Al,
I really like this tune. It's full of energy. Like Colin said, a great wakeup.

I've listened a couple of times now, different days - even different states! Right off the bat I'm hearing Santana but...no searing guitar licks. 8(

In general the production sounds very MIDI to me. It needs more live action. First off the aforementioned guitar. I always do the percussion toys live. It adds some real wood/metal whatever and those tiny dynamic/timing variations and room sound (you've heard my kitchen) that bring a track to life. Besides it's a lot of fun to play a simple clave along with a finished track.

Otherwise - Ariba!
