The story according to Budha


JPT was probably the 4th track that we had come up with while composing songs for our album JPT. Anand was the genius who came up with the structure and the basic guitar pattern of the song but he was such a genius that he couldn’t complete it and then in came ROB and BG to help the poor Mr. A to the D out.

The original track consisted of some verses and chorus with a structured chord pattern and a super sci fi/funktastic sounding guitar lead sorta thing that plays through out the whole song. I would love to lie to everyone and say I made that guitar riff but unfortunately Mr. A (Anand) had beaten me by a millisecond in composing this wonderful guitar lead pattern *damn that guy*. Obviously me and ROB were stunned since this was the first time we had seen Anand create something close to good however we were not surprised by the fact that he couldn’t complete it.

The lyrics for JPT were pretty much all ready when the song was composed, with the exceptions of ROB’s rhyme and my one line that I sing throughout the whole song. With the lyrics all ready we had recorded a very rough version of JPT with basically a drum pattern, 2 different guitar patterns and a simple bass line. Although it sounds easy, one should not be fooled by my simple wordings and my laid back attitude in this report. It was difficult as F@#% ! Reason being that this was a first and a new experience for all of us.

After all the basics were laid down and we had the rough demo tracked out we were all very satisfied…for like 20 minutes. Then we realized that there was a lot more work that needed to be done so therefore I took the liberty of laying out a better drum pattern, bass line and all the additional sounds that you hear in the final version of JPT. Back in LA in my 3 million dollar mansion I set out to produce an amazing track. With a month’s work of tweaking sounds left and right, adding new piano lines and extra instruments here and there, JPT was on the verge of completion. More than 2 months of solid hard work on the track, since the day we had composed it we were almost done with JPT. We constantly worked together giving positive feedbacks back and forth and sometimes with a lot of F bombs thrown in here and there but the outcome was very satisfying.

Disregarding all the sarcasm, I hope everyone has enjoyed JPT (the single) and continues to listen to it and understand it and does not get thrown off track by the title. Just because we named it JPT does not mean we were eating momos in the recording studio and playing a game of 21 while we were laying down our vocals. We take every part of what we do seriously so I hope everyone takes us and our music seriously too.
Peace!Bg

ps. I do have a 3 million dollar mansion in LA.
pps. Everybody’s feelings got hurt during the production of JPT and we all cried like babies and after all the crying we all downed a carton of Dairy Farm milk each.
