Tweante, the Netherlands. 31st of May 2011,

A bit of Samba Pagode for you!

I started off with the ukelele sample on instr. 3.
It sounded too midi to my liking, so I decided to record myself playing
my own uke, which I bought and taught myself about a week ago.

I figured the ukelele is the closest thing to a cavaquinho, which I do
not have, and which is actually needed in this kind of music. A
cavaquinho has a more "twangy" sound to it, which is why I also left
the original uke-sample in (besides, it was an effing lot of work, so
I didn't want to throw all that away.)

I'm also pretty happy about the tempo and general "samba feel" of the song.
The point with computer music is that the "human factor" is often left out; it
needs to be sloppy at times, to feel realistic. That's why you see me using the
ED1 and ED2 codes so often.

I have doubted about singing a bit myself, but as it is tracking I thought
I'd have a flute do the lead. :)

The song is inspired by samba pagode masters such as Jorge Arag.o, Zeca Pagodinh
Fundo de Quintal, Dudu Nobre, Exaltasamba, Grupo Revela..o.
