Very nice! I love African music. I've always been drawn to their percussion in particular but as I listened more and more I became interested in their chants and whatnot. How did you record this?

mxl 990 and my voice.

my headphones weren't zooped up (they use batteries)

so i just played back through the speakers. so there's probably quality killed with the bleed.

i just did slight eq'ing and compression.

Sounds great to me. I might add some 'verb to open up the soundstage and make it feel slightly more authentic. But that's just me. Overall, I really dig it.

Well done!!!! The bleed gives it a mild phasing thing, but it doesn't diminish the charm at all... Really cool!!!!!
