Summer Bossa by bitfeld


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
This marks the one year anniversary of Ed Wemmerus "sloparts" leaving us behind to join to the big Jam that awaits all of us.

I found this open collab by Gorazd Bozic "bitfeld" and had been playing around with it for about a year when I told Ed about it. He took it, and in his OCD way created the bass line you hear literally over night. The man was a genius. I never met anyone who could actually create a midi track and make it sound like someone playing a real instrument but Ed came closer than anyone I ever met. I miss him as I am sure many of you do as well.

This is an open collab feel free to add to it whatever you would like. If you want separate tracks message me and I will get them to you. My guitar in this is nothing more than an indulgence and as I fumble my way through I hope you won't mind.

Please put your headphones on close you eyes and remember him with me.

Peace

Hey, Ed, you out there?
Oh, I'm remembering him, all right. My participation fell apart, coincidentally, about the same time we sent Ed off to the big space-jam. I've come to appreciate Ed's production chops more and more. Also what he taught me. Maybe this'll get me motivated to do more, maybe collab w/this... or you. Thanks, Guy.

nice tribute to Ed:)
I think I'm speechless....doesn't happen often...love the whole song and to hear Ed's part in there along with yours Guy and "bitfield" ..well, nothing like music to take you back to great memories of great collabs, kudos to all...and to Ed...there's still more of your music waiting to be heard...and it will happen...it will be heard:)) thanks for another of
your and Guy's collab just over a year ago...
guygrooves said 282 days ago (August 16th, 2012)
Thanks Deb
I am sure he would love to hear your collab with him as soon as you can make it happen. He loved the sound of your vocal and said it reminded him of the better days of Country Western female artists. When you're ready we will give this place a taste of it. Thanks again

Summer Bossa
Thanks Guy~~This is awesome. Love it! I needed this today of all days. Been somewhat 'down' today, but that sure lifted me up, QUICK! I know Ed was jammin' with you the whole time I was listening to this, but I also heard his "OCD" comments along with the song. Hey, it ain't Ed without the OCD attack! Haha! Love and thanks!

Jeanne
It was our mutual "OCD" that drew us together when we hit our stride working together. I am so glad you like it.

Ed would be the only one more excited about it than me. Go for it girl and let me know if you need anything from me. Separate tracks perhaps?

I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Ed, but I bet he'd be pleased with this one. Excellent rocker - those guitar tones are great! The bass does give it drive. Thanks for sharing it.
guygrooves said 281 days ago (August 17th, 2012)

Ed would have greeted you with warmth and friendship as he did with all the active members here and I am sure you would have called him friend. Thanks for the nice words.

this is a cool jam
I really like the guitar -- nice, crunchy tone, and it swings pretty well with the beat. I see what you mean about the bass -- he was definitely a talented guy. Nice tribute.

Thank you very much for dropping by. Ed really liked your music for most of the same reasons I do. He once told me that finding young people like you was something he loved about the original music scene.

A year goes past so quickly
I had such good skype chats with Ed and will always remember my American friend with fondness.

Nicely done Guy, Ed and I talked about it but never managed to actually do a song together. I'm hoping to post one soon that was originally meant for him but he never got to it (everyone wanted Ed on their songs it seemed and Ed was always busy being Ed, giving his all)

A great guy and a fine piece you've created. I've downloaded it and I'll see what happens.

Cheers

Dick

Thanks Dick
There is no time frame on any of this and I want to do it next year as well. Ed was very kind with his music and I have a little bit of it, some finished and some not. There is plenty of time.

To you for remembering Ed this way. A giant in my book, as a musician, and even more as a human being.

Summer Bossa
Reading all these beautiful words that everyone has been writing about Ed, even a year after his passing, really fills my heart with all the outpouring of love for him that I feel. I want to thank everyone for expressing their love not only for Ed's music, but for Ed himself. I have to admit...he was definitely one in a million! Thanks again!

I am happy you stopped by. I might not have met Ed if you hadn't encouraged me to collaborate here I met him when we posted our version of "The One" if I remember right.

Outstanding!
I will say that I think I have saved some secret sloparts works that I need to release. I think Ed would have wanted it that way. As soon as life gets back to a little bit of normalcy I'll dig them up and push them out here.

Doing Ed a great service here Guy!

Thank you
I was away from MJ for a long time. I'm really happy to see this collab being being used in memory of Ed, although I didn't know him. I'm more or less speechless at this moment, so I'll just say: Thanks Ed! Thanks Guy!

Ed would
have found you Gorazd, he frequently perused the open collabs as I do for anything that stands out. This gave him the same bug it gave me. It is an awesome jam track. I still play along with it. I did a "jam" rather than write another guitar part to it and by doing so stepped all over you and Ed's parts but I just wanted to jam with him again, so I did, and thats when I got the idea that others might want to jam with him. Thanks again brother you gave us all something fun and tight to play with.
