13 different flavours of digital electro funk composed in the many styles I’ve moulded over the last 20 or so years. Tronic Jazz was an experiment delving into a world of the soft synth to find ways to sculpt analog sounds from digital waveform. I wanted to show that you don’t need to have these machines necessarily to make these sounds. This I needed to do after visiting friends who had taken on the vintage analog fetish I had in the mid to late 80′s – getting the “old school analog warm sound”. Back then these machines were kind of all I could afford. From this admittedly my sound was born and I still feel this is the basis of my sound today but I don’t believe anybody needs the machines to do it. In the 80′s, 90′s, 00′s and now in the 10s I feel a part of the experiment is to progress regardless of musical trend. Especially today where I feel there are some desperate lost souls that would like some direction. I think chasing the dosh has made some composers / dj-producers dumb down what was the cutting edge future of dance music and I’d like to hear other people’s opinions…
