drummer, bass player needed for instrumental project

Peru IL

Description

Looking for drummer/programmer and a bass player for instrumental project in and outside the Illinois Valley, Starved Rock State Park area. Originals and collaborations. Improv minded. Jazz aware. Funk friendly. Rock experiments. Soundtrack-y stuff. I play keyboards primarily, some bass guitar, standard and alternately tuned 6 string guitar and whatever else is needed for my recording projects which most often includes a drum machine, or a sampled/ looped beat currently. I use voice samples and effects too but only in recordings. Bring your beat and your bass-line. Not looking for blues or cover projects, my focus is on originals. I prefer playing music that has specific parts to it but also some open jam space within it. But this is all talk. The music and the moment will decide the style. Ultimately, the intention is to get a handful of listenable songs together and play live. I have a number of pieces that do not particularly fit a style, that's why on my SoundCloud I don't have #tags set for style of music. These are only to get an idea of the ballpark I'm in. I'm not all midi'd up with synths and sequencers at this time, nor do I read or write music. Anyway, if you have a few moments to kill https://soundcloud.com/instant_ventriloquism/sets is where you can find my playlists/tracks. Let me know if you have music parked anywhere online. cheers, Jim
