Monthly Challenge: July 2020: Rob

The challenge this month has only 2 parts.

1.  Re-record/film 2 transcriptions from the first 4 months of this blog.
2. Improvise over this EDM track.  No video is needed, this is an audio/logic assignment.  You are free to process your sound in logic as much as you wish.  You can play with the song or blow over it.  Try utilising the chromatic scale.  You will need to download the audio from youtube.  Drag it into logic.  Set-up your bass to record, drop ecstasy and play.  Flex time and pitch,  automation, effects, etc from logic are all available.   Be creative with the tools available then post as an audio file.  Have fun.

Walkin solo by Miles Davis

Absolutely loved this one. For the most part it is easy to play except the few triplet and 16th note lines. Great use of space. I will probably take more out of this solo than any other horn solo.

Careful: Jim Hall solo

 This is a Jim Hall composition that he recorded several times during his career.  This version is from a Gary Burton album " Something's Coming!" from 1963. I have been really into Jim this past month. Truly the father of modern Jazz guitar. Solo sounds easy, but it gave me some trouble. Even though Jim isn't known as a technical player, he has his moments with rakes and slurs that are hard to replicate. Amazing sense of rhythm and melody. You are going to see and hear lots more of Jim in the coming months. ☺

St. Thomas _Sonny Rollins solo...

Great solo by Sonny Rollins. Been meaning to learn this forever. Had not been able to get it past 80% but gave a stab at it a few days ago at 100% and here it is .... so much info in this recording.
