This is a hard ask. I’m honestly not sure it’s possible.

When you hear it…
Yo what??? I did not know that was a sample!
Using a Rush song feels like cheating.
For real though, great post. What a banger.
I love this idea for a weekly post - could be “No Words Wednesday”
I’d be remiss not to mention Classical Gas
“Now play Classical Gas!”
I haven’t heard that song in a long time. I forgot how superb it is. I would participate in no words Wednesday!

One of my favorite songs period.
Akimbo
sweet buttered fuck that’s good.
Supa funky!
Have a look at lettuce too.
Wow. Both of those are awesome! I did not know ukuleles could sound like that. Thank you so much for introducing me to this.
Scale the Summit - The Levitated
I also dearly adore Whales from the same album. Its probably the better song of the two, but there’s something about the character of the sound in the Levitated that just carries me away.
I’m also a big fan of Marcin and Ichika Nito, so how about a track with both of them? “I don’t Write About Girls”
Ooo nice. I really like The Levitated.
That bass player is absolutely incredible. Respect.
Joe Dart, an absolute master. Check this one out. https://youtu.be/yKg_3kyIhHc?si=ESL6SZ4BL6jeuXhh
That was great! Thanks!

The Spanish guitar style and woodwinds (or is it electric?) combine for something.
You should check out Calibro 35’s back catalog. There’s some super amazing stuff they’ve done. Here’s a fun one. https://youtu.be/_lWwDKnF1wE
Not my cup of tea, but I have to admit it’s an expertly crafted beverage.
