quick Jazz made in Reason 4

i know it's a bit messy, but this is an example of how it is possible to make songs in Reason with little or no experience. this took me all in all about 45 min. to make, and everything except the drum loops, is played by me on my M-Audio Oxygen 49. enjoy

yo big up, im intrested in what kind of organ like sound you used which fades in around 6 secondes :W

@prinsje99 it's a standard rhodes sound, but with a bit softer eq. makes it sound more chill

hi im really intrsted in Jazz, could you explain the basics drum pattens to me like were would my kicks snars and hats go if i was zoomed into the 16th of a bar? and what sort of tempo(bom) should i be on ruffly?

I'd apreachiate the insight! kuz like i said i'm really intrested in jazz but if you look up how to make jazz music on google you just get bombed with info on the blues scale which i know is relavent and its somthing i am lerning BUT WHAT I REALLY NEED TO KNOW IS ABOUT DRUM PATTERNS!

@ceetheproducer well, in this particular song, i just found one of the preset drumryhtms in Reason. something low tempo... about 80-100 bpm, and with a funky feel to it, but still what they would call a standard drum rhythm. in more regular jazz, they tend to use brushes and shuffle rhythm, and a bit higher tempo, so it all depends on what you're aiming for. btw, i'm not an expert in any way, but that's the experience i have :P... hope it's useful. ask anytime if you want to know more.
