4-1-2020 One take improvisation meditation Brett Van Donsel 2021-01-14 | Since being cooped up due to COVID and not been able to work with other musicians, I’ve been creating these one-off improvisations using my a guitar, FX, and looper and a Casio SK1 sampler (SK1 used sparingly). Everything here was done live in one sitting. The loops and samples were created on the fly during the session. They are raw and imperfect, but they are genuine snapshots of a moment, so I’ve decided to release some of them. These are a departure from my more polished works. Please feel free to leave comments.

Showbiz Brett Van Donsel 2018-04-04 | All the stars are here. A high quality wave file version of this can be purchased at-payhip.com/b/2qRkThis music sounds best coming live from an orchestra pit, but I offer this recording as the next best thing: A light up-tempo orchestral piece with lush strings, harp, lively piccolos, celeste and muted trumpets. Think 1950’s Oscar’s ceremonies, or the soundtrack to a mental hygiene film strip of the same era. Or an over the top supermarket montage that turns into a dance number. Or make a perfect meatloaf every time with this beautiful new G.E. oven and range with convenient side oven! (Now available in flamingo pink and seafoam green!)
Velvet Happy Hour Brett Van Donsel 2018-02-26 | A cheeky but still laid back 1960's swingin' bachelor pad ditty.payhip.com/b/1C3MPairs well with a martini in London. Smooth swingin' big band orchestration complete with harpsichord and vibes. Also featuring harmonized full saxophone section soli, upright bass, trombone, piccolo, sort of Henry Mancini, Austin Powers powers on a more reflective day, Mr. Incredible coming back from retirement, or James Bond mixing business with pleasure, shaken not stirred.It's a mixture of acoustic and sampled instruments. The guitar part is me playing on a Heritage H-575 hollow body acoustic guitar. It's a mixture of the signal from the pickups and a ribbon mic out in front of it. The drums are almost all real instruments except a few cymbal crashes and the hi-hats, which were serving as a click track. Ride cymbals and snare drums (brushes and subtle stuff) were worth the extra effort of playing acoustically rather than using samples. In my opinion it makes the who mix feel less stiff. The horns are samples (no kidding, right?) If any horn section is interested in donating their time to record it, go for it. I can send you a version with no horns and you can add them in. Saxophones are particular tough to recreate, so I find the best bet is to focus heavily on the parts working well from a writing standpoint before getting to hung up on the sounds. Good harmonization and voice leading and well defined articulation can do a lot to mask less than stellar sounds. (but you can't beat a real section) To hear some "real" tenor sax playing, check out Steve Johnson featured in my track "Flowers of Rio Branco". It's somewhat in this vein, but leans into the BossaNova Chet Baker angle of the bachelor genre.
