Smooth Jazz Electric Guitar

Sometimes you feel like music that is not too distracting. Music that doesn’t need your full attention. Something with a gentle rhythm to keep you awake. Same pace as your heart, to keep you company in your journey, not to accelerate you. You love a nice guitar solo, but nothing aggressive, loud or raunchy. Then maybe listen to the album “Smooth Jazz Electric Guitar” by Dario Margeli. The melodies and arrangements are soft and smooth, so you can listen to the song while you work or read.

This recording fits perfectly alongside tunes by Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, Daryl Hall, Fleetwood Mac or Christopher Cross. It also feels right in the mix with recordings by Smooth Jazz maestros like George Benson, Norman Brown, Chris Standring, Nils or Larry Carlton.

Have you noticed that some people can work easily with music in the background while others need silence. This is because people who have suffered trauma get absorbed in music. So if anything, it is best to listen to something gentle, soft rock, yacht rock or smooth jazz.

The presentation song from Dario’s album is called “Childhood Trauma”. With breezy vocals, the lyrics of the song invite the listener to practice “mindfulness” by focusing on the feelings of sadness or tiredness they are experiencing. As Dr. Janina Fisher observed, people not only remember stories, they also remember feelings they memorized as children. The song asks you: Does this bad feeling you are experiencing correspond to something that is happening right now, or is it simply something you learned as a child? When we are kids, if we had parents that gave us no attention or activity, we may react by reducing out energy, as to not set our expectations too high for the day ahead. The child might also do that to protect himself from aggressive parents who want you not to be seen. As doctor Peter A Levine explains these reactions are recorded in neurons, which are not only present in the brain, but all over the nervous system that covers the entire body. So this debilitating feeling you may feel now might be childhood trauma or CPTSD. Being aware of this relationship with your childhood makes you more likely to questions feelings you feel. As The final hook of the song says: “There is no danger in the now”. It is just a visitor from the past.

There is also a music video with the lyrics of the song “Childhood Trauma” on YouTube. It also features the guitar player showing you how the song is played:

Dario Margeli has been releasing music since 2011. His music is non aggressive and pleasant.
