SEGA SWING

This EP is dedicated to my recent obsession with the late 80s/early 90s New Jack Swing genre, and with the light-bulb-going-off realization that many of the early Sega Genesis/Mega Drive games were heavily influenced by the same as well as the pop, dance, and funk sounds of the period. In a burst of inspiration I wrote this album in about a week, using game rips and drum samples from the period to intertwine what composers like Nakamura were trying to emulate within the confines of the system, which I've dubbed "Sega Swing".

Anyway, enough of that nonsense.

Tracklist:

1. I'm Here With You
2. The Running
3. LOUNGE
4. The Endless Loop
5. Mama Said...
6. I Can't Take (This Feeling)
7. Dance Fight! (bonus)
8. LOUNGE (bonus live play mix)

I like the tempo of it, and props to anyone you can find that can keep up with it or work around it and still make it sound good.

it's slower than it was before, this tempo would be fine


Yeah, I slowed it down several bpm's. Thanks for the tips Saskrotch and O2star smile

Lol wow, you are right. I haven't heard that song in ages and had to listen again just now, but it does sound a LOT like it.

Ahoy all! I'm looking for a rapper for an upcoming release of mine. It's an entirely Genesis/Mega Drive-ripped album with some real drum samples blended in. You would be doing your thing on one particular old school hip-hop track of mine.

Check out a rough here -
