And i couldnt tell.which songs where new,so.i gave em all a listen xp

very impressive stuff.+1

Stars of Centaurus A
&
Piano Collaborations

are two new tracks, I have more but I'll upload them a little later. :)

Piano Collaborations and Piano Mix were so amazing, I love it! Stars of Centaurus A was definitely a good tune as well, but the other songs moved me more.

PPPFFFF




Amazing,really really enjoyed that! the guitars in stars are really really nice,how did you process them? tell me your secrets! mics,preamps,process?? pleaaaase?

Piano Collabs is far beyond awesomeness,the melody is great,the playing is perfect,the feeling...damn!

Respect girl! You really improved a lot! Can i haz your knowledge? pliz?

haha! ok jazzy.thnx

I should really give the Piano tracks a proper name! haha.

@ Alex, hahahaha! Dude! That picture made me giggle :)

Stars of Centaurus A - it's been years since I first messed with this, changing it here and there throughout the time I first started playing guitar and this is how it turned out. I'm using my Luna Fauna Phoenix and my SG in this. I have a firebox - and plugged them into there, recorded using Logic Studio and mastered the sounds there.

Piano Collaborations I messed with in college, a funk bassist played something to me, and asked if I could play it on piano, and if so; improvise. At the time I was really shy and very insecure about my playing so I never got past the first 8 bars! I've messed with that one for years, I play it every time something happens in my life, personally I think it's helped me put that passion into the piece. I love it. :)

At the moment my room is PACKED so it had a really nice, dead sound. Which was great for recording stuff. :)

Besides playing these songs... I HAVE SOOOO MUCH TO LEARN! I can't believe how much there is to learn in music - it's both scary and exciting :) It's also a punch in the face to let me know I really don't have time to slack off. I'm nearly 21 and haven't gotten anywhere yet! D:

Nice work. I wouldn't mind hearing some improvisation over Stars of Centaurus A to break it up a bit. I know you've got it in you!

Just uploaded another track: Corridors of Time (Piano)

Let me know what you think! :D

@ Foogered, what would you like me to do? Improvise with piano, or guitar dude?

I've asked someone already if they could improvise over it, their technique would be perfect for what I'm looking for. :D

Since this is a guitar forum I would have to say go with the guitar!

*Standing ovation* Absolutely great playing and splendid songs. On Stars of Centaurs could need lead, singing or like foogered mentioned.

Great job.

Emp

I am absolutely blown away. I'm currently replaying everything you have there. :-P

I know corridors of time isn't a new song but I love it so much I had to mention it... It's great.

I think Stars of centaurus A does need more melody from either vocals or another instrument, I'd go with piano personally.

Piano collaborations, that's another song isn't it? Who wrote it, what's it called? You play beautifully by the way.

But the name of the song is bugging me ><

Ever thought of using SoundCloud for your music if you don't already? If you were on it I would follow you.

How good is reverbnation? What makes it stand out among competitors?

And do you have any good resources for aspiring pianists?

Is that enough questions?

Your music is amazing btw, *continues to listen*

hahahaha intimidation to the max!

I'm glad you guys all like it :) It's been ages since I posted anything, so figured it was time.

@ DanM, Corridors of Time is new haha, I just uploaded that one this morning.

Piano Collaborations - my old funk bassist played it to me and asked me to work on that one, so I improvised a little. When I first learned it I thought it was his, but as the years past I had a feeling it was from somewhere, I just have no idea where! I called up him just now and asked and he doesn't know. If anyone knows who did the original (and what instrument it was originally on) let me know. :)

I think I'm already on soundcloud - but I can't remember! haha so many websites I've been on trying to get myself herd, I ended up taking a break because I wanted to improve on all the flaws I could hear.

Even now, in Piano Mix I can hear a few mistakes and timing problems.

I should really be asking Jeff to help me get the music on my facebook fan page to be honest!

ReverbNation is really good in my opinion, it tells you where you are on the charts (of your chosen genre) in your town/city/country and you can gain more and more contacts with some brilliantly talented people! I've had two people ask me to sign in their record company in the past 3 weeks. And I've got a fairly tiny fan base right now.

As for Pianists, it comes with study, transcribing, practicing, more study, more transcribing and more practice!

Joe Hisaishi,
Ludovico Einaudi,
Nobuo Uematsu,
Symphony X,
To-Mera,
Jordan Rudess

And sooooooo many more. I guess I'm inspired from every genre - there's always something useful.
Yes, that was a fair amount of questions! haha.

Thanks for listening!

really good jazz, outstanding work!

Thanks Notim :) Glad you like it!

