This is my twenty-fifth entry in The Producers Corner "sample challenge", where everyone is given the same source music from which to sample, and the results are diverse and entertaining. The source this week was the 1977 album "Tranquility" by Dutch Treat, a mélange of smooth jazz fusion disco funk. I wasn't immediately motivated by anything I heard, but I like to get an instrumental in every week if I can, so come Friday I threw this together last-minute. I latched onto a kind of harpsichord phrase, re-timed it to 4/4 time, and built on that with about twelve other loops and snippets from elsewhere on the album. I added my own bassline, drum programming, and a couple of vocal samples; it probably could have used some scratching but I ran out of time and energy. I hope you enjoy the result, and please everyone stay safe and healthy out there!!!
