Slip Away (feat. Dave McKeown, Wayne Morley & Jonny Trobro)

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...
