Excellent jazzy song, could be a good one for the soundtrack of a 70's art movie smile Very nice groove with nice stops. Great sound and playing, especially the flute. Instrumentation really works, and that breathing sound (cymbal?) makes this song... breathe.

If I could noodle like that and when it rains (often here this year) I'd have several albums in the can.

Great playing and love that jazzy tone you have going.

Cool arrangement also with the stops.

Fun!!!

You sir, are very impressive at doodling! That's a cools on my book. The guitar work was really cool, and loved the flute.

I have to ask, how did you get such great stops? I get them, but usually in that many I would have one that flops. Teach me your doodling ways if you would please sir.

Great job Mario!

Hello, Mario

Nice jazzy tune!
Frequent breaks are very cool.
I also love that delicious flute groove like Greg.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Some of your "changes" were daring and unexpected, but also musically exciting to hear. They kept me anticipating where the song would go.

The breaks between the verses were playful and fun to anticipate. The Real Drums cymbal work added mist and shimmer to the track's sound. If you hadn't informed us of the instruments you played -- the bass, the guitars and the flute -- I would have presumed they were Real Tracks because of the relaxed feel of your improvisations.

I'd take the word "Doodling" out of your title. It makes it sound as though you were just playing around, but the song doesn't come off like that. It sounds like it was performed by a tight and talented group of musicians who conjured up the feel, the scent, and the taste of...a rainy day.

Sincerely,

bluage (a.k.a. LOREN)


Thanx so much Loren. The drums are not RealDrums. They are MIDI drums.

Thanx for your "If you hadn't informed us of the instruments you played -- the bass, the guitars and the flute -- I would have presumed they were Real Tracks because of the relaxed feel of your improvisations" comment. I know that I am no where as good as those RT pro players but I do have fun playing my instruments.

Thanx Janne. Yes that breathing sound was a MIDI cymbal. Thanx for noticing that.

Thanx J&B. Actually most all of my leads are me just doodling around until I find something that fits.

After you get a verse and/or chorus with the stops where you want them then copy and paste does the rest.

PS - yes I am a very lazy guy!

Wonderful job Mario - and a great usage of the hip hop style. The groove is amazing on this one, and the instrument selection is superb and unique. In particular, the flute fit in perfectly.

Great work and thanks for sharing smile

Hmmmm, I thought I listened to this previously and commented. I must have forgotten to hit submit. Well this gives me a chance to listen again. Really liked the vibe of the tune and especially the flute. Some very nice noodling indeed. Perfect for a rainy day or any other day for that matter.
