Here's an island-style take on an island-style romance. Everything but the vocals is BIAB. I imposed a few tweaks plus eq and reverb from Reaper. I hope you enjoy it.

Hello, 'Buttrey'...

If I had only one limb attached to my body, it would be jumping, pulsing, squirming, thumping or whatever to the infectious 'soca' rhythm you introduced me to by chosing the _ARIMA.STY Real Style. The steel drum solo was a ringing cascade of sparkling and tuneful percussive melodization. Your harmless lyrics were a delight to listen to! The story they told was made even more charming by your relaxed and upbeat singing. I could imagine you dancing while you recorded the track. This is a refreshing post that oughta brighten up the User's Forum!

Wow, quite a story you told in three minutes. Good on you for using these RTs, I've tried and never came up with much. Good job!
