The American Belizers

A Greg St. Regis requested, rework of my track, The American Dream, which he was certain needed refocusing & melody (sung over the phone); that's his "mosquito" - thanks @saintregis ;) - melody, ultimately harmonized. Much more fund to play than expected, BTW.

And just like the old days, when my brother would reign in my feral overgrowth of ideas, sometimes secretly, he was... right—again!

Glorious Eb Maj main paraphonic riff: SE-3X

Fender Rhodesy and other non-Rhodesy paraphonics: SE-3X

Supplemental polyphonics, FX, basses & “housey” turnaround: CODE Omega8

Leads, most Basses & FX: the mighty & always immediately marvelous, SE-02

Needle-dropped, durty guitar leads: Throwback Grecco Burrato on the ModMax Filter & Phasor

Stutter Basses: Boomstar Modular Sensei

Stolen (think repurposed) SE-3X bass slide: Keys 2 Legend, Monte Neuble

Analog Drums: Boomstar Brotherhood—far too many synth hi hats litter my Analog streets, with their trademark, pinched and punchy frequency fulfillments, but I love them so.

Dope visuals up on Insta.

Enjoy,

The American Belizers

This one take rubato—groove sans tempo—SE-3X paraphonic improvisation, shares sonic and emotional space with many SE-02 “split notes” polyphony colors, indulgent ’02 basses, 70’s St. Regis Yamaha C7, Boomstar Brotherhood Drums, and careful & careless SE archive needle-dropping: ModMax/Wolftone Grecco Burrato guitars and Catero Colbert vox being highlights… at least that is what I care to remember, or wish to divulge.

My freeform lullaby & lament inspired one regular listener to write: “Had to listen several times and still hear new things, nascent melodies flying about and chattering mischief sneaking throughout a scene of almost there things, just listened again and thought I heard a real piano at 1:20-1:23. Endless discoveries.”

He did… but no mention of Third Stone Records artists St. Regis’ New Jack Swing drops!?!

Enjoy,

p.s. Easter Egg features stereo pulsed & piqued Omega8. "That was a gift."

Once Upon a Synthplex:

Tonestar 2600 kick thumps & '80s quality "Simmons" toms + @huston.singletary ’s groove merchant ways / heavy (he is my brother) harmonic vision + layers of SE-02 “split note” polyphony & monophonic bass ’n’ lead bravery + selfless SE3X accents—paraphonic and m-phonic + Boomstar Brotherhood claps, snares, shimmering addl. perc. (Boomstar SE-80 mainly) + a sprinkling of SurgeXT + Grecco Burrato crunch vault gems + Folktek visuals, made this story...

Wait those MIDIMINI V30 "How do you beat that?" "quica" breakdowns. Nice.

Kingdom Inside—listen to it.
