The Hazel Project

Hello everyone,

I’ve fixed the links in the “music” category in the sidebar. So they work now. I’ve even tested it. Later I’ll have the whole CD in it’s own category with the playing order I’ve intended.
For now though

I’m uploading a long piece that I mixed today for headphones (because that’s what I have to mix on right now).

To get to it click on the “music” category in the sidebar. I’ve written an explanation of the piece and the link is at the bottom.

So the mix will sound different in the car or on a stereo but I wanted to put it out there to see what you guys thought.

It Borrows heavily from Lyle Mays (Pat Metheny Group), Tony Banks (Genesis), Russell Ferrante, and Jimmy Haslip (both from Yellowjackets) to be sure. I really mean to pay homage to these superlative musicians and composers. It has contained within it a Lyle Mays melody called “close to home”- at the end of the synth solo.
Give it time. It’s a long one, but there’s a lot of ear candy going on and expands aurally.
Thanks for listening… with headphones.
