Description : Final Unmastered [Draft]
Conceptually this is about embracing both the highs and lows in life, realizing that each is impossible without the other, and the space in between is much richer than the level places without such experience. All loops and live playing are mine except one drum loop by planetjazzbass and the seriously effected santur melody which comes from the Deepest India sample pack. Bass/guitar loops made with DSK BassZ VSTi in a West African style.
Draft 2 - extended the length, and worked on creating the spaces for upcoming ambient additions. This "instrumental" version will probably undergo one more recording session before I attempt to master it.
Final Draft - took it back to under 3 minutes for a "radio version." Lots of tweaking (especially to the accent drums and melody track).
All comments, criticisms, and suggestions welcome.

Description : Updated 9/23/24. This is a progressive fusion flavored jazz number. I called on fellow Looperman DISCIPLINE to season this composition with that FIRE GUITAR, and he did! Let me know your thoughts on this one. Enjoy.

Description : Now on youtube: youtu.be/0RYfA4iCsSA, soon out on my upcoming album "Step by Step"!
==============
Inspired by a track of Pseudoble. I was noodling along to his track "I wish I didn't know" (which is awesome) and had the words "Snow in Athens" in my head. This with the smooth jazz/fusion atmosphere led me to this track with a sort of Steely Dan feel.

Description : This track is built around the repetitive lead guitar line which I have previously incorporated as an intro for the rocker track "Sweetheart Runner" by LM user TinyFinger whom I have helped in arranging, mixing and producing his song. This extended session was a good oportunity to test some new equipment....Thanks to Tiny for not being mad about it...:)^^

Description : Psychedelic blues hip hop with lead banjo and acoustic resonator slide guitar. Acoustic drum kits, fat basslines, soaring filtered strings, some strong Eastern elements (from guitar and strings), some dub and funk from the bass and drums and a bit of rocking electric guitar. Very unusual piece of music and a trip like no other I've heard. Some of it is like a dark, deep Southern delta blues track over a hip hop and dub backing. All played and programmed by me, no loops used.

After a quite turbulent long travel we’ve reached a totally unknown planet which is mostly covered with clouds. As we pass over it we can see parts of rivers through the clouds that come out of the dark rocky surface in some places. So the whole scene is alternating textures of white, dark gray and silver flashes. Unfortunately there’s no chance to land anywhere so we just pass, wonder and travel on …

Description : Real acoustic, electric and bass guitars played by me. Drums are loops and programmed MIDI. Played piano and synths. Lots of layers and delay. A gated moog, organ, my recorded finger-snaps and a reversed bass guitar effect that sounds like throat-singing. Three movements, divided by moments of calm. Thoughts and feedback are welcome.

Description : Return To Forever was a group that started my love of fusion jazz and this is my attempt to cover their 1976 track, “The Romantic Warrior. I know I wore out several inceptions of this album from LP, cassette and 8 track. The original track was over 10 minutes long, so I abridged it some. Hope you like and download.

So, Stay blessed and let's keep the link!
Thanks for your awesome contributions!
The track is just pure pleasure for the ears, my friend, well conceived and well executed.

You never seem to amaze me when I listen to your music and I can certainly appreciate all that went into making this. Ableton is quite the toy, so much fun and creativity happens when using it.
Great track Sean, always a pleaure!
when I listen to your music it feels like a journey through your mind, and I can't imagine a more personal way to meet someone ...
that's why I love your music that much!!!
peace, rei
I was also VERY pleased to hear some even newer melodic phrasing and arranging. Then I read dungbeatl heh. Definitely the happier side of things!
hehe, interesting. The examined life. I don't do that enough.
If I were too, I think I would probably be stuck around the black keys (sounds like Db major?) and those congos right at 2:25. :)
What was the nature of getting old? You told me that one time.. We are born and time takes forever, and then we get older and time seems to go at the speed of a blink of an eye.
Lol.. I can't believe it man.. You are a powerful force in this world. This music is you.
Hey had to come and listen to this version after hearing the Jump in the waters mix, have to say that this is a good version too, but I think of the 2 I like the remix, maybe the water and the little child, good tribal beat here, still to me has a little India sound about it with the synths and fx's used, mate as I said before I am in AWE of what you acheive in your tunes, always a pleasure to hear your talent in progress, another fav'd piece from you my friend...Peace and massive respect...Estefano...
I'm really impressed with this song, I like what you've done with all the sounds, too many for me to count :P
Ste :)
Oh yes, very melodic piece of fusion, this has some great depth and the percussion is tough, definite sense of equilibrium even if you feel you haven't achieved it yet... its there.
Had to hit this up twice, second listen i can here more sounds starting to tease out, alot of things happening here, another mix of traditions only you can pull off. looking forward to the final draft though this sounds complete.
Nice one.
Well, I love it!
Shojo
Nice easy listening.
Peace...
zappo
Very nice fusion,It is interesting how much a lot of elements heard in track!I feel you have worked on this track least a month, sounds very complicated,from the excellent drums to nice chilling indian vibe!
As I said a lot of elements, but excellent and well arranged sounds!
Can not wait to hear next draft!
Great work!
The Examined Life is also such a great title... it immediately sketches this image in the mind of open fields and industrial landscpaes... opposites, yet harmoniously drawn together.
i think once you add in the ambient sounds it's going to sound even more awesome. love it!
I'm going for "the river of life" as an ambient motif now. Naturally, streams and rivers are too full of white noise to work, so I'm using gentle surf instead which emphasizes the wax and wane metaphor. I suspect I'll really need to distinct versions of this one before I'm done, to satisfy the two directions it really wants to go. Thanks so much for the review, Minette. I'm so pleased you like this!
This is great stuff and for me a new fave of yours - nice work Sean!
Cheers, Jamie.
Those drums really flushed out the track
Imma liking where you going with this
I LUV the way you captured the essence of
the highs and lows with that melody
Imma stay tuned for an update
I would fav this but me phone
just won't LET ME!
imma have to fav it on me laptop later
^.^
Much Respect from LA
