A Few Words About The Content
There are 18 cuts in this playlist, tracks 2-3 (Long Story), and 7-8 (In Gratitude) include 2 different tempos to explore a different feel.
All of this material is recorded via MIDI which, at the moment, is the most immediate way for me to capture the basic idea and, in some cases, to mock-up an arrangement. The goal here is to attract and enlist players to sort through these basic ideas – to see what works and what doesn’t.
In this instance, many of these cuts are framed within a “latin-jazz” style or interpretation. I’d like to start there and see where it goes.
As the playlist progresses, the interpretation is less “latin-based” and takes on another shape – still open to further development.
