About this Theme
This theme was inspired by the great magazine style themes of Brian Gardner and Darren Hoyt. I took those elements that I liked the most in every theme and combined them together in one single theme. The different page templates are inspired by Brian Gardners "Revolution" theme, the use of custom fields is something I first recognized at "Mimbo" by Darren Hoyt. The Tabbed section in this version 2.0 is done by using ui.tabs by Klaus Hartl (stilbuero.de).
The Name of the theme was inspired by the famous American jazz sax-player, Branford Marsalis. Although I´m German, I decided to present this theme in english in order to make it available for a greater audience. German version may follow.
This is my very first WP-Theme and if you detect any bugs, please let me know. If you use this theme, please let me also know and make sure the copyright remains as it is.

Warung Kaki LimaIt’s always exciting on a trip to find a place to eat genuine dishes from the area you’re visiting. Local restaurants, cafes and bakeries offer a wide range of meals, sweets and snacks. In Jogja, some of the most authentic and unique foods can be found only in warung kaki lima, five legged stalls covered by tents. After closing, the tents are taken down and the mobile stalls are rolled away.
Delicate SweetsBasically natural ingredients such as santan, gula merah and pandan are used. Santan (coconut milk) is the most popular basic liquid component in Indonesian sweets. For sweetener, gula merah (palm sugar) is the national favorites. The aromatic pandan (pandanus leaf) gives green color and fragrance to the sweets. People also use pandan as well as banana leaf and janur (coconut leaf) – instead of plastic – for wrapping.

The Charm of SoloSolo, a city of half a million, seems like a sleepy little town when compared to the behemoth metropolis of Java. For this reason, Solo is often overlooked by tourists, who are lured to flashier destinations like Jakarta and Yogyakarta. However, beneath the seemingly ordinary façade of city life, lies a bubbling arts scene. My friends, Wulan and Bejo, were going to help me navigate it.
Make Mine a Big MacEven if you avoid fast food like the plague, you’ll surely admit that international chains that serve it can have a place in our lives.
