VELVET GROOVE | 70s Guitar Jazz, Soul & After Hours Funk

Welcome to the Velvet Room. 🎸🌙 VELVET GROOVE takes you into a small after-hours jazz club where the lights are low, the amplifiers are warm and the groove keeps going long after midnight. It’s 1:18 AM. The tables are almost empty. The stage lights glow deep red. The Hammond is still warm. The bass is locked in. And a hollow-body guitar begins another riff. 🎸 Hollow-Body Electric Guitar 🎹 Hammond-Style Organ 🎸 Electric Bass 🥁 Acoustic Drums 🎷 Tenor Saxophone 🎹 Occasional Rhodes Electric Piano Inspired by the warm, raw sound of the 1970s, this album explores Guitar Jazz, Soul Jazz, Jazz-Funk and Funky Soul through 14 original instrumental compositions. Every track stays at exactly 98 BPM, creating a steady after-hours pulse from beginning to end. But this is not one groove repeated 14 times. The guitar changes its role throughout the session. Sometimes it opens with a memorable single-note riff. Sometimes it plays warm octave melodies. Sometimes it locks in with the bass. Sometimes short muted chords become part of the rhythm section. Sometimes the Hammond takes over. Sometimes the bass and drums carry the entire groove. And one track removes the guitar completely. The tenor saxophone appears only when the music needs another voice — answering the guitar, adding a soulful melody or stepping forward for a short solo. Different riffs. Different basslines. Different melodies. Different grooves. Different arrangements. Different conversations between the musicians. One band. Fourteen original compositions. One long night in the Velvet Room. The sound is warm and organic. Slightly gritty guitar amplifiers. Deep electric bass. Dry drums. Vintage Hammond. Soulful tenor sax. Human timing. Analog character. No rush. No polished modern sound. Just musicians finding the pocket and staying there. 🎧 Perfect for: • Late-night listening • Working and creative sessions • Studying with groove • Reading • Driving at night • Coffee and vinyl nights • Relaxing after dark • Background music with personality • Soul Jazz lovers • Guitar Jazz fans • 70s Jazz-Funk sessions Deep bass. Warm tubes. Dry drums. Soulful guitar. It’s 1:18 AM. The room is almost empty. Red lights fall across the stage. The drummer finds the pocket. The Hammond answers from the corner. The bass settles into the groove. Then the guitar plays that riff again. Welcome to the Velvet Room. 🎸 Guitar. Soul. Groove.
