Did another thing. Eh. Instrumental Beat. Bass line is probably too intense, but i wanna try give myself a small window to finish beats, otherwise i'm gonna sit on them and just let them rot on my hard drive lol.

Sample:
Louis Armstrong -  If I Could Be With You One Hour Tonight

Jhaxias - Let Me Be With You

A thing i did back in Fiji. Probably about 2 years ago now. Before i had an MPC to work with, i tried to chop samples using Ableton Live, but didn't like how it worked at the time. This inspired me to eventually get an MPC of my own. 

This project had been lost. My Hard Drive had a brain fart and deleted my whole music library. Eventually i learned how to dragged them all back, but not for years after. 

Hope you enjoy!

Sample:
Frank Sinatra - The Girl From Ipanema

Jhaxias - Butterfly Groove

The first track i made using the MPC One. I used the template preset and then branched out from there. All instrument played were also built right into the MPC One. Used a MIDI Keyboard to play them.

Not sure what the original sample is, but it was preloaded in the system.

DJ Jazzy James - The First

This song was just supposed to be an experimental thing, where i try some kind of spacial track. Aaaaaand im back at Boom Bap lol

SAMPLE: 
Michael Jackson - Lady In My Life

***THIS IS A NON PROFIT PRODUCTION***

Jhaxias - Azure (We'll Shine)

Decided I'd make an instrumental track, paying homage to my Polynesian heritage. I'm considering doing more Poly based tracks in the future, no matter what style.

With this track, i tried putting a different twist into it. I took a sample from a track, flipped it, and played instruments over it. Started with my usual MPC looping, routed out to Ableton. 

ROSTER:
Alto Sax, Scratching, Keys, Bass, Drums, Percussion - Jhaxias

SAMPLES:
Leo Addeo - Pearly Shells
Bob Marley - One Love

Jhaxias - 685

Just a Jam. Decided to try a House styled track. With this track, my main focus was on the Mastering and EQing. I've realised that these two aspects were what i was seriously lacking in, in previous projects. That, and some minor improvements to the way i use Compressors and Limiters. I'd say this sounds a bit nicer than previous stuff i've done. Named after one of the few people in this world I would consider my friend. You know ga, brass! #KaiVitiTings

SAMPLE:
Patrice Rushen - All We Need (from 'Straight From The Heart')
