Alright - the first one out of the gate. Mixed this through Sennheiser 280 series headphones. I tried to avoid all plug-ins and FX as much as possible (drums got processed). Thi is a mix test for me. @nancyrost was kind enough to open this track with an FM radio DJ personae. Thanks bunches.
And thank you in advance for taking the time to listen to the song.
Enjoy the jelly!
Sub-atomic blasting the sound coming out your speakers. This is the Jelly Factory.
They call me the Jellyman
Cos I got the jams 2 move your feet
Check out my melodies and harmonies
Do U agree
I got the grooves U want
The funk U need - the boogie beat
Come on and take a trip through the groove eclipse
Vibe with me
1-2-3-4 Pass the jelly!
We're gettin' jellyfied!
They call me the Jellyman
Cos I'm jellyfied
I got the treats
Top-shelf and bonafide
2 rock the clubs and the streets
Don't matter who U R
Where U're from
Or how U speak
Here at the factory we R the stars
We're so unique
1-2-3-4 Pass the jelly!
We're gettin' jellyfied!
I rock the party right
'til there ain't no party left
Mad funk that's outta site
Gonna leave U out of breath
It's all about the gettin' down
So everybody just get on up
Turn on my party light
Get wild and shake your butt
Jellyman! Jellyman!
Jellyman! Jellyman!
*Potato chip break*
2022 The Jelly Facctory
@leepat Mar 2022
this is just universal goodness - from the self-referential but nevertheless inspired lyrics to the infectious groove and beyond.
ma jelly be shakin!
@sarahk Mar 2022
Where have you been my whole (FAWM)life? This song is so tasty. Glad I found you, and absolutely shaking my butt. Such a great groove!
@fearlessflight2014 Mar 2022
I’m trying to be keto but your jelly is just too good. Am dancing! Try and stop me!!
@ambroise Mar 2022
"Cool organ" is not something I say often. Yet that organ is hot !
@gm7 Feb 2022
All together now... 1-2-3-4 'Pass the Jelly'. Just a killer line.
Bruno Mars check your 6 the jelly man is on the way!
@mikeb Feb 2022
Dance party madness!
@elainedimasi Feb 2022
1-2-3-4 I-dig-this-bridge!
Edit: ok "shake your butt <honk> " is genius
@cleanshoes Feb 2022
Woo! The Jellyman is HERE! So fun and funky.
@kadmad202 Feb 2022
Lots of fun - great funky beat. Love it!
@guatecoop Feb 2022
Yes yes yes.....It has so many elements that I just love. Those horns are working hard, but so smooth. Hahaha, those voice additions are so perfect. The Prince-esque guitar!!! goodness. So cool and must have been so much fun to do. The mix sounds good. A little light on the low end, but good. Well done!
@robynmackenzie Feb 2022
Hell. Yes. So much zany fun here, from the funky guitars and brass to those fun "heys" that punctuate throughout. Killer collab!
@bethkille Feb 2022
Yeah!!! Great collab!!!! Love this.
@robs Feb 2022
Funky! :-) :-)
@tunecat Feb 2022
Oh glad I came here. I think I missed listening to some of your brilliantly funky tracks last year. Fab as always. I love music like this. The fast riff is really excellent. I’m a fan. Full on.
@tamsnumber4 Feb 2022
YES, love this and love Nancy's radio announcement. This is settingthe perfect jelly mood!
@sherrycanary Feb 2022
I am officially jellyfied!!
What total fun and funk and so groovy
I'll be ready to party like that soon. Right now I could probably only do the potato chip break :)
@writeandwrong Feb 2022
Oooh, some high-time fun jelly funk! There you are!! WHooooo! I'm feelin' it!! Hahaha the potato chip break at the end!!! LOLOL This is awesome all around from beginning to end! 200%. What a way to open the FAWM gates this year and wished I hadn't taken so long to get over here!!! Kudos!!
@odilongreen Feb 2022
Such a good time! Funky and fun and energetic and catchy as all get out. That "shake your butt" {tiny honk} made me laugh out loud! I want to go to the club where this is playing all the time!
@faceofeinstein Feb 2022
I didn't read the other comments, so my bad if I'm repeating things but this is funky AF. I mean, how has Bruno Mars not already covered this? Really well done and super fun to listen to. Cheers.
