Description : This is a live recording of the Saxobones jazz quintet FT Alexander Bone (Alto & Soprano sax),Richard West (Piano),Jonathan Berry (Bass), Luke Stevens (Drums),Steve Bone (Tenor sax). These recordings took place on the 7th March 2010,and are all first takes. These tracks are the basis of our new live Saxobones album of jazz standards, this is our version of the Jimmy Smith classic Back at the Chicken Shack. I recorded these tracks using Ableton and the amazing line 6 tone port with two mics direct to one stereo track. I have also posted videos of the same recordings on youtube. go to groovetonemusic page to see how we did it, and watch the recordings take place. All comments welcome..
Cheers Slap...

It feels like time-warping into that moment right between Big Band and Jazz. The jazz sensibility you guys are jacked into is fantastic! I totally agree with PBJ about the restraint shown by your drummer - totally happening track! Faved.

Hey guys I love this..it's so Live!(haha I know that sounds lame)but you don't get much live material on this site and it's a welcome relief seeing and hearing people actually playing instruments together! lol..for a first take,I dips me lid...everything went smoothly with everyone getting a look in...also great presence of mind by the drummer Luke in playing with controlled restraint,how many times in a quick recording situation do the drums overpower everything..though thank god for jazz drummers who actually have some musical sensibilities..lol (apologies to all you rock drummers out there!)haha....I really dig this and can't wait to hear your next offering...cheers planet :) (and I might add that the recording quality of this track is very cool!)

Description : Well, I didn't know what I was doing but here's a slow tempo track and it's quite boring :D
I used an acapella by RayKoefoed - The Sum Of A Body ( LM ), actually just one verse.
I need a rest :)

Description : Atmospheric, late-night UK garage and liquid drum & bass blending deep rolling basslines, shuffled breakbeats, intimate breathy female vocals and rhythmic DJ turntablism. Chopped vocal samples and hypnotic hooks.
