I’ve been listening to the Beach Boys album, “Love You,” which has a bunch of classic sounding Beach Boys melodies but with a ton of Moog and other synths as the primary instruments. I’ve recreated the track “I’ll Bet He’s Nice.” Check out the original:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfC2iovCzu4

This was a Christmas R&B song I never got around to writing this past season. It’s me messing around with Reason and my New MicroKORG XL.

I decided to splice up this clip to give a taste of what my chart “November” sounds like on Lab 2009. Previously I only had the version from my Graduate Recital up. Buy the album if you please!
