Will there be a day when people realize that 'jazz' does not mean 'sounds like kenny g'?
The answer is, ofcourse,
NO

Cover of the original, note for note mostly, but aside from that, the piano delay is just wrong. Not a good idea. Really creates a messy sound. Beyond that, repetitive and a violation.

Hahaha. We definitely don't accept 256kbps files here at all. Nothin' particularly jazzy here at all, although I suppose maybe I have a narrow-minded view of jazz. Like Prot said, very repetitive, and it does nothing dynamic with the source material whatsoever. This is some really flat arrangement work here as well, so work or bringing some life to these sounds. Good luck on any future mixes though, and hit the ReMixing forum here for more advice on how to improve your stuff. Chock this one up as an exercise in some of the basics.

NO

nice try on the panning, sounds awkward on headphones though. the balance of this mix is awkward as well. sounds like this must have been mixed on $5 computer speakers. really weak, generic sounding instruments and mechanical sequencing.

even white folk know this ain't jazz!
no

i can attest that i am white folk, and i do, in fact, know this aint jazz. yo.
and while i'll admit the only kenny G i've heard has been in the supermarket, to his credit, i think kenny has better soundfonts.

pretty straight arrangement, only thing changed is instrumentation, and the instruments dont sound particularly good.

NO
