Episode 7 - P Buck Leaks Hungry Like a Snake

Episode 7 - P Buck Leaks Hungry Like a Snake This time I'm bringing you something that has been a long time coming. The official release of the last BSC album never really came together. Yet I still have a load of tracks just sitting on my hard drive. So in the spirit that brought the BSC together, I am unofficially leaking the full album to you in my own podcast mix. Enjoy!

Episode 6 - Meet Studio T

Episode 6 - Meet Studio T Episode 6 has been long overdue, but worth the wait. This release is a crossroads of Winslow creativity. The mix features 2 tracks originally written by P Buck: the first is called "Concern" and the second "Dem Changes." It is very exciting to bring you these tracks as they both feature a guest Winslow. "Concern" has been extensively remixed by Tim Santos aka Studio T. And "Dem Changes" features my good buddy C Note on the lead guitar riff. Although its shorter than the last few releases, Episode 6 is sure to be a classic.

Episode 5 - Digging through the Archives

Episode 5 - Digging through the Archives This was a fun podcast to put together for me. First I'll give you the breakdown of what you're hearing: 0:00 - Bad Plus Beat 1:07 - Alleys at Dawn 2:35 - Paz is a si zaP 4:41 - African Oyoyo 6:25 - Bad Plus Beat revisited 8:53 - Flying Juice 13:54 - Latin Thought This time around I decided to try to make a mix of tracks that I thought would flow well together. I took some time to browse through my archive of tracks, and I was able to find quite a few beats that had never been used or released in any form. I'll give you a brief review of the tracks. "Bad Plus Beat" is named because it originally was built around a sample of a Bad Plus song. Unfortunately, over time some of the samples I have chosen get lost in the process of moving files around. So what you hear on this track is simply the arrangement of the song without the sample. I enjoyed this track on its own without samples and I thought it was a good intro to set the...

Episode 4 - Sleep and Shittyfaced Dub Style

Episode 4 - Sleep and Shittyfaced Dub Style Its almost 3 AM on Friday morning and I am finding myself at the end of a great remixing session. I was able to start on a new version of "Sleep" tonight and see it all the way through to the end in a few hours. (Ironically, I am foregoing a good night's sleep in the process.) I am enjoying the style that is arising from these remixes. Reason is allowing me to add many effects to sounds I had previously only recorded and processed in Adobe Audition. This version of "Sleep" is more laid back than the original version. Lots of reverb and delay helped make this a very atmospheric track. Thunderstorms cutting loose outside have been a great inspiration for the heavier part of the song. I hope that you will enjoy this version of the tune. You will find it available for download at http://www.reverbnation.com/pbuck To fill out the rest of the podcast, I have also tacked on an instrumental version of the "Shittyfaced par...

Episode 3 - Wind, Shadow, Gin & Sprite, Bump Volume 2008

Episode 3 - Wind, Shadow, Gin & Sprite, Bump Volume 2008 In this podcast I am releasing 2 remixes of Elements: Wind & Shadow. This is a special treat for my podcast followers and reverbnation fans. These are the only 2 places you will find these remixes available. (These tracks are available for download individually at http://www.reverbnation.com/pbuck if you are a fan.) Remixing Wind was a lot of fun. It took a day or so to get things moving, but when I found the new beat it really made things interesting. Many of the original tracks and instruments are still in use for this remix, but I really tweaked the effects and layered on the delay and reverb . I have been inspired by Tim's use of delay with the latest Studio T tracks, and I think you can hear the influence on Wind.
