Give me a jazz cover of Green Hill zone. That's all I want.

I enjoyed it overall

not sure how I feel about the blues vocabulary you put in there - I'm not sure it works that well when the harmony is based so much on Maj7 chords

the stops you put in also kinda interfere with the flow of the piece imo

I'd like to hear more rubato - you kinda hinted at it a little bit, but didn't really take it anywhere. the last chorus seems like it could be slowed way down

you also use the same voicings, and I'd really like to hear more variety in them. got anything 4th-based? any crunchy dominant chords? maybe some lydian stuff?

Oh yeah... I remember you posted another song a week or two ago, and that one was good too. 2 for 2, from what I've seen-- this is another inspired arrangement.

imo, I think you could use feedback from the OCRemix community to take your music to the next level. They could certainly help you improve from a production standpoint, if you care to. Compositionally though, I don't know if you'd have much to learn from them. I think that your left hand part could be more interesting if you revoiced those chords and broke them up a little, but I can't find fault with what you're doing with your right.

This is an enjoyable performance, no doubt about it. It doesn't really beg for improvement, but there's room for it if you feel motivated to put more work into it.
