Description : I know that it's early in the game for Christmas music, but this is easily one of my favorite melodies, period. It is a song that I have been meaning to record for years, and finally it's done. I started throwing around the idea of a looperman Christmas album with some of the members here and naturally Slap was the first one that I contacted, as I figured he would add something lovely and distinct to this track. I do believe that the results speak for themselves. Thanks as always for listening and here's hoping that you get some inspiration from it. Peace, Six

I just put together some old ideas to see if it will work. Some vocals and brass, or guitars is clearly needed. Let me know what you think about it. Tnx
Description : This song highlights a few different styles of jazz. First it starts with a kinda early 20s and 30s groove. Than it melds into a New Orleans style. Than into a sort of Maynard Ferguson big band jazz/rock groove, and finishing off with the 20s and 30s style again, all held together with some cool horns and bass. All n all, it's...Pretty Cool! Hope you like

Description : Do not freak out just because this is jazz! There's also blues, rock, funk and a little hip hop in it to break up the deep, chillout jazz sections - gets particularly rocking then funky at the end. Main bassline (the track's foundation) is recycled leftover slide resonator guitar parts detuned one octave to make a slide bass sound. Also features: piano, violin, hammered dulcimer, organ, ethereal pad guitar, bass guitar, jazz/blues/rock electric guitar and multiple programmed acoustic drumkits. This was difficult to make at times as I thought I needed more leads parts eg from sax or trumpet. But I'm happyish with the end result. I expect very little interest in this as it's both jazz and long jazz. But it's also an unusual type of genre-mixing jazz. So, leave your thoughts, good or bad, if you like...
Description : This track made me just stop working on it and listen to it for enjoyment.
Smooth Mellow funky Jazz. Uses: 0111003-djrumplestiltskin-swung-funk-drum-beat, 0087009-mrroads442-guitar-line, 0072485-michiel555-mellow-funk, 0058934-ferryterry-90-bpm-soprano-sax. Is this Funk or Jazz?
Description : This track contains only free loops from Stayonbeat.com and several loops from Looperman artists (listed below). I "made a promise" that my next track will be use a lot of jazzy loops - well, i done with this track, for the great sadness of jazz lovers or experts i think - i fear they will never forgive me. :) While my ISP launches my internet out of the Earth system for a long time, i had to face the fact that i dont have too much downloaded jazz loops on my computer, so i think no wonder that this one is sounds like if i smoke some marihuana while making it. But hey, who cares, i like the result - it reminds me the (maybe only) really funny episode of "Breaking Bad", where Pinkman uses some heroin and flyes up with an idiotic smile on his face - that chapter is priceless. :D
I dont think this one needs a vocal, but ofcourse you can use it if you want, and as always, just write and i will give any support as i can. Any feedback welcomed too as always. Enjoy! UPDATE 2015.10.24.: improved audio quality - lower lows, higher highs. Now in 256kbps!

Description : Music by Antonio Carlos Jobim. This particular piano arrangement is from one of jazz sheet piano books I found on scribd. The electric piano is MrRay22 plugin which I played on Casio CDP220 digital piano. This is also a new piece that I learned today so it was quite tricky to get a proper touch at places and overall make the entire thing sound anywhere realistic. I tried many times and this was probably the best take. Also I am relatively new to playing latin piano music. I didn't manipulate any notes after recording - instead I added few virtual vintage amps. I choose jazz but it is a bossa nova latin style. Enjoy and feel free to comment and download.

Description : "Oh no - not jazz metal! You're not supposed to mix those genres together." Yes, but someone's got to and the musical gods have chosen me for the difficult task. 9 mins of instrumental jazz metal - damn I sure know how to write a hit song - US No 1 here I come. Anyway - there's some dark, swinging groovy jazz, with Rhodes and guitar as the main instruments, for a few minutes and then some haunting, thumping evil breaks loose. Look out for the powerful synth horn sound. And then it just gets heavier and heavier before returning to some nice chillgroove funky mystery jazz. Instruments played and/or programmed: electric guitar, bass guitar, electric cello, multiple programmed acoustic drumkits, filtered strings, Rhodes, big synth bass, evil synth horn and a few other assorted synths. I assume this has too much jazz for metallers and too much metal for jazzers. So, only for weirdoes like me who enjoy both. This will surely be too odd for most people but I like to think it's pretty interesting and powerful. Let me know how its weirdness worked for you...
Total loveliness. Great arrangement.
This is really great man. The comb og guitar and horn with sorounding sound no words for it. Keep playing. God bless
Hi Six....sorry it has been a while since I have heard your sweet guitarwork, but glad you added to the xmas list....Great colab with Slap

This was just what I needed. Something to really cool my nerves and get me down on my feet after listening to so much hip-hop. I can't really believe it though, seeing that christmas is MONTHS away, but this is really great, so why not enjoy it? :)

NIce Six, your plugged in and rippin yet it still feels so smooth and relaxing, you are a true 6 string master, Santa should reward you, like a nice pair of 6 fingered leather gloves in your stocking so you can play in this bizarre LA cold. lol. Nice arrangement on this and a very nice addition to the looper x-mas album. peace.
usually I'm not a great fan of christmas songs, but this special song is the one exception ...
you know, I'm Austrian, and for us this song is part of our national identity, we're simply proud that this melody was born here ...
and I love your interpretation ... a lot of emotion in there!!
wonderful ...
peace, rei
This is one of the best songs i ever heard round here. but not because the others are not good, but your one is perfect!
i loved the jazz guitar and the saxophone solos, just perfect for this time!
soulful melodies that will be played all years forever. nice work. that sax knock me off my feet.
I want some hot cocoa now. You know the kind with the little marshmellows. Great tune. Excellent as always.
I realize I have reviewed this previously, however when I need to find comfort from the storm, I seek out those things that provide sanctuary. I come back to this song of peace performed with such sensitive emotion to cradle me from the world and remind me that there is indeed hope. I find peace and hope in this sound. I am home.

This is as beautiful as the blessed night itself. A sonic reflection of hope. This is as brilliant as a shinning star guiding us to our dreams of peace on earth. My words can not convey the depth of craftsmanship on display.
Cause for tears of joy.

I haven't even thought of a Halloween costume yet but after listening to this, I say screw Halloween. I'm ready for Christmas now. You two are just amazing. Rambo, Ivan Drago, hell...even President Ahmadenijad would shed a tear hearing this. Virtuoso work by both of you. You rode the balance of sticking to the concept without making it boring and making the song yours without bastardizing it. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.
F'd+D'd.
Man, I'm ready to throw some logs on the fire. Turn out the lights and me and my wife sit on the couch and listen to this.
Wonderfull work guys.
This is really cool...makes me feel all warm inside...all the Looperfam curled up around a fireplace having a good time, just enjoying the spirit of Christmas...while you've got Six and Slap performing live for us...This is really nice guys...good work you made a good team on this one...
< < Favourited> >

Wow Six, it's September but that makes me feel the Christmas spirit coming on. Great arrangement and playing from the six finger Santa, I'm glad you managed to fuse my parts in (hope it didn't take too long)! It will be interesting to see what happens from here on now this has thrown the cat among the pigeons.... All the best to you Buddy...
Cheers Slap...
Amazing track. Loved it. ^^
Well truth to be told i excepted some more happy mood song fitting for a christmas night but still this is great
A great step away from traditionally arranged carols by candle light....some superb playing by yourself and the Slapster....get this one out quickly into the stores and you might just do what Christmas has become...make a fortune!..with the emphasis on tune!...cheers and Christmas blessings Planet :)
