kingmt77

It's hard for me to give a proper description. I don't understand the genre. But I see many people like it. I love jazz. I just don't understand it.

I guess I'm stuck on the fact that the drums are too loud. I'd probably like some hi-hats and light percussion. Overall, it's a good melody.

Amazing work kingmt77!

Mark you are a true gift to our community, from my first days on this platform i have listened to you, Jazz is inside you, like non other here, you and Steven and Matthias were a huge help to me when i first started, you were my peers and lead the way in how to be a pillar in the community, be constructive be helpful, reply to comments when people give you time and most important continue to improve, you where also a teacher too, you made me dig deeper and find goodies in engineering, I'm still here listening to you 6 years later, lets say I still consider you as a mentor, your arrangements amaze me always, i only have to concentrate really on my vocal positioning, that's hard enough, but you play and conduct the orchestra and jazz section and everything is always tight, you are a great listen and a valued musical friend, and this piece smacked from the very first beat, loved its pace and drive, funky jazzy a fantastic mix, Mark you do know I have sciatica, your not helping, i just wanna swing bruv and 3 1/4 min how, it has everything your longer pieces have in a shorter time great work mate super listen, your a great artist i'm proud to consider a friend too

Absolutely phenomenal quality. What a banger honestly. Your mastering work is just incredible. :D

Here in Greece, for situations like yours, we say "unplayable," meaning you can't possibly compete, like trying to play basketball against the Harlem Globetrotters. It shows just how gifted a musician and composer you are, and it's something to admire and be proud of having you among us. I have no reason to sugarcoat my words; these are simply my thoughts, sparked by the magic of your music, King. The track is just great!
Best wishes, Anthony

Banger.

Thanks for sharing this piece, King. I was genuinely impressed. The attention to detail throughout the arrangement is outstanding, and the effort you've invested in crafting it shines through in every passage. Beautiful work and a pleasure to listen to.

Intro was lit man drums and bass are mean as and the brass section superb man what a ride thanks for the share Mark i enjoyed my listen :)

Amazing!
I have a weakness for the sound of the saxophone, and this piece is incredible; it has tremendous energy. I admire artists who are capable of creating works like this. And I agree with Manuela, what we would have missed if you had switched to pop, hahaha.
Best regards.

Amazing music. Fav for sure.
I love it!

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.

Wow nice upbeat jazz tune. I dig it.

Wow Kayos2 inspired a genius of your calibre - wow, that is so sweet to hear ;)

JAZZ MASTERPIECE - the funky piano and cute female vocal towards end - the bass is something else and the way it weaves together for layers of sound is genius

Take a break from the jazz?! NOOO!! Ah, well, We can always go and listen to the stuff you've already got uploaded. Just make sure you come back to it, we absolutely love it man. We can see that you have a comment from Banana Lu - He is one of the reasons the Squadd came to be because of his hard work in our earliest days, and because of how much he championed us. We can never repay that kind of debt, but there's always a place for him in the group. If you have never heard our early songs, most of them feature Lu. My personal favorite is "Getting Away" and its on our page, if youd like to hear it. Anyway, thanks for being a friend to the Squadd, Mark!

Stankface activated, im a simple man. I just need that bass entry. Your mixes evolved, bold choices. Keep it moving is a celebration of latin inspired jazz. That little skat female thing got me. Crazy Ideas, and you let every section be it self , they never try to outdo each other. Very tastfull use of special fx like wah. Your a humble musician,. In my opinion, don't stop with jazz. I would imiditly buy a whole jazz latin fusion ep from you.

Brilliant bro It reminds me of the guy in a film where he plays drums and the teacher is a nutter.
Always a ride with your music and this is no exception.

Oh man that little part at 3.03 is amazing. You could broaden it a little more for sure. Overall great track, listening to it makes me happy. :)

The bass and sax are incredible, Mark, and the rhythm is crazy in the best way. I can imagine a lady in a red dress moving through the centre of it all, dancing samba with effortless flow, while the band in Spanish hats surrounds her, locked into the groove and playing like the whole night depends on it.

That's amazing Mark! I also like the vocals you introduced! Are they an artist you know or a sample pack or a synth/midi sound?

Mr. King ! such talent my brother '' what a piece of art this one is, from the Bass, to the piano, to the congas and sax, this is my vibe, Jazz will always be first among any genre in my life. Thank you sir!

Mark i didn't expect anything less, that jumped out my speakers on 9.5 secs, great sound-stage. i know I'm repeating myself, but from my earliest comments to you, i always mentioned the space that you give each instrument, they all shine on their turn in the spotlight but simply sit alongside each other in such a tight jam, love all the little riffs and touches , the percs, your sound design is excellent.
jazz is in your heart as we know, so i don't expect you to be away from it to long, it will drag you back in, but i am now looking forward to what genre your going to bring, do you have a plan in mind or are you just gonna go on feeling, whatever you choose is irrelevant really because i know it will be a knocking piece anyway, well done yet again bruv a good friend and a wonderful talent within our community

What do you mean by a jazz break? I believe you can't change what runs in your veins, King, jazz is inevitable. That's the beauty of musicians like you; it's become part of your very nature, and escaping it seems impossible, thank God.
The track is fantastic, with each instrument playing its part beautifully. I'd love to hear more of the vocals, theyre playful and exotic.
Best wishes, Anthony

As I listen to this, I can't help but stop and appreciate how each and every instrumental voice is so perfectly produced, how every sound is presented with such pristine quality. Oh, and the song is pretty great, too ! (lol)

reminds me of an anime or game soundtrack. anime maybe cowboy bebop, game maybe ridge racer. i think youd like their soundtracks maybe give them a listen. good one
