This is an awesome piece! It's not at all what I was expecting, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I didn't hear it before the edits on the sax-breaks, but I can tell that you made the right choice by following DJ's advice.

I really like the chimed intro, and how it continues on through the piece. It sets a good foundation.

The beat is superb as well. It's really quite impeccable in how it seems to fumble, but never drops the ball.

The "Hey" that comes in, and repeats until the end is a nice touch as well. The long slow fade out works here.

Overall, this truly is, even in it's jazziness, a chilled out track!

Awesome, work. Keep it up!
Take care.

Thanks, V. I like the fumble comment :) Thanks for listening and glad it was a pleasant surprise for you. I am glad you mentioned the long fade out. I wanted the fadeout to keep the ear focus till the end. I am glad it carried its weight till the end.

very cool again Ron...that sax is cool again and I know that it's more jazz than rock but there was a band, called Morphine...they used sax as a rhythm instrument with huge riffs...
I'm not saying this is an example to follow but maybe sometimes ...

Great Intro. Mix is also nice and clear. Small Idea. I would occasionally use an Asymmetrical pong on the sax at certain points (sparingly at the end of a Bar) to broaden the mix. The underlying sounds are lush and thoughtful. Nice Work.!

Excellent ambient song with Nu jazz elements, performed with great professionalism. All elements are in perfect balance and the mix sounds clean and present when listening.
Best wishes

ronabo replied 27th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Thank you much for your comments. To hear that the mix sounds clean lets me know I must be doing something right :). Mixing is so hard for me.

Awesome instrument choices. The sax sounds great over the warm tones. 1:52 is an excellent way to bring the sax back. Awesome track.

ronabo replied 25th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Thanks, Heath for your comments and the fav too. I really appreciate your acknowledgment of the 1:52 part of the track when I brought the sax back in. I really wanted it to stand out and so I paused the track for a sec and let the sax find its way to the groove. I am glad it turned out nice.

Thanks again for listening.

Those rhodes pianos are so lush and full of warmth. They contrast so well against the punchy snare and the smooth sax. It all just flows so effortlessly. Glad to see the looperman community booming with so much talent nowadays.

ronabo replied 25th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Thanks, ProdByFetti, I appreciate your comments. I agree the Rhodes piano has that warmth that is unmatched. Love playing the keyboards especially the electric keys. I am glad you mentioned the punch snare... I worked on that a bit. Thanks again, my friend.

Ronabo, now this is definitive smooth jazz bro. Some super tasteful arrangement here. Great job on all the fills and of course the sax is freakin amazing! I dig the bridge and all the lo-fi snippits too. Perfect changeup on the last section. You got it going on brother. I love Jazz and this is Killer stuff man!

Nice track, we need more raw beats in hip hop everything getting too polished. Is that you playing the sax?
