Story Behind The Song

I worked on this track for a publisher who was looking songs that sounded like early 70's Zamrock music playing from a well-worn vinyl LP. Zamrock is a genre that was popular in Zambia in the early 70s that blended influences of hard rock, psychedelic music, funk, and African rhythms. I spent some time working on this track to capture some of the elements into to a piece that sounded cohesive (fuzzed out guitar, wah guitar, congas, organ, etc.) I even had to add some treatment to make the recording sound less hi-fi to fit the era, including static from the old LP. This song has been licensed exclusively to Epitome Music.
