Story behind the song
James says he had the song almost entirely finished, except for finding a catchy title/hook phrase. After becoming frustrated in his search, he happened to look out upon the Manhattan skyline and spotted a huge sign atop a large skyscraper that spelled out " M.O.N.Y. " - and he knew he had found his #1 hit's catch phrase.
What is Live Looping? A foot-operated "Looping Station" both records and plays back "looped" recordings of musical instruments and sounds created "on the fly" during live performances (or which can be pre-recorded). Both pre-recorded and "live loops" can then be incorporated directly into a song, either to enhance it or to build up complete song structures for the live artist to perform along with.
