In my nearly 40 years of entertaining, I&#8217;ve learned a couple things.\u00a0 In a listening environment, you can play anything.\u00a0 In a public setting, you are constrained to find out what works best for each venue. For bands that have 50 song setlists, It&#8217;s &#8220;love us or hate us&#8221;.\u00a0 For the happy hour, corporate, patio, hotels and restaurants, it&#8217;s tricky.\u00a0 Finding music that can be both listened to, and or be in the background during conversations without drowning out the clients&#8217; conversations is quite a dance. I believe the music of Jobim and light Latin jazz fits this place perfectly unless it&#8217;s a happy hour at a Harley Convention.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m excited to bring this music to my clients this year on a new music rig I&#8217;m developing that is very user-friendly and sounds amazing in my solo shows.<\/p>\n<p>On this first tune here I&#8217;m just playing left hand bass and using a TC Helicon Voice Live 2 Touch on an octave switch live for the signature voice doubling.\u00a0 Using Ableton I&#8217;ll be able to loop any sections of the songs to play them out in any form. Mute any instruments for other players and so on. A few hundred more hours and I&#8217;ll have some of this figured out. What i love is the ability to change. To do 5part harmony live \/ realtime via midi at any time, or to have it in a stem to call up if I choose. Well, and then there&#8217;s looping live on the harmonizer or on a guitar looper If I want to get crazy. Naa. Ableton is bad enough and the new Keylab 88 by Arturia is quite a controller. Hope you enjoy the track. Go back to Facebook and leave me a comment. Well, any comment except &#8220;you suck&#8221; , please \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Girl From Impanema I am in the midst of finishing two sets of Antonio Carlos Jobim for the 2020 season and beyond.
