Get Smart

[Blooby]

For those of you that read my earlier posts, you know I became stir crazy while looking after my sick mother.  The result was my purchase of a very frivolous Kaosillator.  I have since moved my mother 500 miles north to Atlanta, GA over a four day trip.  Since we were moving slowly, I had way too much free time on my hands in hotel rooms.  I guess you can figure out the rest.

The impetus was to make a funky rhythm track to solo over.  I took the last two-thirds of the solo off and inserted a Kaosillator solo.  I then gestated for a bit as I didn't know what to do with the last third (I was thinking sparse acoustic piano from a friend), but I struck on using a loop pedal to record a solo and then record it in its reverse mode (instant Jimi).  Bass is courtesy of the Boss octave pedal through my cheapo Strat.  Drums were programmed after the fact (in the Br).  I want to tweak the mix, but it is what it is.

Blooby, killer track man. I've been scouting out Kaosillators, myself, due to posts on here. I had been looking at the Korg Nanopad, but this thing is cool. Anyway, off subject. You tweak what ya want, but I think this is really crafty and well put together. Best wishes for your mother's health. Let's here mo of that Kaoss...

I just want to say that you are a very good guitar player, sir...I've had my eye on the Korg too because of this community....Wow! I'm really impressed by it on this track, but not as impressed as I am with your guitar work....The reverse solo is unbelievably COOL!! I don't want to start getting religious on here, but I feel for you man~ Good Luck!!

WOW this is just great!!!!

If you'd only posted the 1. third I would have been amazed. GREAT solo!! Really amazingly good!! Your fingers seem to flow effortlessly over the frets and hit just the right notes.

If you'd only posted the 2. third I would have been amazed. GREAT solo!! Korg should really sponsor this site

If you'd only posted the 3. third I would have been amazed. GREAT solo!! Even backwards the timing is perfect, that's easy enough on a slow floating song, but a song with this beat, now that's something quite different.

great work

Blooby, very cool indeed. The Kaossilator solo is brilliant, sounds just like a Keith Emerson synth solo! You've certainly got to grips with that baby. Great funky track here and the different solos make this a really cool piece indeed. Keep going with the Kaossilator - I want to hear more!

Cheers,

Nigel

Amazing track!

that is such a cool piece of music. I love it. The synth sounds brilliant and your guitar work is just great.
Hope your Mum is better, but what a gift she gave you eh? An opportunity to produce work like this.

It's fabulous.

Blooby... this is remarkable! Your guitar skills are something else, but that Kaosillator really steals the show with its prog-rock solo 'freak out'. To say you've mastered it is an understatement. A real one man band... !

Awesome...... the song was kicking without the kaosillator but you have really got another fantastic instrument in your bag.....

Holy crap that is goooooooooooooooood.  I have not yet figured out the kaossilator enough to get this kind of keyboard solo sound, I love it.  You have showed me that the Kaosilator is only limited by one's imagination and taking the time to play master it.  Great guitar playing also.

Totally terrific!!! Sweet K-Pad, and your guitar performance is magnificent. Very talented, you are! Hope your mom gets better.
