The classic Herbie Hancock jazz standard from 1964 as you've never heard it before. My version features a House beat to drive it along and some mix and mash Hip Hop style!

Love Guitar? You're in the right place!
I'm different! I play melodies - even when improvising!  
I'm really not interested in impressing other musicians. I'm creating music for everyone.

ABOUT ME
I play the music I like to listen to. 
As a guitarist I like to think I have my own style.
Harmony, and the groove is what I'm chasing, hopefully with a tasteful, nuanced, and distinctive presentation. 
I don't have a genre as such. I could sort of call myself a smooth Jazz 'n' Blues guitar 'thang' but in reality every track crosses over multiple strands of R&B/Jazz/Funk/Pop. Don't be put off by my use of the "J" word. Jazz to me is anything unpredictable and I'm nothing if not contemporary. 
Rhythm playing is as much a part of my "game" as lead soloing. I love the Funk!
My main instrument is guitar. I play a 1973 Ovation Breadwinner, an Ibanez nylon stringed and a Yamaha keyboard loaded with Keyscape. Unless stated I play all the other instruments too (mostly Bass), and sequence MIDI and arrange/produce. 

MY JOURNEY
I was signed with Fresh Air records and EMI in the 1980's creating Jazz/funk dance tracks but things were just as challenging then as they are now for musicians so I got a 'proper job' for 20 years! During all that time my guitar was in the loft! I rediscovered music in 2010 and Soundcloud in 2014.


MY SOUNDCLOUD
I am grateful to Soundcloud listeners who take the time to press |>Play - and especially if you give me some feedback :-)
I hope what you hear will draw you in sufficiently to explore on my own website. Nearly all my original stuff (6 albums worth) are on www.BennySutton.com and all are downloadable.
Please don't follow me in hope of getting to get an automatic follow back. I don't do that because I only follow the smallest number of people I can keep track of. I'll have a look at your page but will only follow back if you are really of interest to me. See my follow list, you'll discover some very talented artistes, many of whom I have been lucky to Collab. Soundcloud really is the place to find the real innovators these days - not the music industry approved channels, especially MTV!
If you want to get my attention, send me a PM.

Hi,

My collaborations are still at the following pages: 
https://soundcloud.com/non-sapiens-and-ko 
https://soundcloud.com/ns-hugo
https://soundcloud.com/spidersapiens

But most of them end up being reposted here anyway...

Apart from these, I sometimes repost stuff from others that I've particularly liked but I only do so for 24 hours so as not to clog my own stream too much (nostalgic sigh for old SC...).

And who am I exactly, then? Well, my name's Yann Vienne and I'm a French teacher of English living in Alsace, near Germany. My hobby is to write and perform simple little songs in French and English and since discovering Soundcloud to post them for everyone to hear and my ego to inflate. My wife and some friends appear on certain tracks. 

Please don't hesitate to leave a comment, be it positive or negative. And for regular updates you can visit my Facebook page (and "like" it if you please) at : http://www.facebook.com/pages/Non-Sapiens/231217246890785?sk=wall

Bonjour,

Je m'appelle Yann Vienne, je suis prof d'anglais et je vis en Alsace. Mon hobby ? Composer de petites chansons sans prétention, les enregistrer avec les moyens du bord et poster ces petits brouillons sur Soundcloud. Et depuis quelques mois j'ai un VRAI groupe que vous pouvez écouter ici : https://soundcloud.com/nonsapienslive
