Partner/s in crime req'd for expedition into downtempo/soulful/funky/jazzy/triphop/electropop/Experimental projects.
Looking to create highly varied and original music with fellow sonic explorers.
Influences including but not limited to.... 4hero, ACR, D'Angelo, Dzihan & Kamien, Jazzanova, John Coltrane, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Chakka Khan, Massive Attack, Mies Davis, Portishead, Talking Heads, Thievery Corp, Zero 7, Visit Venus, Goldfrapp, Ian Dury, Pink Floyd, Salsoul Orchestra, Jesus and Mary chain, A.R.Kane, P Funk, Dexter Wansel, Mingus, Scritti Politti etc...
looking to create original, new material and have LOADS of fun in the process.
Not looking to make a quick buck or be pop stars...... Ars gratia artis! Although this could be a really good 'leg up' if you're so minded.
Us?...... VERY Well equipped project studio based South of S-O-T, over 70 years of experience between us, bunch of stuff on the way already.....we're happy with people in 'session' type rolls but would really welcome people who want to contribute original ideas in addition to our own, as well as co writing. This is not set in stone though as we also work as a production team with other artists.
You?...... Male or female, doesn't matter, race and all the other stuff is no issue either, Soulful and or 'interesting' voice, possibly someone looking for some, or more, studio experience.
Decent guitarist and or keyboard player?... Other instruments?
We would LOVE someone along the lines of Terence Trent D'Arby, Chaka Khan, Gregory Porter, Laura Mvula etc, but happy to work with people that just have a great voice with real character.
We DO NOT do rock though, heavy, middle of the road or even indy, that's not our thing and there's more than enough people on here doing those things already.
Probably best suited to those over 30.
Location not a huge issue if you are able to work over the web.
We have a LOADS of ideas on the go already... We'll show you Ours if you show us yours oooeeer!
Pm for details.
PS, If we've already spoken, please don't reapply, thanks!
