Description : I made this simple little blue/jazz groove with the drums and Upright Bass.

The BPM is 60 and in 4/4 time and I believe the bass is in Eminor. Enjoy

Like this a lot. Should be played in a smoke filled basement bar where the drinks are tight and the ladies are loose.

LOL... If only this kind of music had the same allure it once had on people. But the ambiance you have described would be most ideal for this setting. Now do you know any good piano/solo brass/solo saxophone VST?

I'd like it better if I could hear the upright bass better, maybe turn it up or the drums down?

Otherwise, good job.

I am in complete agreement with you. I realized that right after I uploaded it. I will definitely go back and really master the mix and maybe add a few things and really work on the melody. Thanks for the critique.

Later,
Erick

It was tricky to get this to sounds right but I was going for a 6/8 drum grove like you guessed, but I wanted it to fit in a 4/4 time signature. You will hear that the snare hit is exactly on the 2 and 4 count. And the kick drum hit is on 1 and 3 with the last hit on the "4 and" count at the end of each measure. Now the ride hits where the most difficult. By making 3 hits per beat. I achieved this by placing the hits on the 1, "2 and", and "3 and" count. Though the third hit I dragged a bit for increased tension and a little style. I hoped this helped and thanks for comments Danke.

Description : One another guy who ordered this track then didn't pay and doesn't respond to my messages.

Boogie crossover (its just a fragment), every instrument is performed and recorder live. Piano, double bass, drums.

Almost 8 hours of work.

Description : Of all the classic Monster tales the Wolfman is definitely one of the saddest. Cursed, and destined to live as both man and monster. During the day he sits alone with his guitar, a prisoner of lonely existence, crying his heart out through his music. Then at night, the beast emerges, and in the dark under a full moon, he cry's as he rips the hearts out of his victims! Such is the life of a cursed bluesman!

Description : This is a tune dedicated to my friend, Nancy, who followed me to the clubs I played at for years, and is still following me with my studio work. Why do I dedicate this to her? Onnacounta cause she's soooooo naughty! She never liked violins, but loved her sax! Here's to you, Nancy. Anyway, this is a little blues track with some nice guitar and sex...oh, sorry, I mean sax.

Enjoy and download away.

Description : A sultry, seductive, and fairly short acoustic blues number. It is an instrumental and only took about 2 hours to write, record, and get a decent mix. Enjoy! Updated: I added some slight echo to the electric guitar and widened the stereo fields of the acoustic rhythm and leads.

The the pushed back guitar on the left is also run thru the mesa. My UNC chapel-hill decision letter is coming out tomorrow and I'm super stressed. Whipped out my guitar and recorded some stuff.

Description : Fresh out of the studio after 10 weeks of deliberating, planning, writing and performing.
This could be classed as Country Blues or Southern Rock...either way I think it may get your toes tapping. So grab your partner and jump on the dance floor with this one.
I am performing the following instruments...vocals, electric guitars, slide acoustic, bass, harmonica, organ. I wrote the following instrument parts in MIDI....drums, percussion, piano, horns. This was a beast to master but I think it turned out okay.
No loops used.

Description : UPDATE 26/01/2014: Improved loads of things in what is probably my greatest chillout alternative blues piece. Ambient, ethereal, groove-based delta slide blues. Contemplative and melodic. Multiple, layered , sometimes shimmering resonator guitar parts with solid, warm synth bass, an ethereal bed of pads (which are actually guitars) and second electronic drumkit to contrast the acoustic kits. I thought this was perfect a few years ago but it wasn't (and still isn't). Now has clearer drums and lots of small awkward bits of guitar have been trimmed. Quite a minimalistic and short piece for me - I don't just keep bringing in new instruments, as I usually do. This should really chill you out...
