"Kung Fu Fighting" Hook & 64 Flutes cover Carl Douglas

[Jean Pierre]

  the song   Ilike also the punch line (the end?)

You're welcome, Hook. I started out learning the part on my new Akai keyboard controller. I was having a hard enough time playing it smoothly at the original song's tempo of 100 bpm, so I knew I'd never be able to keep up with your 132 bpm cover. So my plan was to play it at a slower tempo (90 bpm) and record that into a sequencer. Then I'd set the tempo of the sequencer to 132 bpm to bring it up to the correct speed. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to record midi to any of my software sequencers. After trying with several different programs, I gave up and decided to just program the sequencer manually instead, using the piano roll editor in LMMS. Then I exported it to a WAV file, loaded it into Audacity, and spent some time trying to line it up properly. When I finally got it sounding reasonably in sync, I exported a WAV file and MP3 from Audacity.

interesting and well done

This one did indeed bring back the memories, and for the first time I can understand the lyrics....

The flute part was brilliant, not the first clue how 64 did it, I'll just go with the thought he's a brilliant flute player.

Cheers
