Tracklist

1 Touché Hombre

Available On

Touché Hombre mixes neo-soul swag, G-funk inspired synths and hip-hop beats inside a jazz blender: think D’Angelo collaborating with Parliament Funkadelic on planet Motown, supervised by Herbie Hancock. This sexy joint is uplifting with feel good undercurrents throughout. It will have listeners pulling the kind of ‘bad stank’ face that only the funk can bring.

Marks composed/produced all elements of the track and performed all the piano, Rhodes and synthesizer parts as well as the synth bass. The track features Snarky Puppy’s Bob Lanzetti on Electric Guitar, Doron Lev on drums (Evil Giraffes on Mars), Andrew Gould on Alto Saxophone (Village Vanguard Orchestra, Ron Carter Big Band), Dave Levy on Trumpet (Norah Jones, Ray Angry), and Sarpay ‘Sharpeye’ Ozçagatay on flute (Arturo Sandoval).
