***PROJECT MIX***

This particular tune on the DKC3 album was originally going to be a massive rap collab headed up by Diggi Dis and other OCR artists, but that whole deal kinda fell through toward the end of the project. So, I simply grabbed it, got some great inspiration in the form of an older tune of mine known as Chain Reaction (found at http://flexstyle.bandcamp.com/track/chain-reaction), and voila! Bouncy, happy fun! I sampled the harmonica from the original (all 1.5 seconds of it), since it was kinda what defined the song, hope that's kosher. And yes, I did the beatboxing m'self. Enjoy!

Pretty cool sound here, and some creative ideas that end up sounding polished and well executed. The ending was a little weak, but overall this had some great beats, varied instrumentation, and stayed true to the source while presenting something new and exciting. Good stuff. :-)

I think I can feel comfortable enough closing this one out. I'm really satisfied with the killer stadium-rock sound you've got going on, it's very reverb-heavy but still retains a lot of punch. Great use of sampling, both from the original and your custom beatboxing 8) I dig this so hard.

YES
