Hi Will,

This truly is stunning to listen to. You have a wonderful ability to orchestrate with sounds that complement one another really well. Your harmonic progressions shine and your production leaves me thinking, "Wow... the clarity of this is exceptional... how does he do it?"

First-class listening from beginning to end.

All the best,
Noel

Will,

Very cool!
Your way to make the jazz sound is amazing.
The guitar solo is wonderful.
Great choice of RT.
At the same time I miss the lyrics and the melody.
I can't help but praying the robot will just work out next time.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Will
The title of this one had me intrigued and, like David, was disappointed that there indeed was no singing robot smile
Enjoyed the smooth listen!

"Will Josef"...

Your composition, "Lazy Jazz..." has that luxuriantly languid, softly soulful, after-hours feel that only the genre of jazz seems equipped to articulate with such coolly emotional expressiveness.

Your progression brings out the absolute best of the Real Track artists you chose to perform the song.

All in all, it's a moody, romantic and quietly memorable listening experience.

Hi Shigeki and Joanne,

I appreciated that you listened and commented. I tried hard to get the vocals to work but it just didn't sound good. Will try again later.

Thanks for listening!

Will,
Please seduce that robot! We want a singing robot!
Acoustically very pleasant arrangement. Chording is tricky, but goes into ears smoothly. Mixed top notch! Enjoyed it.

Thank you for sharing!

Hi Will! Man I love this tune you put together! Yes I could imagine a sultry Jazz vocal applied to this but it stands on it's own without it! Thanks, Torrey

You put together a sensational group of musicians.

Both the Sax and Guitar parts played in the cracks perfectly.

Real nice, no question.

I almost missed this one...
Glad I didn't...
Smoky & cool...
Sounds like a jazz piece that would fit quite well in a film noir movie...
I enjoyed it!
