Gossip Song

[David Sprouse]

From a musical I wrote in the 80's.  Not really happy with the drums throughout.  And Ozone's master assistant squeezed it. :D:D

Kind of feel like the hero is walking into a dangerous situation here; close? Then the feel changes. 

Gotta watch those “assistants” in Ozone. More so I find with Neutron. Ozone 9?

Ya, ozone 9 master assistant.  I think it's best used to get loudness right, rather than mix right, no?  Thanks for listening.

[Douglas Kirby]

I thought this was a cool jazzy groove - I enjoyed the listen.

[David Sprouse]

Thank you Douglas.  Sometimes  (I've heard) my ideas are kind of dippy;  but they're only meant to entertain.  :D:D

Indeed a cool Cool Jazz sound, or maybe a bebop - Cool Jazz hybrid.  Whatever, it is a cool song.  I particularly liked the duo with the guitar and piano sounds near the beginning.

Enjoyed that David, a slight Henry Mancini vibe at the start there - I had images of the Pink Panther in my head for a minute.

Nice changes and some cool progressions - a really nice feel. Well done.

David, I like the exploration feel to the song, like walking around in an unfamiliar place seeing what's there. Something like that.
Drums were bit too aggressive in one spot. It brought to mind Pink Panther for me as well.

Thanks Freddy.   I need someone to solo over my songs, I'm timid.

Pink Panther theme was one of the first songs I learned on the piano :D:D  Thanks for listening Bjorn, I think I know where you're talking about viz loud drums.

Like a Prog Martini Jazz. Very very interesting. What did you use for drums? They sounded good to me, maybe just a bit more fill programming in certain spots?

You have a very strong sense of compositional style, I can hear it in all of your works I think. 

What was the musical about?

cheers,

Nice smooth Jazz groove, like the brushes on the drum, what did you use?  Thanks for sharing.

Hi David,

Lovely cool Jazz groove to this (kept me looking over my shoulder ;-)  with a great sense of suspense.

Thanks for sharing.

Good Job!

Hi David, cool tune. I really enjoyed the elec. piano changes as well as the brushes on the drums (what did you use for that?). Well done!
