Thank you for some nice comment.
I really liked 'St. Etienne' solo performance by Zappa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo_CduB0sEg
I am familiar with 'Jazz from Hell' album also but I do not listen to that kind of music anymore.
It's just to let you know.
Best, Alex

"This piece sounds simple but there's so many layers here and I used even some separate sampled fragments from these loops here and there to create some consistent soundscape."
- I really noticed this right from the start. Wonder if you could conduct a live act with this kind of maestro knowledge? Really amazing stuff, and great laid back vibe. I'm going to listen again, and envision beach side surf. Cheers!

Hi Alex!
I love this track!
You totally mastered the loop challenge. Could never have imagined it would sound like this in the end.
Fav'ed and downloaded - thanks!

Cheers/ SJ =)

Thanks a lot SJ. The loops were exactly of my preference so it was just fun to put it all together and I was surprised at the end as well! Thanks again for some nice words - I'm really happy you liked the track. Best, Alex

You've made really pleasing jazzy combination out of those loops...very creative stuff! This deserves a 'fav'!

thanks a lot for the fav! I am really glad that you enjoyed what I did with the given loops. I hope I will be able to move from jazzy to jazz some day which is truly the only option. thank you again, alex

This is definitely in your style, but you have incorporated other's fine audio work, and thus opened up to new ideas here. I'm really enjoying this one! Lots of subtle elements for such a minimal composition. Sounds really nice in my headphones this morning! I'm making it a point not to listen to the loops used, just the final work, so I can't say what is loops and what is not... but it's all very listenable and relaxing! Fine work! Fave!

thanks a lot for some nice words. I am happy that you simply enjoyed this track and just found it relaxing.

The choice of loops was exactly my taste indeed. I had to use ferryterry's sax solo jazz line and two other fine loops in the 'chillout' style. I needed to move from A minor to F minor so finally the composition has some nice freely played jazz intro and let's say 'main body'. There's really no way to combine those loops together - so I decided to build the entire arrangement according to the traditional harmony and I simply recorded the e piano throughout (there's actually 4 different e-piano parts here).
This piece sounds simple but there's so many layers here and I used even some separate sampled fragments from these loops here and there to create some consistent soundscape.
The ferryterry's jazz line made me think about the chord changes and I had to work in reverse to find some corresponding chords. So basically I started with harmonising the melodies from loops/samples.

Thanks again. Alex

This is pretty sweet Alex but I seem to be experiencing some samsara at the moment...the song ended.

Very creative and well mixed. Nice use of the loops!

Now that's a cool track, simple and direct very nicely done...
This is the kind of track that a person, with a little bit of creativity
could have some fun...Huuuummm...

Peace...TG.

thanks a lot! yes, it would be quite nice to hear some more on the top of all that, but it is not something 'in control' so I am really happy with the all of what I have already. thanks again. Alex

Alex,
This is a fine work you have done to and with this loops.
Sounds exelent and is a nice little chilly jazz tune.

I realy could hear all the 3 loops you had to use.
If you listen to my track and the loops i had to use, i think it will be a little more difficult to find :)

Nice one

stay tuned

Thanks a lot Joe! I am happy you liked my jazzy track out of the jazzy loops:) There's some processing on the given loops here to make it all corresponding.
I much enjoyed your production as well. Thanks again, Alex

Description : A blend of heavy bass, melodic piano vibes, and atmospheric synth textures. I wanted to create a sound that balances powerful low-end energy with emotional melodies and subtle sonic layers.
I'm still learning and improving my production skills. I'd really appreciate your honest feedback on the overall sound, mixing, bass balance, melody, and arrangement.

This is one of my latest experiments in EDM production. Hope you enjoy listening!
