There's a lot of jams I did early after I joined the loops which were fantastic, many featuring the legends that are AlexJ, Tof, Marceys and SlonMusic. But they were always let down by one thing: my dreadful, biscuit tin drum sound. It was the reason I revisited one of my favourite all-time jams, Mid Tern.

The drums were well-recorded but I was just utterly rubbish at mixing them. Thanks to the Loops, I'm better at it now than I ...

Good job Martin,
You've found space in between the instruments which has added some depth:)
Good band too! +1
GlezBass
Perfect and difficult as the last! +1
Tofzegrit
Cool Martin! The sound is very good!
That is one of my favorite background (a bit in detune mode... :))
Nice to share your enthusiasm in your "do it again" +1
mpointon
mpointon Thanks Tof. There's a fair few from the early days which are just fantastic but my drums sound rubbish and I want to fix them and do the tunes justice! +1
rp3drums
cool jam buddy, reminds me of Toto, and the ever great Jeff Porcaro... +1
mpointon
mpointon Thanks, rp3. Jeff is a big hero of mine. I have no idea how long I've spent trying to perfect the 'Roseanna' beat over the years. One of the finest drummers on the planet before his untimely demise. +1
rp3drums
rp3drums agreed...he had a way of making difficult stuff sound easy... +1
mpointon
mpointon ... and with a groove to utterly die for. Up there with Gadd and co. for his ability to make everything feel so right and so good. +0

EXCELLENT !!! +1
Marceys
Very cool work Martin! This way the track is a very cool balance! You brought the instruments more close to each other! +1
mpointon
mpointon Thanks, Marc. It was tough to mix as I wanted Alex's superb playing to be clear but it clashed with your keys so a lot of level fiddling was needed.

Listening back, there's a bit of distortion on the bass... Damn. +1
