But there's always Garage Band, which, all cynicism aside, can produce some nice stuff - especially if you were to go for something pared down, syncopated and a bit 'jazzzzzzz' :Dtutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5929150461646356892.post-41556448313642272662011-08-06T00:26:50.785+01:002011-08-06T00:26:50.785+01:00I have a mid-century American influence going on f...I have a mid-century American influence going on for sure.<br /><br />I could imagine some early Louis Armstrong.
