JAZZstanbul / 1st track from 1st album

I happened to listen to this track from 2019 and still liked it. It got a bit better after remastering.
It's got some old timey apps all right. IFretless Sax, BeatHawk trombones, Thumbjam Cello and a piano/bass part I played on a Kawai MP11se while I was in Turkey.

I tried to sub a SWAM sax but, frankly, it lost that quirky feeling. So here is a listen into my quirky, murky past. I hope it still stands up.

  • I can see why you still like it. I’m not sure if it’s my headphones but it sounds like the mix is a bit hot. I got a little bit of distortion in some of the low end but that didn’t detract from my enjoyment at all. I always enjoy your bass parts. Never boring, always adding something to the mix.

  • @MadeofWax, I agree, the mix sounds hot. The bass comes through well at 4:30, IMO.
    I mixed this using a pair of AudioEngine A5+bt speakers. Perhaps don’t know my way around them. Will check with headphones.

    The bass patch is from a keyboard split on the Kawai MP11se I was playing at the time.

  • Not bad for the first track from an up and coming young chap… agree about the distortion (and the quirky trombones) but the music makes up for it 👍

  • Truly, magnificent and melodic jazz composition!
    I am loving this with my morning coffee!
    And the artwork is so cool!!!
    Always love and enjoy your production, Mike!!!
    Thank you!

  • @GeoTony, indeed, distorted and quirky. That’s pretty good much how it feels these days.
    @ReneAsologuitar, what kind of coffee do you drink? It seems to keep you in a great mood, bro.

    It is so film noir with great sax lines and piano harmonies, my kind of music, but this deserves a better mix, frenq

  • Thanks @Frenq. Maybe I’ll give it another try!

  • I’d love to hear the SWAM Sax or Flugelhorn on the solo part.
    “Sensual Sax” is just too cheesy and stuck in the uncanny valley for my tastes… it has a vibrato from the 1930’s that no one used after 1950 unless they were making a musical joke.

    Maybe a whole album of different mixes of this project to show the power of MIDI to re-jigger an ensemble.

  • In my business we have an editors term… “Stet”. Let stand as-is. The music is very good. Don’t sweat the details. Nice one, old boy.

  • @McD actually, it’s iFretless Sax, but point taken. I’ll post a track with SWAM Sax shortly.
    Thx @Paulieworld. Pls give a listen to the SWAM version when I post it.
