Ta-daa! That riff from Clean Bandit's Rather Be all brassed up, a.k.a "Brasser Be".

In the interest of getting started with posting here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA24UBgWCAw&t=2m20s. I'd like to re-record this allowing plenty of time for practising dem bottom notes and tweaking the "production" and no clock ticking in the background etc. etc.

What do you think? Let me know below!

Behold - my arrangement Blackbird in all of its complicated and slightly out-of-tune, tired-lipped glory. Apparently the bounciness reminds my dear Mum of our garden's resident blackbird, Bernie. He flits around. He sits in bushes. He's cool.

What do you think? Let me know below!

Starting out on the trombone over ten years ago has previously given Adam the opportunity to play in a variety of bands, orchestras and choirs at school, university, semi-professionally and the odd recording session. he recently added the trumpet to his arsenal of musical headaches and hasn't stopped playing it since, much to the dismay and sleep-deprivation of family and neighbours alike. He fully intends to keep it that way.

Expect renovation here very soon:

- I'll post one arrangement per week-ish: allowing around a week for each arrangement means more polishing time.
- I'm currently in the process of procuring permission to put up here recordings that I've done with others in the past.

Thank you very much for taking the time to check this out, I appreciate it greatly. If you have any thoughts, suggestions, fan mail or gripes about copyright infringement, let me know below!