I'll mess with Stars of Centaurus A today, and see what I can come up with :) But I'm excitedly waiting for another friend of mine to improvise over that one :D

However, I think it would be awesome if we made an AGC album. We all work together in various ways. :D (Y)

Someone writes the drums, another plays the backing guitar, another lead, maybe vocals and maybe piano etc. etc.

@Jazz I know piano collaborations was done on piano I recall hearing it on piano played by someone in my school and I think I've heard it on classic fm

Soundclick has charts and shows you were you are although I found when you upload a song it can automatically go into top 100 without any plays, which annoys the mathematician in me.

I'd be interested in an AGC album although right now I have exams and am trying to cut down on what I'm doing and focus. However come June 23rd I'm game :P

I am in awe. I played stars through my cheap speakers and was blown away by the sound. Great recordings and awesome tunes. I hope you make an album, I'm already in line waiting to pick up my copy.

An AGC album would be freakin great.

Yes Jazz, that would be outstanding!!!

Now you got me inspired to try something new.....very cool

I"ll supply anything needed for an agc album,cept vocals,i sound a cat with a broken jaw...

Sounds Great Jazzy,thanks for sharing. Are you looping at all or is it all straight?

Great stuff!

I'd supply drums for some tracks if anyone knows of a way to do them electronically via free software. I don't have a set anymore. :o(

@ Skater, nope, no loops, just a straight run. :)

Thanks for listening guys :D Glad you all like it - I went up in the charts for my city and I'm now 18th! :D Thanks!

@ Btimm, I'm not sure dude, you'd need a mic (a few if you want good quality) if you wanted to record them live. Otherwise, I would have just written my drums in via cubase or logic studio. Where you can get some fairly decent sounds.

@btimm there's free drum software called rhythm rascal, from what I remember it's pretty decent

Thanks DanielM, I'll check it out and see if I can contribute somehow, because Lord knows I can't contribute yet on guitar, lol.

Well you already know how I feel about your piano playing. Wish I would have made that trip to the UK two years ago.

Stars of Centaurus A is a really cool tune. Just relaxing on a summer day in a field, under an apple tree with the old Git. I can imagine some violin over this... Picture David Garrett hehe. Really, really cool tune. Loved the rhythm and subtle changes in riffage. Speaking of which, should you ever come to the dark side (red and black is way cooler than blue/green and brown), I can totally see this turning into a heavy metal epic.

Piano Collaborations is a beautiful tune. Really dug it. Sounds like a piano counter part to some Eric Johnson playing. Great job and as per the usual, great composition. Love the slow blues feel at 1:55.

"Sword of Memory"... Interesting track. I think I'll put it on next time my buddies and are just sitting around drinkin'. Good job.

My favorite... Corridors of Time. Brilliant track and excellent playing. This one is right up there with "Eternity - Memory of Lightwaves".

Rock on!

Jazzy,
These songs..........
Just as I expected.........Wow! Just Wow
You are my hero!
I wish I had just a speck of your talent.
Now, shhhhhhhhhhh I'm going to play them again
and again!
Phip

Love it Jazz!

Hey everyone, I'm bumping this one up... I've got a new set of tracks up - but the main one I want you guys to hear is this... Princess Mononoke - Ash!taka's Theme. (due to the censoring on this site, his name can't be spelt properly.)

Mononoke Hime Acoustic by Missy Chambers

You can listen to my songs from Soundcloud or some others on Reverb Nation - they don't have the same songs on there, so check both out. :)

Wow I really loved it - forgot how much I liked your music so I also followed you on soundcloud :P

Out of interest what do you want to write music for in the future, anime, video games or just general soundtrack?

Also what library did you use for dream of dreams, (Assuming it's a sample library of course)?

Wonderful track. nice thoughtful or maybe dreamylike mood. Well played.

I need to dig up that thread of your piano tunes Jazzy. I remember them being beautiful works of art, but I don't remember names to look them up on soundcloud, hahaha. Time to start my digging.

Pfffft, nevermind, they are in this thread.

Dan, thanks dude! :) And no, everything was made by me, I don't use samples. I make my own and just repeat them. In all seriousness, it's not that hard to make a sample! haha.

Also, I'm hoping to work for games for a few years in Japan (maybe) and then Anime in the future. :) We shall see!

Emp, thanks dude! Glad you liked it! :D

BTimm, hahaha don't worry :D I think almost all of my "published" tracks are on these two websites. Although I have a lot more around the interwebs. I have new piano tracks on there now, too. I hope you'll like them! :)

I know its not that hard but people don't often make their own for orchestral tracks and yours sounded quite nice :P

Pretty mellow track. I just woke up and drove to college but haven't had enough coffee yet... Now I just want to drive back home and get back into bed.

Seriously though, good job, as I think you know. I'll check out the other new tracks later.


Rock on!

Pretty nice melodic lines!! Like it! (and U looks great, hehe)
