A new tune peak in from my upcoming album Pacific Lounge
Lost in Death Valley - Jazz Blues harmonica Feat the soulful Dick Aven on sax and wonderful L.A studio session percussionist Martin Flores. Track from my new album Pacific Lounge feat Brent Mason, Yussi Wenger Martin Flores, Dick Aven, Kiwin Leclerc, Sean Magee, Robert Hadley is available for pre order here : www.davidherzhaft.com
I play and programmed all the instruments on this track except for sax and congas. I really like this type of groove too inspired by the great Peter Erskine.
As far as effects my orientation for this album was to use subtle effects and I do use a bit of distortion but I mostly go for a clean acoustic sound because that's really my conception of the harmonica acoustic. I like to crank it up sometimes if it fits but you get so much more dynamics and natural effects when you play acoustic.
And I agree with you it's really a matter of taste :)
