Description : My last LP very jazzy, in the spirit of Bugge Wesseltoft, one of the best actual electro jazz man. And if you want more about me, my album is now available on my bandcamp!

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...

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 : Jazzy trip hop.
Every instrument is performed and recorded live. Piano, double bass, drums.
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...

Hi Mark
This track is another one of your proffesional tracks and I love it.
Just beautifull !! The whole track is perfect.
In my country we say: Petje af voor jou
ooooh Mark, love the vocals in this super! smooth jazzy groove it was AMAZING! before but the vocals are an absolute! sweetttt! touch to this already *DIAMOND* track. Man, you got it going ON! with this beaut right here still floored, I'll get up soon when the track is done I gotta go do my morning run! :) This is Seriously TOP NOTCH. Continue the GREATNESS! brother Mark :)
nice update Mark, loved this first time the updates have polished an already good piece, really smooth. you are the king of jazz and brass as ive told you many times and is exactly why you got a line and shout out on my latest track that refrences the point ive just made, top job fella
I'm feeling it now Mr.Krabs. Very smooth grooves man.
oh this grooves a lot! very tight and funky rythm section and I really liked each solo part and melody you have in this. I d presonally liked it a bit less compressed mix, but it is a really cool song overall!
I like that horn mixed with the electric piano. Get synth work at 1:40. Nice changes, predictable timing, unpredictable content. Good guitar work. Nice guitar/vox blend as well. Always liked when Pink Floyd did that.
...even a flute.
This is one of the keepers.
Great piece of music, Mark! So much warmth and groove makes me want to move behind my computer. At least my head is dancing :-). Instafavoured and my hat's off.
Gr
Auke
Hey Mark, as usual a kickass track that sounds unmistakably like you but a pleasant variation from the theme simultaneously. I'm not sure why but I get a massive 80's vibe from this one. Also, another instrumentation question. Did you do the flute solo live or is it a VST? If so which one? I've got a serious weakness for jazz flute lol
Keep kickin' *ss my man!
Cam
Great work Mark, enjoyed it, Thanks!
Sick bass line on this! I like how the drums pick it up a bit half way onto it, really nice drum sound. And then the unison solos are just crushing it. Nice one!
Nailed it!
Podcast huh...don't put ideas in my head Mark, lol...ohhh this is such a beaut!...Loved hearing this again. Man oh Man! Lush!
woah kick and bass guitar heaven right from the start and it mellows out into a lighter piece later I love it you musical wizard you!
Danggg that is so grovvy this is great for a groove playlist can just vibe!
Wow... Impressive~ My brain is stuck in the 80/90s too and I am feeling this. Keep it coming, bro~
Faved.
Ronabo
writing as i listen to this, i couldnt help writing before i finish listening. That bassline in the beginning is so awesome man, as well as the rhodes. so good, probably your best! keep it up. bopping my head to this. ooh the guitar just came in, im about halfway, so good!
Nice, very early nineties sound, percussion, and bass-wise. Very cool mate. cool effect on the muted trumpet. Like a chatterbox. Well arranged and tasteful. You "done" well mate!
Cru
What a funky jazz groove you've got going on here, a lithe and lively, sweet and very refined call and response composition that dances along, about, around, up and down, through, in, over and out without missing a step or dropping a beat - lovely : )
You had me from the first beat.
Like BofD said the way you have
the instruments literally talking to
each other in perfect harmony is superb.
Excellent composition, arrangement and performance.
Great Track. Faved..
PEACE... From the East...
Loving the track kingmt77, nice work.
I was wondering where you went. I like all the mimicry. Nice sax solo. Nice use of vox.
Interesting you talk about workflow, systematic approaches a huge to productivity. That's how you make an album in a week. I'm a fan of templates, presets, and for larger projects a consistent theme, as well as "rules" for max voices, style/genre choices, etc. It seems restricting but really the opposite occurs.
Anyway, good track, nice flute at the end. Faved of course.
Nice to see you around Mark, aah, missed your jazz bro, loving the trumpet and flute can I here drum sticks tapping here such a delicate touch, the keys are soft real groovy piece and defeniatly more balanced. Great listen on a Sunday, thanks MT
Groovy af, love the way you put this together, it's really good!
Alien.
Well hello mr touch of class I mean Mark :) woooo! this is so sweet and jammy jam it's sticking to my ears haha...seriously tho, this is the kind of delectable music you hear in high-end venues. My ears are ecstatic hearing this masterpiece...Ahhh one of the finer things in life! is hearing this...It's a real blessing & breath of fresh air to hear some unadulterated jazz from none other than the jazzmaster of LM. Very NICE! indeed. Easiest Fave! BRAVO!
