50 Second Shameless Self Promo

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share a project I've been challenging myself with called "Soundcloud Sundays." Each Sunday I put on a backing track and jam, then post whatever happens onto Soundcloud. It feels very raw - I choose a random backing track and am not allowed any do-overs or edits except fading in or out. This makes it a great exercise in phrasing and not being afraid to post even when something isn't perfect.

He's a great vibe player! You know of him?

Here's a track from Soundcloud. There's more there

A little warmup and fun today playing on “How Deep Is the Ocean” by Irving Berlin. Pretty tight quarters in the hand percussion room at Berklee.
