Nick Marks is one of those people who champion contemporary jazz funk, and every time I hear from him, I know I'm in for a groovy ride. His new sonic adventure, "the less i think, the more i do" is no exception.
The song, which features a myriad of great artists, is a gorgeous piano-driven instrumental that builds into an epic cinematic explosion of sounds, designed to make anyone feel better. Also, mark my words - play this and you will feel the start of your own movie.
"the less i think, the more i do" begins as somewhat of a raw idea, before it beautifully blooms with the help of Manchester's Untold Orchestra. Everyone involved turns this into a sonic river - enchanting, but powerful. What I appreciate the most about it is the fact that it balances beat-driven feel with orchestral color - light, melodic, and expressive without losing its groove.
