Description
This is a chill lounge jazz remix/cover of a pulsating techno battle theme.
I used FL Studio 21 to put together this remix. My favourite part was actually the solos - I decided no lounge jazz act was complete without some solos and had fun sneaking a few other FF8 OST references into them!
This was the first time I have composed jazz in FL Studio, and I decided to do so manually without the use of swing. This was an added challenge due to needing to keep all the moving parts in time but I think this approach helped give the track a much more natural and organic feel - automated jazz just wouldn't sound right!
