Name: Going to Town by SlapsLicks
Duration: 2 min 40 s
Description: Will always love that I wrote this song while homeless living in a tent. Recorded some bass tracks layered over eachother on my phone while the sun was rising. Everytime I hear it im brought back to the woods. Which is funny because I wrote it thinking about going downtown.

Funky as hell and very inspiring! Love the rythmic interplay and production a very cool piece of music!😎👌🏿

I like the insistent drumming on this genre bouncing reggae, funk, experimental dub.

Lyrics:
Mechi - Tranquilita
Si pa mi lo quiero yo solita
No estoy pa’ jugar, ser tu mistress
Sino nos vimo’ hasta la vista
Y me voy tra tra tra tranquillita

Tra tra tra tranquillita
Sigo tra tra tra tranquillita
Tra tra tra tranquillita
Chillin tra tra tra

Que a mi me respetas yo soy una estrella
Pa mi y pa las mias tragos y botellas

Me han buscado toa la vida
que no ves
que no ves
Yo reparto vitamina
pa tener pa tener
En la cama y si me rinde pa después
en el piso y luego contra la pared

Si pa mi lo quiero yo solita
No estoy pa’ jugar, ser tu mistress
Sino nos vimo’ hasta la vista
Y me voy tra tra tra tranquillita

Tra tra tra tranquillita
Sigo tra tra tra tranquillita
Tra tra tra tranquillita
Chillin tra tra tra

Que no ves yo no ando buscando dinero
Money la tengo toa la vista eso no es lo que quiero
Ey
Primero, Déjame mostrarte lo que quiero

Tra tra tra tranquillita
Sigo tra tra tra tranquillita
Tra tra tra tranquillita
Chillin tra tra tra

Collaborated with my good friend and band mate Pat Howell on mandolin to compose this uplifting tune. We first played it as an offertory at church but wanted to do more with it in a studio setting. We like the results and hope you do too. Named in honor of Pat's new puppy, now a very energetic dog:)

For the 31st Solar Kama Sutra song I decided to challenge myself a bit and do something in 7/4 time.  I tried remembering a band I heard do that and thought, "Isn't Pink Floyd's "Money" in 7/4 time?"  I remembered hearing it and thinking it was...

...  Turns out it is!  So for that reason I thought of Pink Floyd, and tried to do a Pink Floydish sound.    It's also a nod to Radiohead's "Pyramid Song".  I tried to capture the same feeling that song gives me, but with Solar Kama Sutra this time. 
(by the way, Solar Kama Sutra has always been just one person.  It's just the name for what I call the music)

Since Radiohead already used "Pyramid" which is well-known since ancient Egypt to be the coolest shape, I had to go with something else.  "Sphere Song" and "Cube Song" ?...  Well...  Those song titles just aren't gonna work....   Maybe "Dodecahedron Song"?....  Hmm... That actually sounds pretty catchy...  Feel free to use it!  

 My vocals are used more heavily on this track than it seems.  Throughout the track I tried to make my vocals sound like guitars and other instruments

  And definitely hats off to Pink Floyd for making a hit song in a 7/4 time signature.   How many times has that been done before?!

And of course, hats off to Stonehenge.  The ultimate inspiration for this track

lastly, much respect & love for all of you who have dropped by once again

Stonehenge Song

C'est une composition qui souhaite mettre en évidence les effets de miroirs qui semblent animer les siècles qui se succèdent.
L'ambiance actuelle rappelle assez celle des années 1930, en France comme en Espagne, même plus largement en Europe. 
Cette période elle-même fut inspirée par la commune ou d'autres mouvement sociaux plus anciens.
On essayera de n'en cultiver alors que le meilleur et repenser les erreurs qui ont pu être commises et qui font 
qu'aujourd'hui, il semble nécessaire de reprendre les combats qui ont démarrés il y a des siècles pour faire avancer 
le processus révolutionnaire qui n'est plus seulement urgent et nécessaire, mais vital.

les siècles se ressemblent

Les siècles se ressemblent

Terrible bass player with shifty equipment
