February 6, 20188 yr I made this a year ago as a theme for a native american-italian inspired fantasy mafioso. Tried to imagine how swing rhythm would sound like in 7/4. He had the letter "B" motif in his visual design so the chord progression was kinda made with that in mind. | BMaj7 | BDimMaj 7/A# | BMaj7/F# | Bmaj9b5/D# | BMaj7 | BMinMaj7/A# | B7/F# | BMaj6/D# | C#Min7/D# | F#Min 6/D# | EMin 7/B | BMaj7 | For solos since I'm sequencing rather than live playing (i have no instrument performance talent lol), I gave myself a time limit of 10 mins to place notes for each part with few or no takebacks and no quantization to simulate on-spot improv. and comping as much as possible.
February 6, 20188 yr Jazz ins't a strong point of mine but I quite like this. I think you've done a good job here, especially given the constraints you placed on yourself to help imitate that improv feel. I think it worked rather well. Nicely done!
