ANALOG JAZZ PROJECT - NEW ALBUM "FOLIAGE" & COVER OF MR. MISTER'S "BROKEN WINGS"


Foliage is the debut album from Analog Jazz Project. It is a one man studio band created by Florida smooth jazz guitarist Mike Mangeoglu. On Foliage you'll find a mixture of Smooth, Acid, Chill, R&B, and Electronic Jazz. The music is all instrumental, laid back and mellow, driven by guitar solo's in the jazz style. The element that makes this band unique is all the instruments are played by one musician, all parts were overdubbed in studio. Most of the hooks were improvised and all of the guitar solos were improvised. It is good for relaxing to at home or in your car after a long day. Standout tracks include "Broken Hearts", 'Sunshine", and Loose Goose". The complete tracklisting for Foliage is as follows: 1. Clean Slate; 2. Loose Goose; 3. Sand & Sea; 4. Broken Hearts; 5. Sunshine; 6. New Funk; 7. Why 8. Chill Factor; 9. Pulse; and 10. Coming To An End. 

Analog Jazz Project has also just released a version of Mr. Mister's Broken Wings. This is an instrumental version of  the great 90's tune. It is driven by guitar, melody played on guitar and all backgrounds were done with overdubs by one player. According to Mike Mangeoglu, he says, "I have always loved this song and this band, I hope I did it justice."

We loved their version of Broken Wings and think that you will too - enjoy!

Both are out now and available at cdbaby.com

I think that this Analog Jazz Project is one of the better new smooth jazz projects out there. Can't wait to hear more from this guy in the future.
