Looking for "Gypsy Jazz" style

I would like to find a style for playing Gypsy Jazz on my PSR-SX900.
The accompaniment for this style is usually 1 acoustic double-bass + 1 acoustic guitar (doing mostly dry down strums or quick down-up, no sustain - the sound is muffled, with accent on 2nd and 4th) and no drum. The French name for it is 'La pompe'  ;D

Thanks in advance and regards from Paris

Hello,
On your keyboard you have the FrenchJazz style under the Jazz group.
If you turn off all unwanted parts, does the bass and guitar play the parts you are looking for (maybe add a strumming multi-pad as well)?

Many thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a try and, while not perfect, it is suitable for training.
Now to tweak the multiple !

Hi Thierry,

you can download a zip file containing some "La pompe" type Styles here:

Some of these Styles sound very similar, but there could still be certain differences. So I recommend listening carefully to all of these Styles.


Have fun!

Best regards,
Chris

Hello Chris. I downloaded them too. Thank you so much for the styles :) This genre is way over my skill level, but I will have a go at it anyway.

Hello, 
Would like to add to the above reply that besides altering, deleting parts, you should try the drum breaks on the break variation
buttons,  There are terrific long  drum breaks , fills,,,, etc.     Fun to experiment.
