on tuesday I had a very nice jam with Günther on the Rhodes and me with my guitarpedals. this was the basement for this track, which I extended with clarinet, saxophone, flute, harmonica, sitar, edrums and some hiphopbeats I sampled from several EP`s. I ended up with 150 audiotracks, which are up to 4-8 different channels from the microphones or effects, just for a single instrument in mono. It was a monstereffort to find the right parts and to balance, EQ and master them. It took me the whole weekend. I did not know what the song would be like in the end, but I was going for a journey through different genres and spaces. You can hardly hear the initial music from the jam anymore, but who likes, can listen the Wilcox-Raw-Cats recording on polycarboate on weeklybeats. there you find some minutes of our session. I am grateful to be able to play with Günther, who has over 70 years practise on the jazzpiano. The windinstruments just sound the way they do, because they have a great jazzfloor underneath.
Such gigantic projects like this, I probably cannot make this year again, because my 2 weeks of vaccation is over now and the cliniclife gets me back.

Everything seamlessly sounds like it's one recording. The woodwinds with the rhodes give it that extra space appeal to me. Ooof the drums at 6:12 hit me right in the soul. Excellent work!
