Hi all, Now that I have more time I composed this tune. Can't really define the genre (acid jazz, jazz hip hop..). Styles used : Jazzhop.sty (Part A) Torment.sty (Part B) Guitar used : Fender Mustang 1966 Effects : THU-FULL BIAB 2020 (I received my 2022, haven't installed it yet) Mixed in Reaper Hope you will enjoy it!

Absolutely fantastic.
Excellent guitar playing and a spot on mix. Loved the video also.
I would call this smooth jazz. YMMV
Loved it.

Nothing to do with intelligence. I go to sleep if left unattended for 15 minutes.

Great, you sound like a guitarist I like by the name of RJ Ronquillo. Awesome session guy. Nice playing WITH the sax. Terrific work!

Mr. Napoli...
There is nothing like watching/listening to a musician who knows how to play his/her instrument! Your performance came off as soulful and deep-feeling.
Forget about defining the genre. It's simply memorable music with a mellow groove and a laid-back feel that is perfect for repeat listening.

Jazz hop. The rhythm is too Latinate/hip hop to be smooth jazz to my ears. I rather preferred the non sax parts.
Cheers

Nigel Thanks! I said that to my friend too! Yeah I can imagine this theme being sung. A deep female voice like sade! Thanks again! Jazz hop. The rhythm is too Latinate/hip hop to be smooth jazz to my ears. I rather preferred the non sax parts. Thanks Ray! Jazz hop sounds right! Masterful playing. You make it seem so effortless. Well done! Thanks! Actually it is a LOT of sweat! Lol Thanks again!

Such good tone! And the melody is perfect and perfectly played, Angelo. The sax was a nice touch. I'm with Mario on the Smooth Jazz, but not a fan of categories. I'd put this one in the class of Really Good Instrumentals.

Sounds great. Love the guitar tone.
My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.
