Last Days of Coney Island OST

French - Electropop - Prelude - 1

This quartet, for bass clarinet, percussion, piano and double bass, is based on improvisation within restrictions. The musical material is defined, as well as a very clear formal structure, but within these frames the musicians are free to find their own paths through the piece. Therefore, the duration of the piece may vary a lot between different performances, and the exact order of the musical events will never be the same. But the overall form of the composition will always be there.

"Impromptu" has two movements, "Morendo" and "Concertino", which follow each other without a break.

Live recording from the first performance.
Reaktion Ensemble, Malmö Academy of Music, 2015-11-14.

Impromptu (2015, for bass clarinet, percussion, piano and double bass)

[CONEY ISLAND]
Adrianna Mateo

It doesn't feel like it's December
The air is fresh and damp like Spring
Bodies humming, minds remember
What an afternoon like this one could bring

Would you come to Coney Island with me?
It might be cloudy but let's see
Rollercoaster's closed but there'll be a gentle breeze
Come to Coney Island with me.

You say you live in a far-off place
Like everyone I seem to meet
My mind's map shows the distance between our cities
Is a thumb's length less than the space between our knees

Would you come to Coney Island with me?
It might be cloudy but let's see
Rollercoaster's closed but there'll be a gentle breeze
Come to Coney Island with me.

Now in my mind's eye we're at the airport
Saying bye until next time
I'm well aware that might be never
But if it happens I know I would hit rewind

Would you come to Coney Island with me?
It might be cloudy but let's see
Rollercoaster's closed but there'll be a gentle breeze
Come to Coney Island with me.

Come to Coney Island with me?
Come to Coney Island with me...

Admiral Benbow — Andy Blaney

A little demo I made last night. Been playing around with screechy sounds. The melodic one you hear at around 0:46 is actually an accordian that I ran through all sorts of overdrive. 😆 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFEuS0u5QLM&feature=youtu.be

The Villain's House Tour

This is a wide ranging conversation with evi and trumpet virtuoso, John Swana. This features a lot of his spellbinding music as well on his insights on everything from making a living in music to how to develop your jazz to how to work out on electronic valve instrument. This is a must hear, folks!

Mark Thomas Taylor has worn many musical hats: composer, improviser, orchestral freelancer, chamber musician, teaching artist, bandleader and studio musician (He was even in a hip hop video once…).  In addition to several new chamber works, including “3 Songs About Puppetry” (commissioned by the principal Hornist of the Michigan Philharmonic), Mark has written and recorded the score for “Last Days of Coney Island” for famed animator/director Ralph Bakshi, placed two songs in the Dollface Productions independent feature film "The Girl" and scored the documentaries “9/11 Fear In Silence” for JadeFilms and Camille Billops’ "A String of Pearls”. Other projects include “It’s Not Like He’s Never Been There Before”, a multi-movement orchestral work, commissioned by the Tri-Centric Foundation and a series of transcriptions of the work of seminal jazz bandleader James Reese Europe’s 369th “Hellfighters” military band for the Brooklyn Repertory Ensemble. Mark has released four CDs of all original material, QuietLand, Circle Squared, At What Age and Live At The Freight (co-led with composer/saxophonist Jessica Jones).
One of the few performers to successfully integrate the notoriously difficult French Horn into the landscape of jazz and improvised music, Taylor’s broad musical background includes performing, composing and arranging. In addition to leading his own ensembles, Mark has also performed and recorded with an array of modern jazz giants including: Max Roach, Henry Threadgill, Wadada Leo Smith, Muhal Richard Abrams and Anthony Braxton.
