The Smooth
Jazz Project In 2003 AcoustiMedia began production
on an album featuring a unique, historically literate form of “smooth jazz”
that offers something to both the mind and attitude. We’re now unveiling the fruits of that
labor in multiple stylistically diverse sound clips. Groove It – A sample of the debut cut off the album:
a tight funk groove featuring organ, horns, guitar and vocals and mixing
elements of straight ahead song writing, instrumental melodies and open-ended
improv. Brother Ray – With a rich blend soprano sax, flugel horn and electric guitar, this is our tribute to
the late, great Ray Charles. It’s not
a Charles type tune per se, but its smooth trip through a spiral of funky
harmonies has the same mellow vibe Brother Ray sought to exude. Debuted on line on 6/10/04 with our
fondness and memories. Something At Seven – For a short time, we’re offering the
entire “Something at Seven” track for download! This asymmetrical blend of fusion, South
American rhythms, Flamenco sounds, and a full horn section is just this side
of typical, but in the best possible way. |
