These
clips are taken from a session I did for a Latin pop-rock band in Spain (well,
actually the Basque country if you ask them!).
This
short piece was fully written out by the composer as a MIDI part, and relatively
easy to play. Therefore it didn't take as long as a normal project, so I was
able to offer the composer a substantial discount.
Notice the difference in the sound of the trumpet in the "before" (MIDI) and "after" (real) versions. I realise that not all MIDI brass instruments sound as bad as this one, but still I think that the only way to get a real sound is to use a real instrument.

This
is an improvized solo I played for a hip hop track written by Workforce at
www.beatcreamery.com. It's completely
unedited. That's what came out in that take. (I've added a touch of reverb.)
If you ask me to compose a part I usually stick your track on my ipod and
listen to it for a few days. When I have developed some ideas I will loop
each section of the track in Pro Tools and try them out until I finalize a
part that I'm happy with.
