Off to a strong start here. Are the horns sampled, a VST, or are you playing? My biggest struggle with music is getting instruments I can't play (horns, as an example) to sound how I'm hearing them in my head

I'm not drawing a comparison to the music itself but it reminds me of what I like about 3 artists in particular: A Cloud For Climbing, Broke For Free, and Mesita. They, and you, layer a lot of sounds in a way that pleases me.

So most of the horns are samples, for example Beaches in My Sand is all samples. Doing Things With Stuff is actually a BBC Symphonic Orchestra VST I got for free a few years ago, so I was doing things with that stuff, if you get what I mean.

Recently I've been incorporating my own custom sub bass, like in Smoky Whispers and Whatchudoin' (SoundCloud).

A lot of my Jamns from January have custom sub bass, but those are 14 one minute tracks I did for a challenge.

EDIT: I forgot: Midnight Funk Train had a ton of horns, but it's all samples. The "flute box" in the middle of the song is several flute samples I threw on a drum rack and came up with a "solo" for them.
