Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends.

Hi everybody.

Some of you may know my other blog, others may not. Either way, thanks a lot for checking this blog out! What to expect? Expect some very cool and smooth stuff that's perfect for listening to after a hard day of work.

Let's start off right away! There's this song I can't stop listening to by a musician I discovered not too long ago (I know, shame on me). His name is Dexter Gordon and he's a brilliant saxophone player. The sound that this man produces is so smooth that it gently strokes your eardrums until you find that split second of inner peace. In my opinion, that's what music is supposed to do to you.
Fun fact about 'Dex', he was 6'6" tall (for the Europeans: that's almost 2 metres!), which is why he got the nickname 'Sophisticated Giant', also the title of one of his albums.
Enough about Dex, let's listen to my favorite tune of his.
PROTIP: this music (and frankly all of the music that will be posted on this blog) goes great with Rainy Mood. Just open the link in a new tab, I promise it's worth it!

EDIT: because I'm such a great guy, I put the Rainy Mood sound in the top right of this page so you don't have to open an extra tab every time you open this blog. I know, I'm awesome.



By the way, let me know in the comments if you have any difficulty reading this page with the picture in the background (and also what you think of the music of course) :D

  2. I always enjoy a good bit of Jazz every once in a while. In fact, my hometown holds a world famous Jazz Festival yearly, as we used to be home to Conn, Selmer, and is still home to Bach and Gemeinhardt.

  7. Don't usually listen to jazz, but it goes nicely as a backround music. And yes the text is hard to read because of that backround.
