Sign in to disble this ad
I was bored today and I just started noodling and came out with this. Its' just a simple chord progression that I'm going to do in duet with a sax or something. Tell me what you think, but be nice :-p. I know the timing's not perfect (It's kind of free), there arent' too many messups  .. http://dyn.u13.net:6080/host/scott/whaffysong.mp3

The time isn't that bad. During some of the pauses I picture you getting your fingering set for a chord. This will improve with practice (of course). Speeding up and slowing down is okay in music; just as long as it's musical.
Nice work! I really dig it.

sax over it would still be cool |
