The remix is unfinished, so for now it just stops at the end of the piano solo. Yeah i know, the horn samples are pretty weak

Jazz fans should recognize the solo chord changes

I added one more A and B section after the piano solo. I dunno, maybe the ending is a bit lame?

Fabulous piano as always, great jazz interpretation ideas. Can you find someone to play trumpet? Damashii!! perhaps?

edit: *still listening* Goes pretty off the rails away from source as it moves along during the extended piano soloing... 2:08 all the way to 4:04... it's lovely but that could be a problem.

Thanks Kristina!

Yeah, i think a real trumpet would be great. I maybe want to change some things in the arrangement but once it's finished i'll probably ask a trumpet player.

Yes the solo is long but i think there should still be enough source, if i calculated it correctly.

I'd like to hear you get a little more flourishy in the quiet piano sections, in the spirit of Jazz (especially in the last section). Solo section is great and transitions well back into the source - I don't think it's a problem.

Very nice take on the theme

I think it'd help if you didn't count small parts where you didn't use the notes from the source. For example, if you have a 30 second portion where you used notes only halfway through, then finished up the remaining 15 seconds with filler notes or chords, then only half of it counts. That way you're giving yourself minimum credit for source usage, and you would have a better idea of your worst-case scenario.

Well my "calculation" was actually a bit rough and the amount of source was still a bit scant so i can see what you mean. I could try to add a bit more source or i might sacrifice one solo chorus

Also thanks metaphist, i'll see what can be done about the flourishes, maybe gonna add some here n' there but actually i like how the chords are floating over the groove.
