Description : Light and floating melodies over a jazz chord sequence.
All instruments Slap Johnson,drums by sonic foundry.
The idea behind this song,was to create a Carlos Jobim type track. Rather than create a set melody, I decided improvisation would suit the piece better ( you can be the judge of that).
Cheers Slap...

WOWOWOWOWOW
The name of this is so appropriate. Your one of the artists where you can close your eyes and just drift into relaxation. A sort of hypnotized trance where all the troubles you have just slowly fade! It makes me feel weightless!

Before I didn't think that much too jazz/sax music but now I am wanting to produce my own. To change someones views through music is very hard to do and you do it almost effortlessly!

Thankyou for sharing your hard work with the world. A real pleasure to listen to :)!

The title is perfect with this one - so breezy and light it's easy to drift away while listening. Great choice with improvisation here, as the sax both carries the melody, and the spirit of the song. The spirit here wouldn't have full voice if it was a fixed melody. Very nice.

Hey Slap..a great 'up' piece....light and emotive,full of heaps of space and reflection..there's so much music that's right in your face these days and it's a pleasure to listen to something that has charm and a delicate sensibility about it,being an improvisational melody it has that wonderful reality that only comes from the heart....beautiful touch and very cool to boot..cheers Dave :)

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 : I think it's a late evening song to accompany you for a single drink.
Jazzy in most of the aspects. It is made single handedly so please consider it an experimentation for the thrill of making music.
Hope you will like it.

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 : Something a bit different from us. I (Bobo) played guitar, synth, midi bass and percs to this piano loop by LM's most excellent Rasputin. Wataya, stoned as usual, thought he heard Barbara Streisand singing. This is the result.

Description : I created a hip hop groove in Logic and decided to duel some Saxophones. I am playing the Baritone sax on the left pan and the Tenor Sax on the right pan.
I added some bells like a boxing match bell to give it a fight drama feel. The hip hop track itself is dope to me. The duel is cool too. Who won?
