I hear little flashes of George Benson in here - EXCELLENT!

Love your guitar playing and that flute! Mix is perfect.

AWESOME!

Downbeat funky groovy. Love the guitar in this. Very cool.

Nice little taste of Mario-sweetness, this.
Loved that growly low flute trill!

Super funky! Love the dynamic push when the guitar slides in at 1:15 or so. The flute tradeoffs are cool, too. That's a cool little band percolating away beneath it all. "A little fun" for sure!

The flute seems just a little too forward for me...but the whole is a very tidy package and the flute is a nicely exotic one.
Guitar - yeah Mario, put that one in the cart.


Cheers

Thanx Ray. I'll work on better mixing when using a flute. Thanx for pointing that out. And thanx for the guitar comment.

Really cooool vibe.

Loving the tone and notes you laid down from your ax and the flute.

Great mix and really no need to further parse things out.
Simply stated it's a fun listen!

Funk on,

Hi, Mario.

Sounds like you're having fun with the flute again.

With the dry, up-front mix, it's got a very 60's sound.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Thanx David. Actually I'm just having fun making music! I never thought about it but yes it does have a 60's sound. Thanx for bringing that to my attention.

Sounds like you're having too much fun! The flute and guitar have the right flavor to put on top of the backing band. Grooving!

Easy listening and relaxing composition. Well-balanced (one could say equilibrious) groove.
Well executed.
