So fun
The recordings are incredible. Feels so good to play with these amazing rhythm sections. The UX could use some work - not the most intuitive, and my biggest issue as a pianist is that every time i open a new tune, I have to re-mute the piano, which is annoying. But it’s early days of the app and I’m sure it will only improve from here.

Brilliant app, get it!
I’ve tried a bunch of jazz play-along apps over the years, and this one is on a whole different level. The biggest thing for me is just how good it sounds. The rhythm sections are absolutely on fire. Instead of feeling like you’re practicing with a backing track, it feels like you’re playing with a real band that’s actually making music.
It’s honestly made me want to practice more. I’ll open it up planning to play for 20 minutes and an hour later I’m still going because it’s just so much fun.
Another thing I love is that they’re always adding new tunes. It feels like getting little surprise gifts every week because you never know what’s going to show up next. Every time I open the app there’s a chance there’s something new to dig into, and that keeps everything fresh.
If you’re into jazz and want something that’s actually inspiring to play with instead of just functional, definitely check this out. It’s become one of my favorite practice tools.

Position playback crutch
This apps inability to hide playback position will be a crutch for musicians actually working towards playing with real musicians. Sounds great, but does not help you learn to keep the form. IReal you can have it only show the top of form. This way you can think where the top is and compare to reality. Vs having your hand held to entire time. This is a core feature for backing track apps will happily update review when fixed.

The BEST Jazz play along period.
Hands down, the only Jazz app you need. I’ve tried them all and The FEEL BOOK is it. World class musicians laying down tons of feel on every track. The catalog is already a lifetime worth of studying if you want really get better at Jazz. New tunes are added regularly. Yes it’s subscription, but support the musicians who create the tunes so the FEEL BOOK can keep putting out high-quality tracks. The value is insane! Keep it up!

Wonderful! Bummer it’s a subscription
This app is incredible, specially if they keep adding new songs. The tracks sound super clean and are wonderfully fun to play with! Really sad it’s a subscription service instead of, say, a $15 or $20 one time payment, but I guess for this quality it’s worth it.
