Check out my BeATz

When the boys down in the R & D department listed all the best things that could go in a song, this is what they came up with:

-Cool guitars (disco-y and fuzzy lead with a phased sound.)
-Bass guitar that sounds like an early 80s post-punk band played it.
-Cheesy electro-drums and real drums at the same time.
-Synth bass.
-Cowbell.

So we worked up a concept song to be shown at the trade show, and the results pleased us.

How You Been?

This is a little different from my standard fare, I think. For one, there are a lot more words, and they're not very funny. But I think it sounds all right, and I'm pretty sure this is my best drum track. I've been trying to figure out how to make happenin' dance drums with real drums and drum machine mixed together, and it finally clicked. I'm very pleased.

I also tried to mix it differently. More compressed I guess. So the vocals are down and the bass is up, etc. And I've only included the choicest of notes for the post-guitar solo guitar solo.

Whatcha think?

Lyrics!

Bap.
