"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." E:6:12

Henry Mancini & the lift!!

What a nice weekend. Really on a roll music wise. I am taking these songs slow, but really maximizing each part in each with the most groove!! For example, in one song, I added some filtered 808 hits, and got it right until it sounded on hit! Basic point, I am learning to take my time for the benefit of the groove! I added some basslines and recorded a couple more skeleton tracks. This James bond cut up themed album is taking awhile. But, it is also because I am sampling like a mad man. I notice the more time you put into pre production, the easier it is to sort a song out, quickly. I have learned a lot in the past couple months with regards to patience, attention to detail and how to work harder. God is really blessing me with lessons learned and wisdom gained. Also, am in the baby stages of working with an awesome vocailst. We have good chemistry and think we can write some great songs and maybe do some performing. Its an exciting project that is just starting up. The vocalist's name is Ariane, she has some vids up at www.youtube.com/yoitsariane

So, just motoring along. A song soon, and can't wait to start pumping out mayhem!

What I am sampling:

Henry Mancini- The Days of Wine and Roses- Some jazzy peices here, soft listening with mad groove. Highly recommend you give it a listen.

Henry Mancini- The Ultimate Mancini- Did you know he did the Pink Panther theme? Or a ton other popular movie, or show themes? Wow!

Thunderball- The Soundtrack- Awesome awesome awesome! Rent the movie, and hear the soundtrack with some rollerball action. lol!
