Let me me understand this ...... when you play all parts it's a FAKE sound.... but when you mute parts and leave just Auto Drums, Bass it's NOT fake sound anymore?... No wonder DJ's now rule the roost ... Ok back to playing fake music on my Roland EA7
Let me explain it in a easy to understand way
Bass, piano, and drums (you play the parts, not the arranger). Can't be any less fake then that
All out arranger parts , Can only come out as Fake ,fake, fake.
You are the only one on stage, and they hear 10 different players.. That is why we are asked "do you have this or that song in there"...Not believable, when we overdo it.
Fran I don't know what dance floor you filling with that I had to turn it off after 2 min......interesting but in no way the answer... times are changing in music worldwide...get on board.

That is why you missed the point again!!
If you listened to the video you can actually know why they could fill a floor (No I am not talking todays unhummm music, but good music written by talented composers)
Listen further to some Oscar tunes, and if you don't think a trio could command a dance floor.. I don't know what I can say.
Maybe that is why as you say there are no arranger players on stage.
"get on board".. not I, "pop" music is not my cup of tea..
Maybe you should just DJ, and you have the answer.

Remember, there are a GREAT many arranger players, many of them young. But not many in the U.S. Other parts of the world embrace arrangers to a much greater degree than we in the U.S. do. I used to be much more in the drums, bass, lead camp, but today most people are expecting to hear a much fuller sound. No right or wrong though.
Fran I understand but your in the minority in today's age ... but that ok no one really cares anymore that is apparent. glad I have channels on my radio to set to listen to MY music... really don't care what anyone else listens too any more... sadly there are too many branches on the tree...if you dig my drift.