@zecoop Feb 2022
A killer groove, head bobbing, butt moving, thrill making JAM session!! Top to bottom, this is the real deal and we all look forward to the Jelly. Bringing it!!!!! Awesome song and just So. Much. Fun. :)
@dasbinky Feb 2022
This is everything I look for in a CTS tune. It's just lovely. It knows exactly what it wants to be and it inhabits that space with verse and gusto. If I knew how to do such a thing, I would pass your resume along to The Commodores, who Wikipedia tells me are still touring. But more the 1970s Commodores, who don't really exist anymore. But when the time machine comes... you're in.
In short, gimme some jelly, sir. And some damn potato chips. Mmmm...
@splittybooms Feb 2022
The honk after "shake your butt" did it for me.
LOL seriously though - how does one become a Jellyman? Do you have to born as one, or is it something that one can learn from elder Jellymen and develop from a Jellychild into a Jelly Master?
This has the vibe of 'Gonna Have A Funky Good Time' - just that fun funk funkiness that one can't help but move around to (even if you got a bad headache like me).
The shouts from Nancy add to the fun and party vibe.
That chorus paired with the sax is such old school funk goodness; its a legit joy to hear it being done here in 2022. Its spot on.
Good grief, funk guitar, organ and horns during 1:25 -1:40 is such sweet stuff to the ears. Perfect grooves.
All the funky riffage all over the place.
All that and a bag of chips...that you apparently ate up at the end.
@richaaaay Feb 2022
I know I commented on this earlier but I must’ve missed hitting that big red button bar. This song is pure jelly, just off the charts from start to finish. I love the little toot of the horn at just the perfect moment. The potato chip break at the end has me wanting to crash your party. I love potato chips. Jelly and chips? My two favorite things!!! There is a serious party happening in that song. Fantastic collaboration!
@dukemeyer Feb 2022
Great start! Love the chorus - the rhythmic vocals under the funky brass line - and the way both of you sing. And the organ hooks! And the crisps ... yeah. Amazing collab!
@djtjb Feb 2022
When the organ kicked in I got legit chills. Funk chills, never would've believed it, but if anyone can give me the chills from the funk it's the jellyman. Loved this one, and now I gotta go get some chips lol.
@srcoops Feb 2022
Jellyman. I like it!
@petemurphy Feb 2022
Wowowow !!
This is proper badass. Hot funky-delic vibes for days.
Absolutely love it.
Congrats on such a great collab.
@nobodyofficial Feb 2022
I love the lyrics and the sax!
@bithprod Feb 2022
Damn, that's funky! Amazing production, readio-ready stuff. The lyrics are.... I don't know what the heck they are. lol. (The chewing at the end made my misophonia go haywire, though. *shudder*)
@deena Feb 2022
Oh, the joy of The Jelly!
@elesimo Feb 2022
Yeaaaah! This had me dancing and smiling! Amazing song, how are people so good at things?!?
And I want @nancyrost announcing all my songs now!
@slusk Feb 2022
Nobody cares for the lyrics but the song was great. It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing but fortunately it had plenty. You have my blessing. :)
@johncrossman Feb 2022
I didn't know I needed it until I got it. Now I need more. Ah-ah-ah-ah, yes! I came, I shook it, I appreciate.
@burrsettles Feb 2022
So glad to see the jelly factory is open!
@nadine Feb 2022
Now I know why you're called The Jelly Factory. The beats are so wobbly like jelly. This is great funk, man! Legendary.
@sw1n3flu Feb 2022
I'm jellyfied!
What a classy track this is. Got the whole of fawm grooving to this. Awesome.
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
Delightful!!! So glad the jelly factory is open and oozing such delightful energy! Wonderful!!!! Makes me smile!
@fonte Feb 2022
Mmmmmpppfff. Uh huh. Yeah.
Snap.
Move.
On the one.
@standup Feb 2022
Oh yeah, the jelly factory is pumping out some grooves. Nice job, y'all. Nancy, those are some killer interjections.
And chips. FAWM needs more chip breaks.
@guitarpatz83 Feb 2022
2022 was in some need of a little jellification and I am not disappointed!
The FAWM Prince delivers again. I’m now expecting a snack solo in every track, don’t let your loyal fan bass down!
Great grooves, fun lyrics, just a good time all round. The I, I, I section before the “rock the party right” verse was my favourite bit. Keep em coming Jellyman
@andrea Feb 2022
I actually danced to this in my chair. The most fun I've had all day! Loved the vocal shout out. This is pure delicious jelly. Awesome song and collab!
