Nine New Songs From My Upcoming Self-Titled Project

To all of my fans. Here are the nine songs from my upcoming self titled project.

SCROOGE:   This instrumental has an early Santana influence to it. The song went through plenty of stages when I wrote it in the early 2000's. It was originally six or seven minutes longer. It sounds better as a shorter instrumental.

WHEN YOU'RE DOWN & OUT, PICK YOURSELF UP:  This one is a funk rock instrumental with a slight Robin Trower influence. I was going for his "Bridge of Sighs" era for this one. It is a great one. This one also has a blues thing at the end of the song. This song went through several stages as well.

AUTISM:  This is an instrumental for the loved ones who have people living with autism. I know because I have autism. I was going for a slow rock bluesy kind of groove. Plus I played some Albert King inspired licks on this one. The Mellotron choir comes from my keyboard Nord Electro 3. The same goes for the Mellotron flute too.

ROMANTIC NIGHTS:  This one is a smooth jazz tour de force. It is the kind of instrumental you can slow dance to. Plus, I was thinking about lovers having romantic nights just being together and having fun.

CONSCIOUSNESS: This instrumental is a jam band tour de force with funk rock, reggae, hard rock, alternative rock, everything all roll into one instrumental.

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL: This one has a nice groove. This one is a must hear. I think everyone who loves instrumental music will love it. The music takes the listener to another world. It is very groovalistic.

GOOD OL' COUNTRY PEOPLE: This instrumental is a country rock flavored one. It evokes the spirit of the outlaw country rock of the 1970's. I was going for the influences of Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Jerry Reed, etc. Anyone who loves country rock or outlaw country will love this one.

OBSTRUCTION:   This is another hard rock, jam band, funk rock, classic rock inspired instrumental. I came up with the title because I was thinking about what President Obama was going through in the White House having to deal with the obstruction of the Republican congress. Obstruction can mean a lot of things but you can draw your own conclusions.

S-H-E-R-R-I: This is a dedication instrumental to my sister Sherri Watson-Robinson. It has two layered rhythm guitar tracks playing through a Leslie rotating speaker plug in from my Line 6 interface. Rhythm guitar track one has the Leslie effect at a slower speed while the rhythm guitar track two has the Leslie effect at a faster speed. There are also tasteful Mellotron flute tracks in the song as well. This song closes my self titled project.

I hope that each and every one of you will check out the new music. I appreciate it very much. Keep your head up. Positive vibes, always. Peace.

Love,
Robert Watson
