This week jazz group Shards of Reason climbs a notch into the peak position on Jazzy Lounge Top 25 with "Goodbye, She Said" from their newest release The Saturday Bridge. "Goodbye, She Said" begins as a gentle, melancholic piano solo joined harmonically by the bass around the 1:00 mark. The jazz elements of piano, bass and drums blend around the 2:00 mark. Shortly thereafter we listen to Beth Freeman improvise off of her chord based melody.

Jumping from # 18 to # 4, Naoki Kenji's "Uschiu No Daikan" from the compilation Chill On The Moon moves into the number one spot in it's 15th week in rotation. Naoki has crafted a subtle downtempo tune with a soft, mellow bass line, stabbing keyboards and swirling synths. Listen very carefully as there are layered sounds that you could miss from casual listening. Never overpowering, just cool and mellow throughout the length of the track.
