Lemaitre - Wait (Jerry Folk Remix)

Classic Afrobeat groove straight from the Fela Kuti playbook, featuring driving percussion, soaring live saxophone, rhythmic Farfisa organ, and a full band radiating pure energy and soul

Late Night Lagos

This is a piece from the Antillean Dances book by Wim Statius Muller. It was given to me by a friend and I decided to learn to play the music. It's beautiful and melodic music.

Tristeza

A solo piano interpretation of Antônio Carlos Jobim’s Desafinado — equal parts tribute, exploration, and quiet rebellion.

I open with Jobim’s original intro from the Inédito album (his private, unreleased sessions), keeping that delicate harmonic ambiguity intact before wandering into more personal territory.

The piece closes with a fade — a quasi-classical reimagining of the opening melody, like the ghost of a theme revisiting itself in a different room.

Recorded in one take, with all the imperfections left in. Just how Jobim would’ve liked it. Hopefully.

Desafinado

Waltz for Debby edgar en Bert

pianist, composer and producer. Dedicated at getting my own stuff out there. DIY guy, outside-the-box & on-the-fly guy, is fine as long's I know my 'why' guy
