Down In The Jungle

Down In The Jungle – Matthews & Hoeve – Recording by Moonpub Music – let me know
Get Adobe Flash player

I used this recording to test new DAW (Digital Audio System) Cubase 5. It will take months to really know what the software can do but it’s great fun. Yes, I used some pitch correction also.

It’s a bit of a strange tune, and maybe one day I might decide redoing it. Actually I wanted a soft sound and mysterious atmosphere. But somehow it developed into a 5 minute rock tune. What happened? Can’t tell – was too busy recording…

I still have to ask Shirley – who came with lyric – what exactly she means with lyric. But perhaps item at her songwriter101 forum will explain…

Song by Matthews & Hoeve

STYLE: Rock, some Latin



Wake up honey
I got these twinkels in my eyes
I’m gonna hold on real tight
Wave bye bye
I’m going where sunsets tames
these feelings inside

Feel the rebel baby
This is the freedom we need
Let’s get naked you and me

Down in the Jungle
Where my spirit can run free
Down in the Jungle
Come take this ride with me

Breath Breath Breath…
Breath Breath Breath…

Down in the Jungle
Where my spirit can run free
Down in the Jungle
Come take this ride with me

Sometimes I question
While I’m busy counting stars
Will we ever touch the skies?
Sometimes I question
Where the perfect lovers are
Can we ever reach that high?

Candy Store Is Closing

Another bigband/funky tune to follow up on Getting Tight With Loose Women. These two titles together with some others will probably end up on an online album with 12 tracks bit bluesy/jazzy/funky. Working on it…

Getting Tight With Loose Women

Nice funky and bluesy tune that could fit any blues artist – or even R&B and country performer. As a matter of fact the song started off as a sort of Hank Williams country blues tune but then developed into this BB King influenced recording. Can also be ZZ Top rock…

Sax-a-go-go

Sax-a-go-go – Moonpub Music, the Netherlands 2006

Just fooling around with some samples, editing and new software. But recording has enough own stuff and cleared samples to call it my own. So Sax-a-go-go it is.

Style: whatever
