Hi, Since I have this template all set up like Tower of Power... thought I'd do a cue for Access Hollywood (on of my clients) with a Tower vibe.. hope you like it.
Thanks for the kind words. TOP is definitely the Gold Standard when it comes to Funk, Horn sections and tightness. So even to attempt an homage solo, and do it with VIs is almost blasphemy. So kudos from a Tpt player/TOP cover band member is nice.
As to my methods. I use a venerable old DX7 with its wonderfully elegant built in BC. I create the lead lines with a harmony and rhythm section feel in mind. Then voice them in the TOP style and finish off with TOP rhythm section elements like congas, funky guitar and organ licks in between the horn lines. If only I could sing like Lenny White!
