Band Members:"Slide" is brand new from Albany, NY's The Dirties. This was part of a 4 song demo project which i engineered and produced. You dont need to spend a fortune for good results!"Asthma Beats" is a work in progress from Aftertax which includes Mike "Sockboy" Gonzalez and myself. This is a great sing-along. See if you can pick up on the lyrics..."Da Bone" is a work in progress for Mike Gonzales and Aftertax. He provided the drum tracks and some other loops and i went with a Bootsy thing on the bass and added a few other things. Anyone interested in adding some tracks, this one is open for some collaboration."Can Ya Help Me" is a different kind of song for me in that i started w/ the melody and the intention of writing a "song". I heard someone once say if you write a tune a day, you gotta come up with somethin' good eventually! and with that idea in mind i came up with this.Most of the tracks done for my own tunes are done by myself (more coming soon!). When fortunate enough, i was joined by some great friends and stellar musicians who each add their own special flavor. These include Jimmy Fontanez on keys, drums, vocals, drum programming and various other GREAT tracks, MIke Gonzales/Aftertax, and Kristina Johnson who adds her saxophone talents to several tunes. Others will be noted on individual tunes.
Influences: Way too many to even think of, but off the top of my head.... Miles Davis, Freddie Hubbard, Weather Report/Jaco, James Brown, George Clinton/P-Funk, Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, Dave Matthews, The Blues, hummmmm.....
