IT`S FRIDAY FEB. 1ST 2008, SO I THOUGHT WHAT BETTER TIME TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FUNK BAND "GUARDIANS OF THE GROOVE".
A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE REQUESTED TO HEAR MORE "LIVE DICARLO" TRACKS, SO HERE YOU GO.
THIS IS WHAT I DO WHEN I`M NOT WORKING IN THE STUDIO. :D
ONE OF THE BEST FUNK BANDS I`VE EVER HEARD OR HAD THE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH.
THIS IS AN EDITED VERSION, OF THE 20 MINUTE VERSION.
HOPE YOU ENJOY IT. :D
BAND MEMBERS.
CRAIG BURTON; LEAD VOCAL, TONY HURDLE; TROMBONE, FUASI ABDUL KALIQ; SAX, DANIEL; TRUMPET, ARENO ANNUKU; GUITAR, RAMANI KRISHNA; 7 STRING OVERWATER BASS, SAMBA SOCK; PERCUSSION, DICARLO; DRUMS, AND SPECIAL GUEST TROY AFFLICK; VOCAL.
RECORDED LIVE WITH WAVLAB ON A NOTEBOOK IN STEREO BY THE SOUNDMAN JULY 2005.
MASTERED BY DICARLO FOR ONLINE MIXING AND MASTERING.COM
NOTE; THIS IS JUST A TEST MASTER.
DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE ORIGINAL MIX WASN`T THAT GREAT, AND THE DRUMS AND BASS WERE RECORDED TOO LOW, I HAD TO WORK WITH THE EQ`S TO GET THE BASS AND DRUMS UP TO A DECENT LEVEL.
THIS WAS A DIFFICULT PROCESS, BECAUSE THE HORNS AND THE SNARE DRUM ARE NEARLY THE SAME FREQUENCIES, SO IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO BRING UP THE SNARE WITHOUT EFFECTING THE HORNS, ESPECIALLY THE TROMBONE.
BUT I MANAGED TO BRING BOTH THE BASS AND DRUMS UP TO WHERE THEY SOUND PRETTY GOOD.
I REALLY WISH I COULD HAVE MIXED THIS, BUT YOU CAN`T PLAY DRUMS IN A BAND AND MIX THEM AT THE SAME TIME. :D LOL [/b]

The intro stuff almost made me skip it ... glad I didn't ... the song moves like a hungry snake on speed. SNAP-ZAP heart attack. The bass player clearly had a gallon of espresso right before this set (G) . I prob would have mixed the vocal a tiny bit back and let the drum come thru more - so - that's a complement right?
Cool tune for my morning - great change of pace... and now I need a nap (g) -

I don't get the opening part, it didn't do anything for me. However once the music kicked in I got into the groove, very good sound. I was hearing the big band funk sound of the late sixties such as Tom Jones band. I think the music performance is fantstic but I would look at what the opening was all about.

As always your mixing and mastering is excellent. Did this have a James Brown groove or what.?? That must have been an outstanding band to be a member of,and listen too. Great musicians ALL. You were layin' down a sweet beat,,,,,I almost felt like the brass section had a hard time keepin' up with you. Great Track. !!!!
