I'm working on a project right now, scoring for a film, I've had a few different styles of music for a couple o scenes I'm working on. One involves the need for a horn section, so I started thinking of my most favorite ones of all time.

Some of my Favs...

The Dap Kings-

Eazy E sampled lots of this song for his "No more questions" track. Go to 3:17 for the horns(?)



Some other brass I enjoy.











Hoping to add some more to my playlist.

I feel foolish for not adding The Funk Brothers to my initial post.... EVERYTHING Motown did with horns was AMAZING

The Dap Kings are dope, too bad Sharon passed.

When first saw the thread, it reminded me of a cool concert I attended at ACL. It was the Del McCoury Band with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band. It was an awesome show, so many badass musicians on one stage.

One major point I've overlooked here. @Rhino Are you a composer by trade? Tell me more.... I went to music school and then onto music college for four years before finding out I wasn't good enough to go pro sadly.....

I just bought tickets to see JJ and Mofro again. Love that band.



How is it that no one mentioned Chicago yet? For that time and what they were doing, having a brass section in a band like that was nuts.

By trade, I'm a rock/groove bassist who was brought up on Motown, Punk, and old school NYC Hip Hop. I've written and produced a lot of my past bands albums, and other projects... Along the way, I got into EDM because of doing Pyro & FX at those festivals, and I purchased some of that gear (Native Instrument production suites). They have thousands of samples and instruments and loops, so I started fucking around with it and put together loops of my own. Little by little with that and just me constantly writing, I started helping friends with grooves and loops for their video and film projects.

Music is subjective, we all know fuck all awful "pros", and have probably heard or have seen amazing "no named" artists.... If what you play fits a mood, song, arrangement, then you can be a pro

Very nice. I would say out of the few hundred musicians I went to school and college with, a handful are still making money from actual playing rather than teaching etc. Hats off to you mate. (How deaf are you? I've got rotten tinitus from drumming in small rooms.)

A little bit from Skerik playing with The Almighty God of Bassist's, Mr. Les Claypool.
