Welcome to MacJams my friend. Well crafted composition. This is
definitely some good Downtempo. You should consider changing the
genre. Looking forward to more stuff from you...

Thanks. Glad you liked it. I always have this trouble with genres - it's sort of
jazzy, sort of funky, sort of electronica. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Panning has my head spinning, nice mellow Rhodes waves, deep bass,
funk kicks in with the wah, good beat, crisp production - espeically on
the percussion - very good stereo separation. Very enjoyable _ I look
forward to hearing more. And welcome to MacJams.
BTW - I put in a very long response to your question about my Miles track
- the short answer is that the main effects on the lead trumpet track are
wah and flange. I had been watching a video of Miles from 1970 around
the time I created the experiment and I thought, yeah, let's see if I can get
some of that vibe.

Thanks. Appreciate your comments.
On Miles, have you heard the new Miles box set - The Cellar Door Sessions from
1970. There's some pretty powerful, treated trumpet on there - maybe he uses a
ring modulator as well. If you like that kind of thing, then you could also try Don
Ellis who also used heavily treated trumpet back in the day.
Best Wishes

Yes - I do have the Cellar Door sessions set. The performances are very
intriguing. I don't have any Don Ellis as a bandleader - thanks for the
recommendation. I guess I would be most familiar with his work on the
soundtrack to the French Connection.

I like it fast and noisy.

Hi,
As far as Don Ellis is concerned, I'd definitely go for Electric Bath and Live at
Monterey. Don't know whether you know of a British electronica/nu jazz artist
called Nostalgia 77 ( worth checking out as well ) but he's used samples from
Live at Monterey.
Cheers
