One of the Sexiest and Sleaziest sounds that I've ever has got to be "Track A – Solo Dance". It almost sounds like it could be the intro song to Taxi Driver. There is true grit in this song, like walking in the hot sun hung over as hell, looking for an ice cold drink. It really feels like a soundtrack to me in this track, its very blunt and sharp at the same if that makes any sense.
All that aggression of the first track is taken down a bit with "Track B– Duet Solo Dancers". To me this one is more of a closer that ends the night, you know maybe at an after party with a someone over a few drinks, a night cap you know what I mean. Yeah it picks up around the middle but it still feels like an epic that eases the night away.
Jazz has an affect on me, the music has a way to shape my emotion and I think most peoples perception on most subjects(that's probably why its used in movies allot). "Track C - Group Dancers" sounds like getting up in the morning and rushing through the hustle of life. There's always a story in these songs
"Mode D – Trio and Group Dancers" has a good mix in it, the horns blaze and set a mood of action like a big climatic scene in a movie and the guitar gives a real sense of tense. At 18:39 long a whole story could be told in the time it takes to listen to this one playing the background its just that good, it hits all the point in the band that lend to the imagination.
Before I let you go this week I want to say what I always say because there is soo much good music out there that have to listen to it and share it so I say it again PASS IT ON
Remember kiddos to listen to the Pinata Hour Wednesday's @ 7pm to 9PM on Skidrow Studios... you'll enjoy it
