Chameleon Jam

[stratmonkee]

Recently discovered the album "Headhunters" by Herbie Hancock. Inspired me to record a jam LOOSELY based around the totally awesome groove from "Chameleon" which leads off this great album. All synths done with my strat thru a ehx micro synth , ehx string 9 , and various filters in my pod go. Bass was my Squire classic 70s vibe thru pod with a filter effect. Drums are betamonkee funk loops. Its pretty sloppy, but was a lot of fun. The original by Herbie Hancock was a earworm for me for about a week almost had to try and record something to get it out .

I can't give a detail review, but on the speakers I have, and I listen a lot on these speakers, it seems a little on the bright side. It is very clean, nothing harsh I cans hear, but seems a little darker would serve it well. other than that, good tune.

I am driving towards more synth focused music, that is what compelled me to listen. Bass sounding pretty funky (good), what was the guitar setup? It cut through real easy.

Even sloppy funk sounds good!

Thanks , used my 2005 american standard strat (S,S,H) into a pod go, the microsynth, string 9 pedals where in the loop of the pod, Amd models I used where a Fender deluxe , and a Roland jazz chorus. Bass also thru pod go, ampeg bass amp model , and a filter from the pod go , forgot which one.
