Hello
I used a style where I really like the rhythm, drums and bass.
I also put a lot of sounds from synthmaster 1 and 2.
I did the guitar solo and interspersed the real track style electric piano solo.

Nice jazz. And the mix is good. Your Solo is well executed.

Hi Laurent.
I know nothing about engines apart from the roaring sound but your mix is good.

V12, and man you keep the pedal to the metal without giving us any of that metal genre. Thank you. This sounds like a lot of fun to play. You choose the oerfect band. Your guitar sounds exceptionally good. I really like how you fashioned all the pieces to add just the right touch. Very pleasing mix, too.


Enjoy whatever happens!

I love this uplifting jazzy sound and your guitar work is great.
It may have 12 cylinders, but it is power that is under control and directed professionally.
Thanks for sharing this.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Well, I think your song purrs more like a Bentley Continental GT (technically a W-12) than a Ferrari, but that's just me. I do LOVE your song! Great backing track and really inventive solos throughout. That's a neat trick with the electric piano solo, I should think of stuff like that more. Great job!!

I always prefer the sound of a V8 to a V12, but that shouldn't obscure the fact that I really like the backing track you created for the various solos, especially the guitar solo sounds really good.
Well done.

That V12 is purring right along. Is that a pic of your car engine? smile Excellent work. I enjoyed the song and the guitar solo.

Laurent,

Jazz Funk is one of my favorite genres. And you took it to the limit here. So smooth! Powerful, yet soothing - not easy to do. But you did it perfectly!

Loved your guitar work. And I have the full version of Synthmaster and use it quite often - there are some marvelous sounds there!

Thanks for a great listen! This is excellent.

Alan

Another very 60s vibed soundtrack piece, which to me doesn't sound like a BiaB one! On FB I founded the "Music of the 1960s" group in 2017, so if you're on FB you should join! 
