Springtime Humus Smell - bossa

By Sorkfot on March 27, 2022 10:20 pm

I've been listening to bossa nova this week, so that's why. I love this time of year when patches of the ground start softening up after a long snowy winter. Mr. Hedgehog will soon be out of hibernation.

Stuff:
Spanish Guitar
Casio MT-65 for bossa nova drums
Claves
Casio DM-100
Precision bass
Korg 01R/W guitar synth
Reaper, no programming this time.

WOW!  The guitar is so good!  I can't believe how awesome all these chords are.  WOW.  How do you learn to play music like this?!?!?!  Sorry I am using way too many !!!!!

This might be the best thing I've heard all year - i'm freaking out.

Thanks! The chords are pretty standard, but the progressions and substitutions in bossa nova have a certain aesthetic  that I'm trying to figure out myself.

Glad you like it!

Fantastically good, this is what music was invented for.

This is so extraordinarily good. Love the lovely vibe and your beautiful guitarplaying. Have to dive into bossa immediately.
