Body Slam
My 5th remix.
Tim Follin is one of the few old school composers who managed to not only put drums into their tunes but even established real grooves (listen to Bionic Commando for another example).
This is what made me do this remix.

Special credits go to the main Bongo-Man Stefan Korff, percussionist, who slapped his phunkee bongos to this shuffle beat for me in the studio.
(The photo btw is real. :-) )

Thanks also go to my colleague Tim, who lent me his ugly ugly Samick-Bass (but it has that J-Pickup I needed for the sound)
All guitar and bass parts were recorded using Guitar Rig this time.

Have fun!

REVIEW BY zoci (19/12/2004)

Great stuff, very funky & groovy! Remembers me the days playing Interstate'76 like hell! Maybe RK got otherwise inspired by Robbie, Tobbi und das Fliewatüüt (or the cover from Frank Popp Ensemble), a german 70s tv-series?! :-)

Overall:


Dan shouts: Toe tapping, finger strumming lovin piece. Excellent choice of instruments, just something I cant put my finger on tho that would make it outstanding
Waz shouts: Pretty nice, this. Sort of a cross between 1970s prog (check the organs out! ) and a police cop series. Nice use of electric guitar too, and works very well.
c64glen shouts: Funkay
ifadeo shouts: Groovy & funky.... You can smell 'Starsky & Hutch'....;-)
