The last two tunes are recorded on a session last year for my high school's musical. Som lyrical content is present and is in Danish, so you are warned [img]smile.gif[/img]

The first is recently recorded as a Demo-kinda thing. I do a serious fault at 2:12 but we didn't want to re-take it, producer thought it was ok [img]frown.gif[/img]

I could really use some constructive crititism on the tunes, cause i'm not that experienced in sessioning. So if any of you veterans would like to check it out, i would be very grateful! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, seriously! If you are in high school(!) then that is some serious musical maturity, not a bit overplayed. My high school (i am not in high school now!) has had the best jazz band in the states for the last two decades... i'd put that samba up against them anytime... so tasty!
Your pocket is wonderful, kept it right in there.
Great job!

wow, thank you for the feedback. I feel very humble that you guys replied.

Speaking of musical maturity, it was my father who told me of the aspect of playing for the music ( My father is a truly Steve Gadd playing guy, very deep feel for the music, i'm in awe of him everytime i hear him play ). But he told me the importance of to hook up with a member of the band that inspires you, challenges you, and provokes you into objection, recognition, communication and the ability to casually groove together. If you've listened to the high school compositions, the Guy at the keyboard/piano is a 16 year old monster talent, that is a thrilling experience to play with. He inpireres me into communcation, he makes new rythmical ideas to challenge me while he's soloing. A pure blessing to have in a band. I feel he's been blessed with the same abilities as Richard Tee had. I allways told him to forget about High School and hit for Berkelee so he could get to play with you Louie Palmer, i think you guys as a combo would be a killing experience for every audience!

Anyways thanks for the feedback. It is a previlege to get feedback from US players, because in Denmark. the music industry is really in deep crisis and i am truly thinking of moving to USA!

[matricks]

The music industry may be in crisis, but how is it as far as what people listen to. Do people try and support 'good' music?

[matricks]

Oh, and how long you been playing, how old are you?

[Klemme]

I'm 19 years old.

I received my first lessons at the age of 5, and was put in a Child band under guidiance by an old Danish music veteran, we learned alot, but unfortunately our teacher got very sick and had to put the project down, since nobody else was interested in taking over the project. since that it's been different teachers and different bands i've played with, been to quite many summer camps where there's intensive courses different styles of music, Lars "Larry" Danielsson was once the mentor on those camps etc. had some great thoughts on drumming, from a bass-players perspective. etc.

But anyways finished High school this summer, so i'm not linked to any institution at the moment.

But it's roughly 13-14 years of playing yeah.
