I've been messing with the software again. There's no harp on this yet but I'm sure I'll be able to squeeze it in somewhere. 12 bar blues world fusion. It's only a very short sneak preview. Not for the traditionalist. Comments gratefully received.

Cool I like it. Cmaj I believe. Funky. The subdued leads sound minor. I would loose the chipmunk. Love the art, fits well...BN

Wild. I played it to the boys and they liked it too. But it needs to be fifteen minutes longer, there is barely time to begin the trance. You're not a Loop Guru fan by any chance?

BN and MTG Thanks guys. It's still early stages yet but am hoping to build it up into something so it's all very rough and raw at the moment. I don't know who/what Loop Guru is MTG?

Actually it sounds very much more fully-formed than rough and raw, Loop Guru are a worldbeat band, and this is their kind of territory - infectious groove mash-ups with ethnic instruments. There is some on youtube, but sadly not my personal fav album 'fountains of paradise'. Expand your mind...

tooka - listening to your fusion caused me to dig out some film/ambient music I did a while ago. Definitely off-topic blues-wise. They are mood music behind images rather than songs, so no dancing please. The original sounds are all acoustic, and the processing is digital but with a tape loop ethic.

They go on a bit, but you need time to get all the josticks lit.

Thanks MTG they are a bit wild aren't they. I'm only just dipping my toe in to see what I can do. My set-up is limited so I'm just experimenting. It's fun but I doubt I'll take it very far unless of course I get hooked again. :) Thanks.

Yes, they are indeed wild. Hopefully recreating the authentic feel of sitting in Mile End tube station. That's what you get growing up listening to Brian Eno and Robert Fripp! In your fusion track, is everything a synth sound or are you playing some instruments there? They are very good sounds.
