What a delight!

Helpful

This a pure delight. You are a really skilled musician and composer. This could be movie music! It is a beautiful, high energy jazz piece. I liked the use of strings and flutes in different parts of the music. It reminds me of the great composer Burt Bacharach because it is positive in nature and manages to be quite flirty like a great pop song. Please keep up the great writing. I am serious about it being movie music. You should pursue that.

Brazilian point of view

Hi, Shigeki, first of all, congrats for the good taste! Your tune sounds Brazilian Jazz to me. I like the vibe, kind of reminds me instrumental Bossa Nova, good choice of timbres, nice virtual instruments, good harmony, good keyboard performance (vho am I to say that? I'm a really bad keyboard player) but I like it, but the nice strings of the beginning desapeared after a while, I missed them for more time, talking with the other solos... I also think it could improve a little with more swing, which is typical of my country's music. Details! In short, I like the whole tune, feels good and relaxing to listen! Again, congrats!

Nice!!!

I like the production sound and the vibe of the track along with the originality. I can feel the heart in this showing you've put in some dedicated work on your art. I like the piano solo along with live instruments . More artist should study the roots of their culture of art more to be better at their own art. Keep up the good work and stay in the lab creating new material to stay fresh and on your toes. If you're ever looking for a hip hop collaboration hit me up I'm versatile. Peace!

Hi good day. My opinion about the song is that in addition to being a beautiful theme, with a beautiful melody and an excellent accompaniment, it is full of an atmosphere of tranquility and transports very pleasant passages that can be applied to everyone's life. The piano's execution is impeccable and the rest of the instruments have a perfect balance. The mix and the production are very good. Congratulations for this great job.

Sweet Composition

Well composed, you deserve your place among the best. Many of your nuances remind me of some early Blue Note jazz greats , as I could see this beautiful composition offers some of the best arrangements of cool jazz. I am a big fan of the late George Duke, and Herbie Hancock, but the artist that came to mind while listening to your music is Joe Sample. Thanks for sharing and the best of luck to you.

straight into that smooth groove, syncopated bass guitar and every facet of jazz rhythmic nuance that you have to love, great timing and orchestration, piano excellence is rife. Could quite easily be the background for a TV commentary, maybe a journey travel programme, this oner a railway excursion to me such infectious beat I find my self tapping out this message review on the keyboard in time to it. there's everything you could wish for here and more. I love it and genuine disappointment when it finished, although every journey has a destination. Thanks guys

The Streamliner review by Erik Lyon

Great song. Fun arrangement and very nice instrumentation. This song has a great feel to it. it makes my body want to move. You can tell that you take your craft very seriously. I give you an A+ on the songwriting. If there was any advice I could give you; it would be... That on my end of things, the overall mix could be evened out a little better and perhaps not so much reverb on the drum track. but that all tech stuff. Great Job with the MUSIC PART! write 100 more!

Very beatifull Smooth-Jazz composition - very well performed with perfect and beatiful voice in a perfect interpretition - For a instrumental composition the music style is kind of special - very sophisticated but popular - Instruments are again very well suited with arrangement which is very rich and beatiful with well played instruments - In my opinion this composition have all attributes and should to be promoted for international market - So go for it - This is great work Shigeki - Keep on and do more of this fantastic music - Thank you I enjoy and GREAT RESPECT...

Nice composition. All the chords and melody are synched in time. I can appreciate that the music was played with passion and the arrangement was well considered before attempting the solos that were added. This would work in the U.S. Keep up the the good works.

This tune Had a smooth jazz feeling from the beginning. Nice tempo begun with the piano. Love the playing! The synthesized inner parts are true to tone color with same nice inside solo improve working going on. The fusion side of jazz is evident. Hope to hear more from this talented artist in the future!

Great fusion

Helpful

Thinking of the great fusion years and filled with nostalgia ... keyboard musicians as Tom Grant, Dave Grusin, Don Grusin, David Benoit. lovely theme's and harmonics , nice orchestration and synth sounds but still sounding natural ... Great !!!

Smooooth smooth jazz

Helpful

Combining the Slap Bass hits with the Bass synth really added some character to the composition. Dynamic piano playing. Enjoyed the smooth tempo and charismatic playing style. Well done!

Bop review

Helpful

Alright people it's time for another bop review so let's get right into it. Ok it's a very slow jazz contemporary type sing this is a great sounding track nice bass and drum tracks and we'll placed percussion and rhythm guitars this song reminds me of russ freeman and the rippingtons with all the moody jazz riffs happening throughout the track.pretty cool keyboards and what sounded like wind instruments.overall I really enjoyed listening to this track.

This is a wonderful play on the tune of "Streamline" which seems to effortless glide along. Reminds me of Don Grusin and a GRP jazz style using the grand piano as the basis for instrumentation and adding flute and cool percussion features. Great music for an elevator or phone hold. Makes me happy to be in my space wherever that is.
