This track is about 35 years old. In 1990 I was still in school living at home. My trumpet teacher took me to a Miles Davis concert. It blew me away. After that I started composing/recording jazz songs like I heard that night. I had a Tascam multitrack recorder and a Korg keyboard at home to use and mixed down to a Nakamichi cassette deck. Was just getting serious into jazz and composing/recording back then. I rediscovered my old recordings a couple years ago and have been restoring some using iPad audio tools to clean/beef them up. The Brusfri plugin did a great job removing tape hiss. This track may be from 1991, not 100% sure, but it’s still old, and I guess I am too now.
5 seconds in I can tell this is gonna be a story.. Nice comp...I don't hear alot of Trumpet players. Enjoyed the irregular rhythms..out of the box...yeah. Good job
Surprised how well some of those old tapes held up. You can hear a little tape wrinkle around the 2:30 mark, couldnt fix that. I've restored some more of these songs, will post a few more that aren't too bad. I was so fortunate to have a father who encouraged me in music and helped me get equipment to explore music making like this back then.