@spikedirection Feb 2022
Nancy is an excellent addition to this, like that DJ sending messages over the air waves to 'those mean boppers The Warriors!',
This is funky good fun and I absolutely love it. I'd love to play this on the FAWM section of my show on XRP Radio in Thursday of I have your permission?
@musicsongwriter Feb 2022
Fantastic funky jelly! Love your collaboration. The positive, happy vibes, catchy tunes, awesomeness in every way. Love your voices, playing, fun feel. Everything works a treat. Very expressive and impressive. And you totally put me in a mood for crisps in the end.
@jorh Feb 2022
Absolute unbridled jelly joy! The get wild and shake your butt like was a particular highlight, but as if we weren’t already all doing that. Loved the backing vocal shout outs too.
@coolparadiso Feb 2022
thx @kenmattsson i didnt see this one! Funky guys, top class song this!
Yup i know where i was when i heard the inspired potato chip break @davidtaro what a banger this is! just all round class
@davidtaro Feb 2022
First up, let’s talk about the potato chip break. That’s an iconic moment, right there. Years from now, people will be talking about where they were when they first heard the potato chip break. I’m not even joking. The rest of the song I can take or leave—— nah, not really, it’s just filthy good, you’re such a superstar. Can’t believe you did all that with no FX/plugins. I can’t even begin to imagine how you do that. 2022 looks like a good vintage for Jelly.
@kenmattsson Feb 2022
OMG, I had no idea about the Jelly Party and I am 100% invested. I obviously need to as the DJ at my next virtual gathering. I laughed, I cried, I danced, I crunched. It was a whole body experience!
@markg Feb 2022
So good to hear you again!
The mix sounds great and the funk is turned up high.
The potato chip break is an unexpected bonus.
@stephenwordsmith Feb 2022
I am totes jelly of the jelly you're totin'.
@jeustan Feb 2022
I dare anyone to hear this and not boogie. This jelly could raise the dead.
I’m in love with the horns. So cool. Ungh!
@marthie Feb 2022
Such a fresh approach. Great vibe. Love it!
@popmythology Feb 2022
"1, 2, 3, 4, pass the jelly, we'll get jellyfied!" This is SO goooood!!! Totally made me want to get up and dance. And I LOVED all the touches like having @nancyrost do that opening and then closing with the bag crumpling and the potato chip eating which, btw, totally gave me the ear tingles like some good ASMR. Yes, indeedy, folks, the Jellyshop is open!!
@phylo Feb 2022
Oh, Yes! This is all kinds of Jellyfied fun. What a great way to start the season. Props to your DJ @nancyrost - super cool!
@dzdandcunfsd Feb 2022
Like @dragondreams my neighbors are getting an earful of this and they're about a 1/4mile away. Sounds amazing! Was feeling a little crappy this "morning", who knew the jelly was a cure for a few too many drinks last night as well! ...but now I'm hungry lol.
@unkept Feb 2022
What an awesome and funky song! You really managed the feel musically and lyrically, all together really fun and great. Nice job both of you!
@dragondreams Feb 2022
It's been too long!
Even the neighbours are listening to this one, whether they like it or not!
Have I told you two how much I love you? xxx
@thelowestbitter Feb 2022
This is great, so funky, love those horns in the chorus especially. Those rhodesy keys in the "I rock the party" section are ace. I am definitely getting jellified
@acousticmaddie Feb 2022
YEAH babe thats funky. GREAT production
@swampjaw Feb 2022
Classic vibe -- excellent stuff, and the potato chip break.. yeah, that was unexpected. Great hype vocals from Nancy.
I will not attempt to adjust my radio, there is nothing wrong. Top of the jelly milkyway.
@circle Feb 2022
jello? (like hello?) this is funky as f. boogie city. everything sounds perfectly groovy and big and punchy. love that "hey!" sample scattered throughout
@mikeskliar Feb 2022
its a mission statement, its a party, its a groove, its a feeling, its a state of mind, its a floorwax and a dessert topping! Love this, everything comes together.. and............. 'potato chip break' lol!
long may you groove!
@nahlej381 Feb 2022
O ya. That’s the stuff right there. Dude you are a legend
@sbs2018 Feb 2022
Oh yeah! I’m jellified! Party on!
