    Artist description
    New collection of original recordings that range from Smooth Jazz to Jazz Fusion to New Age. The multi-tracking concept (recording each track live) gives a fair amount of latitude in terms of what is included in each composition and what style is portrayed. I tend to compose symbiotic counter-melodies which build upon each other, with none of the parts overplaying. My overwhelming concept is to use simple progressions with melodies and ensemble work that really excell!!! My favorite instruments include a Roland R8 drum computer, Fender/Rhodes piano, a vintage Fender Jazz Bass, Korg , DSS-1 keyboard, Bach, Keilwerth and Yamaha horns, misc. percussion instruments. I have been playing trombone and the electric bass for some time. I just picked up the sax about 18 months ago. I usually record tracks live as single takes and sometimes finish a song in two or three hours (while I still have the momentum). Enjoy! Any comments are appreciated. Thanks!
