Which
is why I suspect Kris is going to have a hard time finding a taker, because
he's essentially asking someone else to write his album for him. But you never
know.
Well, I had a few takers in the first 10
minutes after I send the message, and I expect many more, so I'm not sure what
this reflects on your comment. I expect this to be a collaboration, not
just someone laying down a foundation and me adding the icing on the cake.
Honestly, if I was capable/willing to
come up with a CD-length collection of booty-shaking beats and bass lines in
the latest dance genre, the first person I would be calling to play on it
would NOT be a musician who wanted "to portray a serious representation of
jazz influences creative music over popular rhythm." Nope. I would be
auditioning attractive female singers, cutting a single, and shopping
it.
That would be really inspiring. Do it!
I'm sure you will sell millions of copies, since no one appears to be
combining booty shaking beats and female singers. Nope...that's a rarity in
the music scene for sure. ;-)
Kris, if I were you, I would look in to getting
some of the latest/greatest sample CD's and use those. Maybe you colud augment
the tracks with a live rhythm section after you've laid down your own
playing.
Been there, done that, man. Fuck, it's not a matter of me
not being able to do the shit myself, but about the collaboration with another
person. You missed the point, I'm afraid. I like to colloborate
with other musicians, not sit in my basement and create shit in a vacuum. Making music with other people,
imo, is a beautiful thing. I produces a product that each person could never
do on their own. Chemistry.
