Description : This is my first venture in the Jazz Genre- Being not much of a keyboard player I tried this with just loops to come up with a little jazz tune with the emphasis on the keys. Riding down the highway saw a sign 55 MPH thus the name. Hope you enjoy!! Fila

Fila. Loved it out the gate! Movement galore. And what’s up with that break at the 1:20 mark? That Rhodes and kick! This is good, really good. Hoping all is well. Stay safe.

Oh yes indeed! What a track! Really cool playing (some wonderful voicings and riffs), I love the sound your using on the keys. Great drum patterns (I'm still to find/buy some cool bebop/swing beats), just love the ride and rim shot phrases. I say 10/10 for this one baby!!!

Cheers Slap...

Hi there Fila,

Enjoying your jazz tune. Nice use of loops selection. I don't listen to hardly any jazz, but I enjoyed this song very much.

I like the piano sound a lot.
Thanks for sharing it.

Hey MrFila..nice to meet you....just when I thought this place was being overrun with young electronic hip hop dudes(not that there's anything wrong with that)....somebody walks through the front door and restores my faith in good musical appreciation!..lol...Love this groove,it's got all the snappy rhodes sounds and panache' of Miles Davis's 'Bitches Brew'...way cool and a pleasure to the ears..great work...cheers planet :)

Description : Every instrument is performed and recorder live. Piano, double bass, drums.

Instruments Used:
-"WELTMEISTER" upright piano (MADE IN GERMANY in 1938)
-"KAY" upright bass (MADE IN GERMANY somwhere in 1950th)
-TAMA Imperial Star + Pearl OMAR HAKIM snare + Various Ziljian cymbals.

I just put together some old ideas to see if it will work. Some vocals and brass, or guitars is clearly needed. Let me know what you think about it. Tnx

Description : Do not freak out just because this is jazz! There's also blues, rock, funk and a little hip hop in it to break up the deep, chillout jazz sections - gets particularly rocking then funky at the end. Main bassline (the track's foundation) is recycled leftover slide resonator guitar parts detuned one octave to make a slide bass sound. Also features: piano, violin, hammered dulcimer, organ, ethereal pad guitar, bass guitar, jazz/blues/rock electric guitar and multiple programmed acoustic drumkits. This was difficult to make at times as I thought I needed more leads parts eg from sax or trumpet. But I'm happyish with the end result. I expect very little interest in this as it's both jazz and long jazz. But it's also an unusual type of genre-mixing jazz. So, leave your thoughts, good or bad, if you like...

Description : I think it's a late evening song to accompany you for a single drink.
Jazzy in most of the aspects. It is made single handedly so please consider it an experimentation for the thrill of making music.
Hope you will like it.

Description : This track contains only free loops from Stayonbeat.com and several loops from Looperman artists (listed below). I "made a promise" that my next track will be use a lot of jazzy loops - well, i done with this track, for the great sadness of jazz lovers or experts i think - i fear they will never forgive me. :) While my ISP launches my internet out of the Earth system for a long time, i had to face the fact that i dont have too much downloaded jazz loops on my computer, so i think no wonder that this one is sounds like if i smoke some marihuana while making it. But hey, who cares, i like the result - it reminds me the (maybe only) really funny episode of "Breaking Bad", where Pinkman uses some heroin and flyes up with an idiotic smile on his face - that chapter is priceless. :D
I dont think this one needs a vocal, but ofcourse you can use it if you want, and as always, just write and i will give any support as i can. Any feedback welcomed too as always. Enjoy! UPDATE 2015.10.24.: improved audio quality - lower lows, higher highs. Now in 256kbps!

Description : I created a hip hop groove in Logic and decided to duel some Saxophones. I am playing the Baritone sax on the left pan and the Tenor Sax on the right pan.
I added some bells like a boxing match bell to give it a fight drama feel. The hip hop track itself is dope to me. The duel is cool too. Who won?
