Analyse de l'application Genius Jamtracks pour le 27 février

The New Way to Practice Jazz! Genius Jamtracks is the play-along app for jazz musicians that thinks and plays like a real trio. With impressively realistic sound and feel, it helps you expand your repertoire, develop jazz vocabulary, and master polyrhythms. We’re thrilled to introduce New Standards: 101 Lead Sheets by Women Composers—a monumental effort led by Terri Lyne Carrington, founder and artistic director of Berklee Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice. What musicians are saying: “Genius Jamtracks is easily the best play-along app out there! The piano voicings are logical and realistic, and the bass and drums use actual jazz language instead of simple repetitive patterns. It’s as close as you can get to playing with a real group. Highly recommended!” ~ Paul Bollenback “It’s like a jazz musician wrote it! The drums and piano play just like a real jazz drummer and pianist. It couldn’t have been easy to create this!” ~ Steve Beskrone Why It Sounds Great: - A Real Swing Feel: Unlike other play-alongs, Genius Jamtracks changes the swing feel naturally with tempo adjustments. The app swings because it’s based on real transcriptions from jazz masters. - Dynamics, Space, and Feel: The Genius Jamtracks trio pays close attention to dynamics, note durations, and feel to make practicing as authentic as playing with a real band. - Actual Voice Leading: No matter the settings, the pianist maintains excellent voice leading, and the bassist creates beautiful, flowing lines to accompany you.
