some stuff i really like:
"fado ladino" by rosa negra (the album of the same name is great)
"lua" by mayra andrade (the album navega sooo good)
baden powell's disc Afro Sambas is awesome
bob azzam's version of "rain rain go away"
bob dorough's "3 is the magic number"
the hungarian dances by brahms
"alabama" by coltrane
danza macabre by camille saint sans
One thing i noticed about this piece is how much i like to hear the same melody played with different timbres
"eli" by caribou
"gymnopedie #1" by erik satie
this song shows how simple something can be while still being amazingly beautiful
"nora luca" (the version with accompaniment) from the movie Gadjo Dilo
this melody kills me
what have you guys been listening to?
more reference tracks for checking mixes?
