Me and @Logic301 made this track way back in 2009, I'm proud to have had the opportunity to collaborate with him dude is a real pleasure to work with. I've got a few more tracks we made back in the day and hopefully we'll get to work on something in the future. Be sure to favourite, repost and Share with anybody you think might enjoy! Thanks for listening! Peace...

cool song to ride down the freeway to just chill-in 

It's Time

What is cool?

Miles Davis was cool. His classic "So What" was very cool. Ronny Jordan's acid jazz take on Miles' "So What" was very cool indeed. 

I like cool!

As "Take Five" inspired me to do "Take Six", "So What" inspired me to do "That's What". Same logic applies; an outline with lots of room for manouvering, contact a bunch of awesome musicians, see what they come up with and blend and stir everything into a delightfully cool cocktail. Swing it ;-)! 

"That's What" this is!

Smooth jazz

For me the sound of "West Coast" is a celebration of life; of joy and passion. It makes you look good, behind those sunglasses, driving your convertible in the setting sun, from L.A. to San Francisco on Highway 1 ;-)! 

Delusions of grandeur aside, I feel that my musical companions and I have reached yet another level of meshing our sounds and styles together effortlessly into the flow of music. Thus I am really proud to present "Solitude in Motion" to you all. Enjoy ;-)!

Over and Over

French jazz circa 1947 - LOVE Eartha Kitt, so playful and sultry! *earphones on* Cara Manglapus (lead vocals), Alex Salva (piano, backing vocals), Xtine Mercado (bass, backing vocals), Anabec Silverio (drums)



C'est Si Bon 1947 (live studio recording)

Let's take six musicians and make something in 6/8ths - "Take Six" it is!

I'm very proud to present to you an original, spring-welcoming, smooth-flowing jazz piece, with some of the finest (jazz) musicians here on SC. 

My immense gratitude goes to these guys jumping aboard without hesitation on basis of a sketchy idea I had - to forge a six man collaboration, upping the stakes of complexity. Coming out at the other end with another, great learning experience to behold and a track I will cherish.  

Enjoy!

Liner notes:

When I first composed this track a few years ago, based on an original idea by my friend Benjamin, I felt elated - like I had reached a new level of creativity. Little did I know then that I would be able to realise what were actually merely sketches into fullfledged songs, thanks to the SoundCloud community. Finally I've come around to also elevate my old favorite "Recurrent Occurrence" with a little help of my friends; Derek on the finest jazz guitar to be found on SC, always awesome Michelle on jazzy vocals and introducing Magnus on EWI. 

This funk-fusion-chillout is best indulged laid back, with the sun in your eyes behind sunglasses, and something cold in your hand, looking forward to the pleasures of the night. Enjoy!

Recurrent Occurrence (feat. Derek Cornett, Magnus Jansson & Michelle Yaneza)

Piano is my instrument, inspired by the world. Sounds like whatever I like, intent on a cool vibe, often somewhere in between Swedish melancholy and Brazilian bittersweetness... 

Peter Bennborn Project is a diverse musical experience ranging from romantic piano ballads to alternative indie metal rock and everything in between, but for country and reggae so far...

The music is either performed alone or in worldwide collaborations, wherever the appropriate musician for the task is located - no limitations and no limits in a borderless world...
