Re: New CD Project - Looking for a Partner

Which is why I suspect Kris is going to have a hard time finding a taker, because he's essentially asking someone else to write his album for him. But you never know.

Honestly, if I was capable/willing to come up with a CD-length collection of booty-shaking beats and bass lines in the latest dance genre, the first person I would be calling to play on it would NOT be a musician who wanted "to portray a serious representation of jazz influences creative music over popular rhythm." Nope. I would be auditioning attractive female singers, cutting a single, and shopping it.

Kris, if I were you, I would look in to getting some of the latest/greatest sample CD's and use those. Maybe you colud augment the tracks with a live rhythm section after you've laid down your own playing.

Alternatively, find a local creative DJ and work with him. Many of those guys create at least some of their own beats,and they might be in to trying something new.

Just my .02
