A way to dig a groove in such a heart full of rhythm.

I just heard the Ramen #3 version of this and it totally blew me away! Furthermore, I sickenly realized that I have posted a piece by the same name, a long time after you posted this one. I apologize for this and have changed the name of my posting (but a similar story to yours... first recording in a new house!!) Strong work team. I'm a big fan!

Comments aren't working on this for me. :( Trying again - this is awesome.

this is really cool! As a beginning music-maker I am really impressed by how you kept that bass line groove fresh and interesting for the full 12 minutes. It was really great all the way through! The clapping, snapping, stomping rhythm breakdown at around 3 or 4 minutes was really cool, too :)

Love the way this song builds in the beginning. How long did it take to build that rhythmic section in the middle? I wouldn't be done with it yet. This is the kind of song that one can get lost in. Well done. ER

Excellent idea to incorporate river dancers! Percussion at it's finest - the dance becoming the song.

I like this. Very well produced saxophone. Graudually developing and altering hook.

better be working on that EP!!! ;-)

Guest said

Hypnotic.

I absolutely love this, especially the wonderful interlude of clapping and tapping. 12 minutes is nothing, it speeds by too quickly!

were you guys tap dancing in the studio or what? It's so tightly woven into the continuous bass and rhythm tracks. And then it follows with all the layered strings... yeah, this one for sure. ;)

Guest said

I need this after the shock of "Little Star"

Guest said

Lead me to a darkened room, this is absolutely wonderful.

you guys amaze me with your RPM. I'm seriously blown away by this entire album. Each track stands out on its own so well... tapping into different emotions... flirting with different styles... it's an amazing piece and it makes me proud to be a part of alonetone. cheers to Kirk and Wendy... I raise my glass high!

that was me, who said that. I thought I was logged in ^_^ really, though, I hear a lot of highly personally compatible grooves in this track.

Extremely tasteful layers on top of the perfect groove. Love it!

love the bass... love the claps, taps...wow.. I am really impressed with this album so far. this stuff inspires! so fluid... and not the least bit banal for a 12 minute track... it's constantly moving. you guys pulled it off.. the violins at 05:30 are so awesome. I hear a bit of dissonance in there too. Shit, I might as well be reviewing your album with these lengthy comment chapters. good stuff... You guys really made something special.

Oh Yeah- I'm loving this. I'm a sucker for a great bass line anyway. Wonderful groove

Guest said

You can't go wrong with clapping and stomping... that's a fact!
