I'm loving the rhythms on this one! Modern tribal music! Really nice natural soundscapes! Great guitar riffs! Cool funky bass line! A very fun track! Faved for sure!

Dude, you are on another level! The GEESE man the GEESE!!!!!

You know, sometimes trying to find the right adjectives to describe something this good is nothing more than an exercise in futility. In those rare cases where I am speechless, I let my slack jawed, drool covered chin do the talking.

I seriously don't think you are mortal.

I swear that was a goose in there.

At this point, I can only stand and applaud....

and wipe my chin.

I am simply in awe...you are by far the most creative and amazing artist on this site. I swear I have heard this as a soundtrack to a history international program! Very cool.

Really nice one. I'll take time to listen all your productions. But, yet, it's so good that I've prepared my sono Hi-fi, some coffees. I've closed the windows, and I close my eyes to listen to your world.

.......... if you are not a musician,...I am not a human being !

its almost as if your watching a movie or the discovery channel. You create a very nice picture here love that guitar. cool song man!

Wow man, this should be on the Arabica collections, stunning track

Absolutely awesome. This is a seriously wicked piece of music. I can tell you put a lot of thought and work into this piece. It is demonstrated in the quality. Faved and Downloaded.

Hey Dave

What a massive very interesting track, man everyone has beaten me to all good bits :)mate one of best and most enjoyable listens heard for awhile here, right down to the geese at the end, brilliant piece Dave, Thank you so much for sharing dude,instant fav this one,Peace Estefano...

True artestry! This is a masterpiece period. It's like listening to an audio story where your imagination paints the scenes that the music is guiding you towards (does that make sense). WTF is that parrot thing! Dave you are one mad buggar adding a f*$£ing Emu lol....Wonderful track mate with beautiful production.

Cheers Slap...

The geese... Wow. I love this.

Hi planetjazzbass,this is a very unique and 'out there' composition.The urgency of the beat,tempered by the ambient and stark contrasting sounds make this track very engrossing.Finely woven sonic textures and a well balanced mix/recording.Superb stuff. peace and goodwill mate...by the way,whereabouts in Melbourne are u located,I'm out at Skye (near Frankston)cheers

This is the first thing I thought of after the first 45 seconds or so! "This is freaking Amazing"

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish (1984, ISBN 0-345-39183-7) is the fourth book of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series written by Douglas Adams. Its title is the message left by the dolphins when they departed Planet Earth just before it was demolished to make way for a hyperspatial express route, as described in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The phrase has since been adopted by some science fiction fans as a humorous way to say "goodbye" and a song of the same name was featured in the 2005 film adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Arthur Dent has randomly hitch-hiked his way through the galaxy and is dropped off on a planet in the middle of a rainstorm. He quickly realises that he appears to be in the centre of England on the planet Earth, even though he had previously witnessed it being destroyed by the Vogons. Furthermore, while he has been gone for several years, it appears only a few months have passed on Earth. He manages to hitch a ride with a man named Russell, who is driving home his sister Fenchurch (Fenny for short). Russel explains that she had become delusional several months earlier shortly after a worldwide incident involving mass hysteria over the "hallucinations with the big yellow spaceships" (Vogon Ships). Arthur also learns that all the dolphins disappeared shortly after that event. Arthur becomes curious about Fenchurch, but they reach his home before he can ask more questions. Inside his still-standing home, Arthur finds, among a pile of junk mail, a gift-wrapped bowl inscribed with the words "So Long and Thanks for All the Fish" which he then uses as a fish bowl for his Babel Fish. That night, Arthur cannot help but consider that Fenchurch is somehow connected to him and to the Earth's destruction, and finds that he still has the ability to fly whenever he lets his thoughts wander.

love that sample with the people in it did u get that from freesounds.com if u know about that site.

anyway the track picks up quickly and got my bones moving so thats a plus man

love the gutiar and etinic feel u got here jazz good track

A fresh aproach to include instruments not usually found in this type of sound, with a bonus of a cinematic seasoning...GREAT!

Awesome work Dave....the beats had a unique filtered effect I am curious what you used there....you are the Pro Hart of fusion my friend

So going for a more Classical approach these days I see (lol). My god man, this is perhaps the most original and provocative thing I've heard in the last year (perhaps more).

Heavy Ethnic? Hybrid MetaJazz?

You haven't rattled the cages of genre here, you've undermined the foundations. Amazing.

Not often you'll find me at an utter loss for words, but at this moment language is totally failing. I'll be back with a post-script here, as the attempt will have to be made. I am totally blown away.

Added to favorites.

Really cool, you really don't need a twelve string bass.
I got so into it I struck up a freindship with one of the geese.
kudos dude, another brilliant track.

You created exactly what I like and what I try to create a long time but still with imperfect results..
It reminds me your Chipped Bhudda in "chill" sounds..you are master man..but that everyone knows:-)

Not what I was expecting at all, this has a very unique sound to it. I think what really sets this track apart from being a common track is the violin/viola?, the sounds that come from it are very original. Did you play the instrument/vst, or was it a loop/sound sample already created. Anyway, great track, really enjoyed it, thanks for uploading!!!

I simply love your music Dave!!!
every time I listen to one of your tracks you take me on a journey through your mind, I can't imagine something more personal than that ...
awesome!!!

peace, rei

Hey Dave. What a fantastic soundscape. A cornacopoeia of tribal tones in a groove that is infectious. I can evision just by listening the actual views of the river, it's landscape around it. This is definately up there with "Magic Carpet" as one of my favorite tracks of yours. The bass playing is superb as always and blends with the other instruments and loops in an execellent arrangement and production. Bravo bro and congrats ! - Bilbozo

A miracle of influences in this track.
masterwork of your FEELINGS.
your ART IS Planetjazzbass, and Planetjazzbass is your ART.
I ENJOY YOUR ART....... no..... I LOVE YOUR ART

cheers:::: MATEY ZAPPO......

This is a nice piece, a very well put together piece. I want to get in my kayak now and paddle up the crazy Euphrates, lol. Nice production, interesting sounds make a nice soundscape, just close your eyes and take the trip!!

dl and fav! thanks!!

Shines like gold and sparkles like diamonds. Nice fuse of genres and elements. Cool work planet. Like the strings. Very great listen. Thanks!

Super track! It really does convey the feeling of a river journey heading for the persian gulf. Great use of North African rhythms and acapella's and the sonic pastiche including geese
(a group who have previously been under-represented in modern music) is a stroke of genius. Superb!!!

this is frickin awesome! Love love love the drums - and love the interplay between the guitar and strings - and it IS fusiony!! Great work here!!! And love the breakdown dynamix - could go on and on and I'd still be plugged in!!

Great Track. I felt like I was right there sailing on the river. This is a work of art. I love the trip down the Euphrates.
Also Thanks for the ride.

This is really cool dude, Death to MTV, Long live experimental music haha! Keep up the good work!
