Lovely. 
but let me ask you - where do you live?
Doesn't feel like summer right now! 
Nice 
It sounds so effortless - well done!
Hey Thanks!
@Ingolf - Thank-you, glad you liked it.
@bigHF - Hah, no it's winter here too (California), although it never gets that cold here. this is more a memory of how the gum got there 
@Raoul23 - Thanks!
@paults - Cheers! It probably sounds effortless because I'm very lazy and don't put any effort into it! It's all a big fake.
I actually feel embarrassed to label it Jazz as I know the incredible skill of real Jazz musicians and I have absolutely none of that, I just have my fingers crossed that I don't get called out too badly on it, I'm just trying to nail the sound of those classic 60's Jazz records that I love, especially stuff like Kenny Burrell, Brubeck etc.
So it's all sort of a bunch of production fakery - fading piano's far enough into the BG that you can't tell just how horrible they are, the bass is almost non-existant on this one, the drums are BFD using midi preset loops (the only part I don't play myself), the guitars are just me improvising something and trying to get the rough sonic texture that I recognize as being related to the sound that I love.
So, yeah it's really all fake, me being lazy, not skilled at all, and really it's more one of those catharsis/need a way to wind down things that I quickly knock out from time to time. I have to work much harder at other genres that I would prefer to have aptitude at but apparently can't do as well. Sometime I need to sit down and go through all the thousands of really great tutorials out there on mixing/engineering/producing pop, rock and heavier tones.
When the overall mood works ( like this does) none of it is fake anymore
yes excellent track mate , I feel your pain at the end while you were trying to get that gum out
Nice job!
