If all you look Silvia's flowers, she had Tony Miceli mallets, David Friedman mallets, Gary Burton mallets, mallets by Morgan Mallets (Arturo Serra model included) and, mallets Morgan Mallets are making me (red and yellow head).

Tony, Arturo, John, Marie, Dimitris, Tjaco, David, Vaggelis, Norbert, Nico, Phillippe, Vid, Ben, Jordi, Antonio, Marcel, Patrice, Jean-Pierre...
Silvia and me missed all you that very special day for us.

This is a version of Blue n Green that my friend and bassist John Zalabak and i did last night in preping for a upcoming duo gig. check out the use of upper structure Triads especially on the Bbmaj7#11, the use of altered scales on the flat9 dominant chords and also some nice intervallis sequences in the vibes .. enjoy

I played a great and fun gig in South Korea at the Daegu Jazz Festival. I made some great friends over there, so are on Vibesworkshop! Jinwoo and Sang Won. Great guys and great players! Sang Won studies with me at University of the Arts.

Another backing track recording...goo for practice if nothing else. Let me know what i can do better!

I'd like to share with you one of the song of the new album of Franck Tortiller orchestra. One of the best french vibist and composer.
Great song. Great vibist.

Greetings everyone. As some of you might know, I'm an adult student getting back to mallet playing after being away for many, many years. Used to have a marimba. Played lots of classical music. Now the proud owner of my first vibraphone. I'm having an absolute blast! Definitely trying to aim at jazz soloing, comping, ect on the vibes.

yesterday i made a cd recording session with my trio.we recorded 6 songs written by us. as a preview here´s my first rough mix of a tune written by our singer. comments are welcome especially for the mixing because i´m never sure how to make a good mix in this setup.

on some other songs i used a combination of the malletkat and the vibes which i really like.hope to post them soon
