It might well be a mixture of jazz and funk - junk.

probably funk-jazz? i've heard of that genre before.
anyway...a little personal opinion of the recording.. hmm..i feel that the song doesn't really flow. it's like..there's no place to breathe u noe. maybe should cut down on the lead parts. like..there's no telling whether it's like a chorus or verse. it's juz continuous playing....maybe there's no chorus or verse. but there has to be...how to say..like..like sub parts la..u can't juz keep playing noe wat i mean?? no hard feelings..u can ignore this..

erm which instrument did u played, the drum beats sound abit off, no offence

 

[purplehaze3691]

I am using a boss drum machine, I played the bass and the guitar parts. I am a bassist so the guitar lead is not very good

Thank you for listening
cheers

Nice drum set ... :lol:

very funky feel Ken ... the bass line is cool ... rhythm sud let it 'ring' alittle longer, lick not that smooth ... but u r getting it ...

nice work !

I think it's a good effort, especially since this is an original track.

My constructive comments:

- A funky drum track like this cries out for clean funky strum rhythm
- timing on main motif slightly off
- low register guitar overdubs a bit out of tune

Apart from these, this track has potential.

just some pointers: the guitar's still slightly sharp on some strings. that, or you're fretting quite hard that it's bending the notes sharp. the bass is out of tune with the guitar too. less reverb on the lead sound might be nicer.

did you program the drums? they're nice!

 

[purplehaze3691]

Thank you for your comment and I have recorded the guitar parts again, I just altered the drum part from the drum machine a bit .

the lead sounds like it's floating over a groove, like jazz on top of groove.

but it's definitely not jazz.

quite abit of tempo problems.

the drums sound too mechanical.
