Damn, tasty! Some very Roy Ayers-esque interludes in there... Some parts are very synthetic/quantised sounding but that's not necessarily a bad thing... Maybe play with mangling your sounds a bit ala Daft Punk et al?

Could probably use some more live bass/guitar playing (nod, wink) :D
Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.

Thanks bro, yeah I wish I had a live bass player or could play bass. I probably shouldn't bother investing in better bass libraries because it is so hard to make it sound real anyway.

I expected dirtier! :P (loves me some dirty jazz!)

I'd lose the brass sound if this is intended to be a finished product: we all know it's not a trumpet! Or you could effect it in someway to underscore that everyone know's it's a synthetic production.

Very cool production, otherwise. (or is it "hot"? sometimes I get confused! ;)) Great EP and organ stuff. Bass sound doesn't bother me at all!

Awesome! :D

Don't you have other songs like that?

Great clip.
A little to light for my taste but overall great.
As mentioned before the trumpet and bass are a little too synthetic.
