This Is Electro Swing

Pink Panther Theme by Bill Riggs & Ed Grooms

Art Deco VIP

About a month or so ago a friend of mine asked me if I can compose music for a group of creative people who run their businesses in Israel (jewelry, fashion, photography and so on). This group planned to create a promo video clip and they wanted some music in the style of 20s. Honestly, I am not a big fan of that period and... frankly, I didn't really know how exactly 20s sound. Had to check different YouTube videos to get the sense of what is expected. My first attempt sounded more like 30s: more smooth than swinging. This is the second attempt :) Arty added some styling to make it sound like an old vinyl recording. Enjoy!

Ah, one of the draft versions of the promo clip is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdoCPa5JH94

Here is the Facebook page of the mentioned group: http://www.facebook.com/VintageMontagePRO

You can see more photos from their photo session.

"Ninjas Can’t Catch You If You’re On Fire" by Nathaniel Schwartz
2013 Big Band Composition Competition / Gerald Wilson Award Winner
Performed by the 2013 Next Generation Jazz Orchestra at the 56th Annual Monterey Jazz Festival on the Jimmy Lyons Stage in the Arena, September 22, 2013

Each year since 2005 at the Next Generation Jazz Festival presented by Monterey Jazz Festival, the Big Band Composition Competition is open to student composers currently enrolled in high school.

Compositions are judged by college-level music faculty, and the winning composer receives the Gerald Wilson Award, named in honor of the legendary composer, arranger and trumpeter who has been a friend of Monterey Jazz Festival for many years.

The winning composition is performed on the Jimmy Lyons Stage in the Arena at the annual Monterey Jazz Festival by the Festival's all-star student band, the Next Generation Jazz Orchestra, and the student composer is given the Gerald Wilson Award and a cash prize.

2013 Big Band Composition Competition / Gerald Wilson Award Winner:
Nathaniel Schwartz
"Ninjas Can’t Catch You If You’re On Fire"
Northgate High School / Walnut Creek, CA

Guitarist and composer Nate Schwartz, 18, is a graduate of Northgate High School in Walnut Creek, California. He began playing the trumpet in 7th grade and switched to jazz guitar at age 15. "Ninjas" is his first arrangement for big band. He played in Northgate High School's Jazz Band I and Jazz Sextet; in the Diablo Valley College Night Band, and Jazzschool Advanced Jazz Workshop in Berkeley. He's been selected for honor jazz bands at the school district, county, and all-state levels, and was a finalist for the GRAMMY® Camp Jazz Session for the last two years. His musical career began when his family learned to play bluegrass music and formed a band in which Nate plays mandolin and sings. Nate began studying jazz composition at UCLA in the fall of 2013.

Less is more. Pure. Cool.

What's cooler than Michel Martineau’s Clarinet(s) in a funky, clean format we call “Cool Cucumber” – a Nu Jazz treat. Feel me? Dig it!

Cool Cucumber (feat. Michel Martineau)

This track combines Herbie Hancock's jazz classic “Maiden Voyage” and Louis MacNeice's beautiful poem about the passage of time, “Star Gazing”. It features two of the most talented musicians I have heard on Soundcloud. 
Derek Cornett from California can play in any guitar style, from classical to rock to jazz, and like most superb musicians is incredibly humble about his huge collection of skills. Here he does his Pat Metheny impression early on and shreds like John Schofield later on.
Risa Kobayashi from Japan combines electronics and jazz piano. I love electronic music and I love jazz. I've tried to combine the two in the past but one always seems to suck the energy out of the other. A visit to Risa's page shoes us how to do it, with rhythmic drive, fresh original sounds, awesome technique and a real sense of the dramatic. Her piano on this track is wonderful, whether soloing or vamping. 
Please take the time to visit the soundcloud pages of these amazing musicians…

This is fourth time I have associated a Louis MacNeice poem with music and it won't be the last. I have many real-life associations with this poet and the places and experiences he describes. This is not a depressing poem for me. The immensity of time and space always fills me with awe and wonder, not horror…it helps me keep my perspective on life. As usual, Louis Mac Neice says it so much better than I ever could and the tune “Maiden Voyage” with its beautiful modal changes just feels like it could keep on expanding and opening out for ever…perfect for this poem.
Star-Gazer
Forty-two years ago (to me if to no one else 
The number is of some interest) it was a brilliant starry night 
And the westward train was empty and had no corridors 
So darting from side to side I could catch the unwonted sight 
Of those almost intolerably bright
 Holes, punched in the sky, which excited me partly because 
Of their Latin names and partly because I had read in the textbooks 
How very far off they were, it seemed their light 
Had left them (some at least) long years before I was.  

And this remembering now I mark that what 
Light was leaving some of them at least then, 
Forty-two years ago, will never arrive
 In time for me to catch it, which light when
 It does get here may find that there is not 
Anyone left alive 
To run from side to side in a late night train 
Admiring it and adding noughts in vain.
