thanks.

Im playing the first song (top left in the music page of your site), nice voice and super horn section.

where are you based? and what do you play Pete?

SF and keyboard, look through the photos on the site….

[gbougard]

you're right, I rushed to ask questions before going thru the website.

gbougard, you should PM Pete about getting Native Elements to collab with Sly and Robbie over the Riddim that Haraki-San chose. Now that would be an IH collab for the ages!

Epic idea

Epic idea

Thanks, I try. I know a majority of the guys in the band and am pretty sure it would blow their minds to have the opportunity. That and Native Elements are the best Reggae band in the Bay Area by far.

This morning, I thought of something in that vein, but gave up on the idea because I did not feel it would be right for a group (by essence a tight formation with a history together) to let go their riddim section to "make room" for S&R. Kinda disrespectful if you see what I mean.

Another idea would be to create a Iron Heart compilation. I think there is a couple of other musicians / artists in this forum, and we could put together an EP-worth of tracks in honor of IH.

I do. Maybe Native's vocalist could sing on the track. Just a thought. Anyhow, this is obviously your area of expertise. Just trying to contribute as I have no other way to do so here. Cheers

New development(s): Robbie and I were skyping and I mentioned the ideas floating around. His suggestions:

1. dont touch the first riddim, made for, and chosen by, Haraki,
2. pick another riddim for singers / musicians
3. get Giles to ask Eric Clapton to do a guitar part on a 3rd riddim

I'll post riddim for 2 and 3 on soundcloud later

Giles you are a lucky bastard

Two of the rudest rude bwai's to ever live.

I could go on for days about these guys. They are some of my favorite musicians.

Gbougard, Sly& Robbie and me are taking about doing a Sly and Robbie limited edition 634S.  What do you guys think?

[FOXY]

Touched by the hands of gods!
I would order one.

what's the tweak?

Bouncing these 3 base designs at the moment.  Without doubt the taxi will stamp most effectively…
