” [The] present program, presented to a capacity audience at Westbury, Long Island, on the evening following the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King, is highlighted by a song written upon that day by Gene Taylor, Nina’s bass player. Why? (The King of Love Is Dead) has the immediacy of a headline, the poignancy of tears for a loved one and the relevance of a siren in the night.” -Nat Shapiro

so here’s, a couple samples of the new stuff made from old jam tape samples. the trick was finding little pieces without any singing, so they could chopped up into loops. you know how it is… :-\
these should be ’bout ready for some nice vocal sounds.

it’s been too long since i posted any music, so i thought i’d put up a little bit of the new stuff i’m workin on.
this first track is actually *old* - a cassette tape recording from the tip-top lounge in SF, 1998.
i’ve been goin’ back to a lot of these old recordings and making new stuff out of them… it’s a challenge, but it’s kinda fun.
it’s also kinda funny how at the time we were playing music we wanted it to sound like something you would sample from, and here i am, almost 10 years later doing just that.
(in part 2 i’ll post an example of a new song made from old jams)
