"Quarantini, Anyone?"

Happy New Year, Forum Friends!

I made this little instrumental by manually creating the bossa guitar pattern, then adding midi elements for EPiano, Vibe, and Flute. I used the RT's for BossaLewis/Brushes and Bossa Acoustic Bass and Flute Solo. I created the vibe solo by using the Midi Solo tool and finding some phrases for vibe and guitar, then applying them to my midi vibe track. No BIAB style was used.

Hope you enjoy it! (Hic..!)

Tano,
Unusual and fun! Very offbeat stuff. Liked the usage of FX.
There was whole bunch of Eastern European cartoons that I watched as a kid, studios used professional jazz bands to record soundtracks, at times very abstract. This is what it reminded me of, kind of story telling tune. Thank you for sharing, and Happy New Year. We surely need the next one to be a happy one, so we can switch drinks from Quarantini to Friendsfordinne.

Misha.

You certainly have some creative juices flowing there, Tano. What seems at first quite random actually has a well thought out underlying structure. Very interesting! HNY to you.


My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile smile

A very creative quarantini, Tano! Love those vibes. Leonard Feather once likened Paul Desmond's sax playing to a dry martini. This tune is dripping with delight and making good use of a bad situation. Cheers, man!!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Tano ...

I love these somewhat peculiar jazz innovations. I have a few I've done myself. Posted a couple of them here many years ago. The creativity needed for a project like this is rather substantial. And this is truly marvelous! It sounds so simple; but as we know, it really isn't. The forethought, imagination, and preparation for this type of wonderful tune is considerable. Very nice, indeed! Loved it!

Maybe I'll post my quirkiest one again. It's called "Sneaky Pete".

Happy New Year, my friend!

Alan

Very cool backtrack and sound effects. Loved the how the melody just hung a little behind the beat. Kept me focused on the melody. Loved the instruments playing back and forth with each other. Well done

Way Cool! I (Janice) keep having visions of lots of 1960's movie scenes where there is cool music playing in a party scene or a bar and the lead man is debonair and the woman is oh, so chic. This sounds sophisticated and happy and, try as I might, I cannot get Bud to dance with me. wink

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

I really liked the discordance that permeates through part of the song. Keeps the listener entertained.

A catchy melody, generating lots of interest.
