Slightly Better by Department of Pharmacology published on 2021-05-07T05:08:23Z I have to say I absolutely love creating these little Afrobeat jams using a looper pedal - yes I know such pieces are stylistically derivative, but the contrapuntal rhythms of this music really lend themselves to the creation of exceedingly fun loops. As a sidenote, this kind of thing illustrates how useful looper pedals can be as learning tools for understanding the mechanics of music by playing it. I dig this one, you are free to join the digging, if you wish. Oh, the track is "slightly better" because I'd made a couple of other recordings of this groove previously and hadn't quite come up with the right melody parts for it (I do this all in an improvisatory manner). Aside from some errant soloing, I think this version works.....so I probably won't play it again until I can get together with some friends to record it properly....which means I'll have to learn it again then!
