Hey, this is a video of me recording my latest efforts at contemporary jazz-fusion. A lot of "third stream" influence, as well as some...dare I say...metal? Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3clJ6gdN59w

There is another thread about whether anyone creates any original music any more. Well this was certainly proof that some people are not following old cliches and are being genuinely creative. |

|  | THIS HAND OF MINE GLOWS WITH AN AWESOME POWER! | | Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: USA; Mitchellville, Maryland | | I knew I would love it from the first note, and you know what? I sure as hell did! I don't think I could explain how much I enjoyed this song. I smiled the whole way through. I'm really, REALLY hoping that this is an album/EP effort because this is definitely a good thing that I can't get enough of. Amazing stuff, man, you've just gotten a new subscriber Quote:

Thanks, though, that's a huge compliment! The nuance in his treatment of functional harmony is amazing.

BTW who made your piccolo bass?
