This song was originally called The V (the five), This is you straight Soul song, I love the snare on every beats on the chorus, giving it that Motown feeling to it. [LISTEN TO OUTSIDE ON DSOUND](https://dsound.audio/#/@edprivat/outside-by-ed-privat) This song was featured in my first album, it's actually the only track of the album that was performed live, and by this I mean that all the musicians and instruments were gathered in the same room and jamming. When you work on a album and you have a very precise idea in mind, it's normally preferable to record the instruments one by one, on a sequencer, using a click. But I really needed the drums and the band to have an organic feeling to it, almost like a someone's breathing, so I wanted the tempo to fluctuate slightly to give that live feeling to it. **We decided with Dylan Ellis at the time, that the best way to do so is to play it live** If I remember correctly, it was a local gospel band that are playing on the song, the bassist being Patrick, a guy from Congo DRC that I met few years back came with his "friends from church". Patrick was speaking french, which made him my instant friend at the time :) . I think it helped with communicating what I wanted for the song too. All the musicians were killers, with amazing tempo and they jammed with me like their life depended on it that day :) It was one of the most accelerating recording session , I never do well when the red light is on, but the energy in the room was so high that day, I think we got what we wanted after the first take which is very rare.

It's a song about a whole generation getting blackout drunk in bars and clubs. Like you all did this week end ! hahaha My favorite lyric in the song is : "Take the blue pill please, and my soul gonna get cured" I hope this song will give you the Modjo for Monday! enjoy @edprivat #edprivat #original #zombie #blackout #Motown [LISTEN TO OUTSIDE ON DSOUND](https://dsound.audio/#/@edprivat/outside-by-ed-privat)
