7. Music Box Waltz (#8715) by James Head (445)
   This is a cute and easy 3/4 waltz in three parts. I wanted it to sound like a wind up music box. The last part is meant for a piano or guitar, but if your bass neck goes to the 23rd fret by all means go for it.

8. Konpa Flavored Bass Line (#8746) by James Head (445)
   This is a bass line inspired by the popular music of the isalnd of Haiti. I think it's a little too busy for an authentic Konpa style, but it still has that Konpa groove.
