Interesting fact... the zombie sound was actually one of the vocal tracks from Funk Flex himself, and I messed around with it in the sample editor and the pitch shifter. I made the mandolin sound by using time stretch and putting a loop point in one the the samples.

Another truly unique piece of music, I think you`ve captured the spirit of both Venice, with the Italian sounding instrument (don`t know what they`re called!) and also the slow, almost shambling sound of an undead creature.

Now I`ve got the bizarre image of a zombie rowing down the canals of Venice in his/her gondola...and that`s a very original picture to paint in somebody`s mind! Brilliant!

That's exactly what we were going for! I can't remember exactly what sound we used ( I think it might    have been a koto), but I remembr using a loop point in the sample editor. That's how we got the mandolin sound.Also  I highlighted the main riff and used the pitch shifter, created 4 dots (can't remember what the term is right now), set it at 1/4 of a key  and 1/8 seconds and toggled the looping, and made the wave form into the letter M. I think I may end up using a digital camera to take a picture of some things, as it is next to impossible to describe in text! We always do some creative things just by trying to make shapes, regardless of how it sounds.
