Hi guys !
I recently saw Mathiaus Haus in concert at Spring Vibes Session in Wuppertal playing a Musser M 55 with KandK Sound System with Audio Midi Interface. The mix of acoustic vibes and Midi banks was beautiful !
Mathias said to me after the concert that KandK had been cut off the Midi Interface just after it came out, kind of 20 years ago.
I own a Musser M48 equiped with KandK piezo mics. It works great for acoustic amplification ! No need overhead mics.
This is a sneak preview of a new trio album I just finished mixing. The rhythm section consits of two of the "rising stars" on the german jazz scene, Oliver Potraz, bass and Tilo Weber, drums. This is a tune of mine called, "Thursday Lines". Hope you enjoy it.
Here are some beautifully improvised choruses by Gary which were recorded during a 1985 clinic in Argentina. Gary was talking about improvising with motives. Gustavo had this tape of the clinic and transcribed the choruses from the clinic.
I did this with a backing track so that it's easier to hear the etude with the harmony.
Saw Behn did a nice lesson by writing out a clear line over the TOTM, Whisper Not.
Here's one of my own.

Practicing some solo vibraphone today on another classic composition by Antonio Carlos Jobim. There are so many great compositions by Jobim. This one is "A Felicidade" which is a through-composed piece based upon six 8 measure sections.
