looking for musicians who can write and perform original parts in a very specific stylistic pocket

PROJECT TITLE:
Electro Funk (6/4 @ 144 BPM) – Live Players Needed (Ayers / TOP / Djent / Santana Fusion)

PROJECT OVERVIEW:
I’m producing a groove-driven Electro Funk track in 6/4 at 144 BPM. This is not EDM—it leans organic, rhythmic, and performance-based with a hybrid analog/electronic feel.

I’m looking for musicians who can write and perform original parts in a very specific stylistic pocket.

INFLU ... ENCE TARGETS (READ CAREFULLY):
- Vibraphone / Marimba: Roy Ayers (Neo-soul phrasing, warm, rhythmic, melodic)
- Horn Section (Tenor Sax + Trumpet): Tower of Power style (tight stabs, syncopation, arranged hits)
- Rhythm Guitar: Hacktivist (percussive, djent-style groove, rhythmic precision over chords)
- Lead Guitar: Carlos Santana (sustain, melodic phrasing, expressive bends)

WHAT I NEED:
- You will compose your own part based on the track and brief
- Provide 3 different takes/variations of your part
- Tight timing is critical (this track locks to groove)
- Parts should complement—not overcrowd—the arrangement

TECHNICAL SPECS:
- Tempo: 144 BPM
- Time Signature: 6/4
- Key/scale + reference track provided upon hire
- Deliver:
- Dry stems (no reverb/delay unless it’s part of the sound design)
- 24-bit WAV preferred
- Clearly labeled takes (Take 1 / Take 2 / Take 3)

STYLE NOTES:
- Think “live musicians inside a machine groove”
- Pocket > flash
- Space and phrasing matter more than density
- Groove should feel intentional in 6/4—not like forced odd time

WHO THIS IS FOR:
- Players comfortable writing in hybrid genres
- Strong sense of rhythm and subdivision
- Familiar with funk, neo-soul, AND modern heavy rhythm concepts

TO APPLY:
Send:
- Relevant samples (matching ONE of the styles above)
- Brief note on how you’d approach this track

This is a collaborative performance-driven project, not just a quick overdub job.
