This was done for a class. I had to find a Berklee band and produce one of their songs. This session was a Live-to-2, which means that we had to get the sound & performance we wanted on one take. Intense! The band was The Grand Tangent with guest Jack Shenker on hand percussion. Check out their site for more awesome music: www.myspace.com/thegrandtangent

Here is the song “Transition”:

Hello all! I am in the process of tweaking the website. You can now leave comments and other fun stuff. I am contemplating a total redesign as I am doing these small tweaks… If you see something that is out of place, it’s probably broken because I am changing it. Cheers!

Ok, so I seem to love to make my projects way more complicated than I need to. This is for Jazz Harmony 4 class. I had a list of 10 things I needed to put in my final song project, and I succeeded doing so, but without the jazziness. This is a ROUGH ROUGH ROUGH initial ALPHA TESTING TESTING TESTING 1…2…3… mix. Hope you enjoy.
