There's not much to post here but just an explanation.
I created a song back in high school that I named "Spotlight". The song was meant to be in the form of your typical jazz standard. There is an A section and a B section. However the chords ran through the same sequence over and over. So to make up for this repetitiveness I made the B section run through the chords slower with a walking bass line and a nice, steady swing beat behind it.
Fast forward to today and I am so proud of this song and what it has been through. I've forgotten mostly all of my originals, save for maybe some ones I posted on Myspace a long time ago. But this song is my pride and joy. You may even call it my first masterpiece!
Ok semantics aside, I just recorded this on my MIDI keyboard and while there's never a substitute for the real thing, my little set up here is pretty respectable considering how much money some of the equipment was.
So I share with you a small work in progress if you will. A solo session of me running through an improvisational performance of "Spotlight". Hope you enjoy it!
