Addicted to You~

addicted? to who?! hehe...no lah..i am not into a person lar...

lately, i am getting more and more addicted to jazz.

i have always been a fan of jazz. love the syncopated rhythm, the creative improvisations, the "jazzy" chords, the running blue notes, the softness, the calmness and the sexiness it echoes, down to the instruments used...instruments? yeah, speaking of instrument, i think that the sexiest instrument must be the SAXOPHONE! i was like WOW! whenever the music enters into the saxophone solo part. What about piano then? well, piano is not sexy, it's about ELEGANCE. piano jazz are very nice, sometimes playful, it emits an air of peace and tranquility. AHHH...i am going crazy!!!

i always imagine rainy days, lying down on a soft comfy sofa, sipping a cup of hot latte or a glass of the finest wine while listening to the ever-soothing jazz. ah...the blissfull feel. or coming back from a tiring work, then retiring to the cosy sofa, legs stretched on the coffee table with the jazz on..you will fall asleep without bathing that day...oh! or another scenario: you dip yourself in a jacuzzi, closing your eyes, you immersed yourself into the jazzy tunes (then, you fall asleep?)

ok ok! these are very old fashion scenarios indeed. but, this is how i really wish to enjoy music.



surf through the internet for some nice jazz and stumbled upon live-piano.com, which at the moment is featuring a German pianistin gitta hauenherm. sie spielt sehr gut klavier! too bad that all the audio clips are just for preview. anyway, i love her version of "girl from ipanema" and a few others too. then, there's this musician who compose jazz pieces, aaron goldberg. after listening to his album, i felt like running off to the nearest video store to grab his album. i want gitta's album too! going NUTSSS!
