Brian Culbertson's BCXII Video Blog 5 (first song)

[k0234100]

I just typed "Brian Culbertson" into YouTube the other day out of curiosity, since I've been a fan from the very first album, and I never expected to find a video blog from BC himself. I'm literally giddy listening/watching the making of this album!

When I get the (rare) chance to get into my own studio, it's moments of inspiration like this that are a priceless joy.

And that demo track is sensational (only 4 hours & done?? WOW).

I've got some serious catching up to do!! ;-D

I love the way you play the piano, Brian.. very inspirational. Can you explain what notes your left hand is playing? Are they octaves to the melody of the right? I'm a learner so would appreciate any info or tutorial.

sheldon calls this face-slappin music?

[King31395]

Hahaha, nice Earth, Wind & Fire-type groove :) Nice song, definitely!

Love that 70's-80's soul

The master at work , ever since I listened to "bringing back the funk " your music motivates me to keep the pocket strong in my drumming, much love from Houston Texas -Tony G.

[SeaSharkGull]

Love it.....but I'm kinda disappointed you don't like the idea of the tuba..............! If you're short of tuba players I know a couple.....!

[waltergaleazzi]

puro groove , buenisimo

[proprotools1234]

[Cefshah]

I love your music!! For me, it is just inspirational to watch you do that stuff!! It surely looks like making music makes you happy, and that can be felt in your work. Thanks for sharing. -Cefshah-

Brian can't wait for you to get out on the road to promote this album. I drove 5 hrs to see you at Scullers in Boston last year and it was sooo worth it. There is nothing like Brian Culbertson live!!!

[jazzyat]

[purelight8996]

Were do you do the mixing for your music? Your home studio?

[BrianCulbertsonMusic]

I will be mixing at my studio and you'll see it all happen over the next few months!!

[trktrt]

I love it....  I only wish I had that studio in my house!!!

[leston4life]

Is this guy the same Sheldon Reynolds who played with Earth, Wind and Fire? If so, you've got a real funk veteran with you, Brian.

[BrianCulbertsonMusic]

yep, same guy!!

[RymandTV]

[BDRichter]

I had to listen again. I was actually dancing in my chair....... I love these fast upbeat songs. Thats what keeps me coming back!

[mchristepher]

Hot. Hope it makes it on the CD.

[lmtayl2]

Awesome Brian and Sheldon! Love it now so I can only imagine what the finished song will sound like. My guess is that it will be the first track to go to radio.. ;)
