2022 Multi-Instrumental Jams!

An enthusiastic musician shares their latest musical creations enlivened by various influences, from Latin jazz to ambient tunes, highlighting selected favorites with a star. An invitation to explore these jams is extended, coupled with an honest heads-up about some intonation issues in the strings and vocals, and a call to visit their SoundCloud channel for more.

Hey everyone! Hope all is well!

Here’s some musical doodles I’ve been working on in the new year!

The ones with the * (star) in front are my favorites.

Best wishes to everyone in the new year! (Podcast 8 – Ideas for Musicians & Best Wishes for 2022!)

Warning: There’s some serious intonations issues for the strings and some of the singing 🙂

Cello Piano Doodle

Warning some very “juicy” notes on cello haha

* River – Pat Metheney/Chick Corea Inspired Jam (Jan 19, 2022)

This is sort of an attempt at somewhere between latin jazz and jazz “samba” – I’m still very much learning how to play the drums and bass on this – probably would better with more of a quarter note bass line (with 2 & 4 accented) instead of just the 2 & 4 – when the groove starts in.

I’d probably also change up the snare/brush pattern – it came through on the recording more than I thought it would, etc

But it was fun to make and hope you enjoy!

Early Morning Super Chill Jam (E Piano + Acoustic Guitar) Jan 22, 2022

This is an attempt at that sort of super chill electronic music that you sometimes hear – more minimalist – but hopefully interesting and melodic too! Also, working on what acoustic percussion would work with this, etc 🙂
