A Quantum Theory - Kingmt77

1st Apr 2026 08:16 - 6 months ago
Description : With this Jazz Composition, I've taken on the task of playing EVERYTHING through VST's. No loops and absolutely NO AI! Guitarist Mike Stern is by far my favorite. My guitar attempt is inspired by Mike and I played that part through Kontakt 8. For all of the other instruments I just went with the flow. Check it out, let me know if it's good. Enjoy!

I feel the same way about playing all my instruments via VSt. To much people using other people samples and saying look I am a musician. My fav Jazz guitarist is Al Dimeola.

Agreed! Just yesterday I was listening to No Mystery from RTF. Even back in the mid 7Os his sound was a force to be reckoned with. When switching the instrumentalist hat for the arrangers and composers hat the loops from other musicians can prove to be invaluable. Take Sax vsts. Finding quality sounds is few and far in between. Some samplers will do in a pinch. But the best ones Ive found are loops. And slicing and dicing loops is where the fun begins. Kinda like the good old tape cutting days. Anyway, its a pleasure meeting you and Im looking forward to check more of your work.

Peace,

Mark

As a drummer, the first thing I heard was beautiful drums. Steady, in (not simple) time absolutely. I re-listened to the track a few times because the first one always gives the wrong impression. Technically it sounds great, I was impressed with the final file like quality. I think I would put it in new jazz, so I justify the different passages from the instruments you added. I liked that the bass is often out of sync with the drums, this makes the piece of special technique. Congratulations. In general, it is a very good job.

kingmt77 replied 23rd Apr 2026 - 5 months ago
LINEARFADE! Greetings. The detail you shared in your feedback is very helpful. I'm still learning and this type of track requires a lot of consideration for many different elements. It's also great to know a few listens was necessary to draw a fair conclusion. It's good to know this effort proved to be a decent listen.

Peace,

Hello Mark, i aint been about for a bit but i knew what to expect here. its sounds absolutely great on my speakers, every instrument is so clear the space and arrangement, the flute is stellar mate the drums are fantastic too and that bass is fire, i assume this isn't the first cut judging the comments but if this the final cut, its not missing anything at all, this is a fabulous pice of work by one of our communities finest, great job mate

Love the drum intro and the build. Fretless bass? What are you using for that? Drums sound amazing to me. Great composition. Damn, hit the download button but no go lol. All the best, Chris.

Greetings Chris. It's good you got a chance for the stop, compliments, and feedback. So the Fretless Beast is the Native Instruments Session Bassist Upright Bass. My personal favorite. The Drums, EZ Drummer 3 Jazz kit that I worked overtime to extract that jazz nectar out of it LOL!

Shoot me your e-mail. I'll be more than happy to gift you a copy.

Hej, Mark, second time around. Love this tune, maybe less verb on the guitar and a bit more on the flute, but that's just being pedantic at this point. just quality music, and it's put that OMG smile on my face. So there is so much right about this tune. I realize that I miss these complex jazz tunes. Gives me that Brain Buzz. ehh!

If jazz already seems complicated to me because of those technical difficulties, it's much more so when played without real instruments, using VSTs. Congratulations!

Hi Mark, everything's amazing here, as always! You're a real firebrand when it comes to catchy music. The use and execution of all the instruments is beyond reproach ... your rhythmic work is beyond any doubt.
However:
I have to say that at the beginning of the track, I immediately felt that the snare drum had way too much reverb.
I also think that the flute, which has a very prominent part in the middle, sounds a bit unbalanced ... kind of muffled.
Please don't misunderstand me... I'm worlds away from this kind of production, and my impressions are of course competely subjective, but you wanted to know what stands out. So here are my little comments, with the utmost respect.

Best regards,

Micky

kingmt77 replied 7th Apr 2026 - 5 months ago
Micky Greetings my friend. Its good for your stop and critique. Honestly one thing we share is that you and I agree on where things can be improved upon.

For example that snare you mentioned. I did the drum mix on Ableton 11. Then I flattened the drum mix and It sat on a drive for a few months. In comes Ableton 12 and I cant load the project. So Im stuck with a drum mix thats kinda too reverby. Just a couple of hours ago I deverbed the snare then LP the whole kit. The flute has been harmonized and Im going to make some adjustments with that.

Ill be uploading an update later today. Thanks for the sharp lookout. It aint right till its right!

Hello Mark
What an amazing composition, with magical moments from every instrument in the band. The articulations and harmonies were used perfectly, resulting in a song of exceptional quality. No single instrument stood out alone, each played its part beautifully...the electric piano chords and rhythm, the bass lines, the enchanting flute, and the compelling drums, all so well performed and blended together. My compliments and admiration.
Best wishes, Anthony

The overall mood of the world seems to be in a pretty dark place, and its a struggle not to let it affect how Im feeling. There's no helping the fact that Im embarrassed to be an American right now, and sometimes im ashamed to be human in general, but i have a secret weapon, and thats music. I enjoy taking some time to sit and listen to the work everyone here in the community is doing, and get my dose of inspiration while im at it. Your song here took me in completely and for a few minutes all that mattered was the journey I was on. Its been awhile since i felt that, thank you Mark. Ive learned alot about jazz in general from your music, but its awesome that you use those saxophones in a way that makes them interesting to me. This one is my fav ive heard of yours so far, and ill likely come back to listen again when i get home and kick back. You helped me shake off a not so great mood, too. Thanks for sharing!
