Paradise Road - Planetjazzbass

Ahhhhhh! I remember this one!
Such a smooth long ride kinda of vibe.
It's the one I wanted to hear,
I searched for it,
but I thought I remembered the one I really liked was something about the road or road trip.
Anyhoo, I will download this one and continue my search.
I've been away looking for a rapper to collab. Hehehe
Actually, I've been away tending to life. :-)
Hope life is treating you well Dave!

hi.
very cool intro. too bad you leave that 'dark ambient' atmosphere (which could be developed into an another cool track for sure) - the 'main body' it very 'jazz': the trumpet reminds even miles davis recordings at parts, at least as far as I am familiar with his recordings...
Anyway it all sound very smooth overall; maybe too much 'punch' on drums for me - I do not like it but the composition is very fine.
I do not think that bass guitar here sounds really like a 'bassline'. More 'abstract' and 'sound-image' than really constructive lines but still it works. You could fade out that track but explosion was a nice choice as well - why not?
I can hear some eastern flavours and a motorycle (a plain?) passing by (1:30) - the 'cinematic' element of this track.
very nice track. Alex

Hey mate

As always you deliver, very nice piece of work, love the horn work in this piece, listening to this one you are taken on a journey, guessing is going by description is what you wanted to achieve for the listener...well you did that top notch...instant fav man...Peace n much respect on this little gem...Mosaic...

Dave,

As always, you have delivered a quality track. You are one of the top Loopers in my humble opinion.

Awesome.

Mark.

Great and beautiful track!! Great work you have. Thanks for sharing it.

just catching up with this one this morning...did you do the video Dave?...Its one fantastic bit of picture painting music. I read the description as I was hitting play so maybe I`m a bit biased but it sure brings the scenes to mind...It reminds me too of how sad it is when a bunch of twisted old me serving their diety of hatred & death so cruely misuse young peoples minds & bodies....super job on the mixing & production too by the way....great track....Ed

sitting here i could sworn that miles made a featured appearance on this track...nice synth work..you tend to get a real live sound out of your productions which is very nice!!drum track is there....and the ending was way cool

Peace

Ohh yes! I like that trumpet and that bass is amazing down there.

I hear this as a mixture of genres and different time spaces. Retro elements combined with post modern stuff and a stellar use of effects.

The duduk is fabulous! One of my favorite instruments and boy did it work well here!

Thanks for sharing!

Yes i have commented on this track already but since it popped up in the featured track box i thought i'd press play and comment on it again.
For some reason i keep repeating this phrase to myself "I've got to get the hang of that bloody Ableton live"
It will happen one day, oh yes it will!
Anyway, i still think this is great and the explosion at the end just seals the deal.
Actually, on that note i have a mate who's just started up a business that sells landmines that look like prayer matts. He says prophets have been going through the roof.

Love the Jaco style bass runs man!!! Also really dug mid way thru the tune when things heated up!! And the sense of humor as allways, great stuff big guy!

Bm;)

I got ecxactly what I expected from the subject. Great tune with all instruments especialy trumpet and bass. God bless

Glad I waited till the end to start typing, nice fx. Interesting topic for sure, kinda reminds me of music by a band called Brand New Heavies, acid jazz band is what I would call them. Really a bunch of goodness happening here, except for the main character the track is about, hehe. Nicely put together and mixed, always a pleasure!

I'll take jazz for $100 Dave. That trumpet is quite natural here, and that ending is very creative!

I hope the film gets completed as well, a visual in the head is great but one with the eyes is FAR greater.

Great job!

..not much left to say, it would appear...i do not seem to be alone in my adoration of this musicscape. the tension is definitely presence, but its the underlying current of cool confidence, especially present in the masterful horn runs, that really brings this piece to a whole new level for me. its all just so....gooooooooood.
heers for the much needed inspirado. you have been a rich source of it oh these many years.
Outstanding job!

As Jimmy Kranky would say, Fandabidoozy!! (I dunno if you'll even know who Jimmy Kranky is but that basically means it's bloody brilliant)
What captures me the most is the clarity of this piece. Everthing sits in exactly the right place, the instruments compliment each other perfectly and i love the unpredictableness of the beat patterns.
I'm taxing a copy of this so i can play it when the sun comes out again. Cheers!!

Dave this music plays out a beautiful and yet tragic mindscape! For me it really portrays the subject matter with the precision you only get with a master artist!

There are subtle light and dark elements which I think would reflect the thoughts of a martyr on his final mission?

Absolutely brilliant work my friend!

A tremendous composition from start to finish. A wonderful music to enjoy listening. It is full of nuances and sensations that transport you ... A really great music.

That's really powerful... fits the described scene so well. His feelings, thoughts, environment, and the inevitable ending... everything is here in those 3mins.
Great track, thanks for sharing!

Hi Dave
These are just the little things between the bars that bring the whole thing roll into. But a film can be confusing if you do not know the end. The prelude has succeeded ........ But I want the end ......... lol
RESPECT! ! !
CHEERS Zappo

lux interior - mindscaping music - all respect

it took me in pretty deep. i suppose the groove very well might suggest the mindset of the soon-to-be suicide. a coolness, a detachment, a resignation.

technically awesome work.

hope the film is coming together and there are bucks $$$!!
peace.

Wow,those drums...I know others have said it but they are superb and I wanted to ask if that was guitar swelling in with part of the intro?

I knew with a track from you I had to plug the headphones in instead of these worthless tiny Altec Lansing speakers I use to just play music... not "hear" music.

Very good Dave!
Allen.

Hey Dave

This is excellent - really enjoyed listening. Great sounding drums and the whole feel is very very good indeed. It's tense and full of foreboding too. A touch of Miles Davis? Good luck with the film - hope it materialises.

Richie

The subject is serious but, you have knew here, provide elements, of a certain of hearing lightness .... Highlighted by pounding drums. Two contradictory elements, but you have done here, a subtle and well mix ....

Dan

and if he doesn't find his way - there's got to be something wrong with him, because i sure did......a very enjoyable piece of excellence....everything just flows on its own in the same direction.... thanks for sharing this
