The intro actually sounds a bit like 60's psychedelic I thought. But then quickly goes into the undeniable 60's surf sound like it's straight off of a Ventures' album.
You put together a great track. The end result is upbeat and super fun to listen to but I can tell how much work went into arranging and producing.
Something you don't hear every day! What a pleasant surprise. Made my morning :) I faved
Thanks allot, RW. Glad you like it. Right...My stuff is not what you will hear much on Looperman. Even my collabs with Franco (Ferryterry) is a genre you seldom hear, here.
That's wonderful, Steve. I'm honored that I had a small part in helping you discover another style of music.
Jazz has many styles, as does rock, so if you like rock, you can listen to more jazz-rock styles like Blood, Sweat & Tears and Chicago, or fusion like Return to Forever, Chick Corea, and Stanly Clarke. Good luck!
I absolutely love this track. I got into Louis Prima years ago and we played lots of standards in my band, Vince Guaraldi to Dave Brubeck and more so I can completely get into all these styles of jazz, blues, swing and dixieland. You did a great job mixing them all together and making it all make sense. You are quite talented Scott, great one here!
Thanks allot, Wayne. You're kind words really made my morning!
Yeah, I was exposed to allot of jazz and big band in my youth and played it whenever I could, even when my friends were playing rock. Than I was exposed to classical. My friends would come over with the latest Led Zeppelin or Who album and I would be listening to Mussorgsky or Art Blakey. I often hear someone hear say, "I don't like jazz, but I like your track." They don't think they like jazz because they don't listen to it! But I digress.
What completely mental track!!!!!! So wonderfully put together and it all flows really well. Great guitar work and the arrangement is excellent. Love it!
Modern production is tying together a history lesson for my ears. This is what fusion jazz is all about! Bass funk riff is pretty epic. It's like the evolution of man poster where the left side is a chimp and the right side is the modern human. Your chimp side is pretty wise already though. I swear this is all meant as a compliment. The track is very good. cool mixing. Pure swank.

Awesome Jazz Track,
hell i love this Wah Guitar Sequence´s,never listen to Jazzmusic (not my style, i thought)till i listen to your Track.Great Inspiration Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,DRO
Thanks allot, Destero. Glad I can broaden your horizons a bit. I love the early funk styles, so allot of my jazz tracks will have these element combinations. If you like this track, check out some of my others. Many have the same feel.
Heck yeah! That beginning 50 sec had me listening like a deer caught in the headlights beam. Cool how the track evolves into the next stage. Great drums especially at that break at 2:34. The guitar after that talking some nice expressions. The brasses used worked well in this track. Here at 3:35 bringing back that great sound was a very nice thought. Very nice overall, my favorite parts about this one is the 1st 50 sec and at 3:35 til finished. That is the reason I keep listening. Thanks for sharing Scott, I like this style of jazz mix from you most. Be cool! Peace.
You have the gift for your concepts, are a great musical truth ....
Again I am impressed by your achievement.
There is only you know how to do that.
In short, it's great and very authentic ....
Gotta love that guitar sound in the beginning, the track itself is pretty cool though I am not really a jazz fan I still liked what I heard here. Offers a interesting combination of sounds.
I'm glad you can appreciate music outside your preferred genre. I have found that jazz will challenge me more than other styles, which is why it's one of my favorite styles.
Thanks so much. Glad you're finding my stuff interesting. I've just started checking out some really, really old jazz and have been putting my own spin on some. The crackling is always there on the old 78 records, so gave it a little authenticity. Since you like this, check out 'Django's Revenge.' It was my first in the really old style.
Be Cool, is so cool....the mesh of different styles gel together so well. It shows the producer thoughtout the process before in this cleverly crafted Jazz offering to our Looper Family, I myself found it refreshing, and it's uniqueness very appealing!
Very cool intro, love the vocal track and that funky jazz bass. Horns are so expressive, been trying them out a little more lately. Very professional sounding mix, well done! Fun track, upbeat and great to listen to on a hot day at the beach!
This is great once it gets going, The intro was nice but when the beat kicks in it yeally gets you up and moving.
It's very contemporary and i like the way it comes in little bursts of various instruments.
The vocal is great. Is that from this site?
The Bass is insane, the guitar is funky and i even noticed a little bit of acid synth going on from time to time, the sax is superb and the whole arrangement is just superb.
A very specific adaptation to your "trademark" .... you always explore with great talent the music of another era. Again I am surprised by the audio quality of your realisation .... I am with you in the recording studio. This is really great .... Chapeau bas.
Bonjour, Dan. Yes, I do love the music of an earlier era and it pretty much shows up in most of my creations. Since I can't find much new stuff to listen to anymore, my creations give it too me.
well let me be the first to commenT & moves his feeT ...
the way U've orchestrate Bass & chorus & drum is amazing , this vocalisT (who is she ?)sings so good & that altration happens nicely & well around 2:46....another nice tune of yours which i enjoyed.___B

My fav part is 2:35 to 3:11. After the cool heavy drum beat, it sounds like it goes into a 70's TV cop drama theme. Excellent.
If you're into 70s TV drama styles, check out 'Spies Like Us' on my page. It was created just for that genre.

I'm going through my old tracks and noticing I'm finding alot of comments I haven't replied to. My apologies for this quite long delay, my friend.
Anyway, along with my apology, I give thanks for all your kind words, now and in the past. You're a true pro!
