contributing some background vox with Michael "Beatzilla" Whitmore.

The Boogie Damn

Put this together in about an hour yesterday, virtual CS-80, JP-8000, Ableton drums and Swatkins electric guitar.

Mr. Girlfriend

Cheesy Ableton synths keeping me company on a Colorado trip.

Lyons Trip

Stay tuned for more talkbox madness and positivity.

Theme From The Positive Agenda

Took a hip-hop beat a friend of mine sent me and I "re-replayed" the chopped samples on keys to flip it into a live remix, redid the drums with 808 and Linn Drum plugins. Fun.

Zone Remix
