As the genre of the EP has had a last minute change I've used all my spare time trying to make my self more familiar with the funk/soul genre. To start off i dove deeper into a bands discography I already listen to (Vulfpeck). "One thing you'll idubitably notice early on when listening to this album is that there is less of a funk vibe to it, and more of a soul/r'n'b sound." (Dominik Boehmer 2017). This qoute perfectly describes the tone of the bands sound which helped me a lot when song writing and definitely influenced my decisions when picking chords and melodies. The rhythm guitarisrt of the band "Cory Wong' is a massive inspiration of mine and is one of the reasons why I took an interest in the funk genre. A video from the youtube channel "Reverb" features him discussing his guitar technique on how he uses his right hand to play guitar. He discusses letting his picking hand go limp in order for him to strum faster, he mixes this with the funk muting technique to get a funky sound.
