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

I just bought some bars and resonators for an M55 on Ebay in Germany and am looking for a frame. If anyone has any leads as to where I can buy one, I would be grateful.

Greetings everyone,
My Musser M55 can be adjusted for height. Are there guidelines/suggestions on choosing an optimal height?

Thanks!

Question for all you Mallet Kat players out there:

Has anyone found a lightweight soft case for the KAT?

I got the soft wheeled case about 2 months ago. It's great, well made, good design, but the thing by itself weighs close to 20lbs!
