What a difference a day makes. Woke up with the new sound and title for “What Say You” in my head & was actually pretty much able to get down what I “heard.” With inspiration from Michael Franti’s “positivity” and a sound that’s, hopefully, reminiscent of early Joe Jackson (I could hear it being Blur-Ed as well), I punched out a bass part (starting in A) grooving with that keen metronome sound.
Then I used a wooden box drum from the Timber Drum Co. – a Christmas gift from my wonderful wife to supply some beat.
The vocalizations were pulled from my not-far-from-sleep memory of earlier morning with a few tracks of background added. I’m pretty happy with the snippet/sketch – here it is:

Excellent work…like the harmonies. …. by far your best “mix” to date and def hear the Joe Jackson influence. Nice punchy bass cutting through too.
You are too kind. I put a mic to my Standel amp & let the positive vibes flow.
