Sketch Today - Sketch The Day - Willbraham

4th May 2011 13:44 - 15 years ago
Description : This is sort of an homage song. To me it represents a perspective of the world through visuals and audio visuals, much like the excellent documentaries Koyaanisqatsi & Naqoyqatsi.

Life flashes before our eyes and we get to choose the soundtrack. Mine would be something like this track. Something old, something new, something catchy, something abrasive and always on the move.

Thank you always to all the Looperman.com members for allowing me to use your samples, without them I couldn't express myself in such a satisfying way.

The loops and samples were:
Prison Stuff - Buzz
Pad1_65bpm
Power_loop
Drumloop scene wzor 97bpm
Staccato Strings in G-G7-C-Cm
Upright Bass Blues Progression in F_-E-B-F
Piano w/ Guitar in F -C Dsharp - Asharp x2 (one with echo)

This was accomplished using SONY acid 7.0.

Thanks for any feedback in advance. Peace.

this is a mood provoking piece that gives a sense of serenity. Sounds like of something Moby off his b-sides. More and more i am seeing a depth in cinematic pieces that makes me appreciate the beauty in music..Pieces like this shouldnt go by unoticed. Very nice Mister Brahams

Thank you so much for your kind comments. With each new track I'm producing, I come to realize that my style is very much rooted in the cinematic. My goal (even before I knew I had a goal) is to provoke moods, very much so, and with this piece I wanted the listener to get the sense they were looking over the world, and all the busy activities on it (mostly the human side but some animals too). I also made a music video on youtube meshing the Qatsi trilogy. It is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZIPsth5dmQ
Thank you again, retronical for the love review.

It sounds like a portrait. The pads and synths give it a good jam session feel. Very pleasing to the ears. Tight work. Only 1 way but up!

It very much is a portrait. You are an excellent musician and have a very refined ear. Here is the video for Sketch Today (sketch the day) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZIPsth5dmQ

If you take a look, you'll see that my inspiration for the piece was very much as a portrait of our planet.

Description : Inspired by the Akon track from 2007, from the iconic album 'KONVICTED', when Akon used to be the number 1 artist in the world, I was a 11 year old, who had fallen in love with the song 'I Wanna Love You'. It was my favourite song back then and still is. I tried to create something similar. I made the beat myself then covered it with AI in my own voice. This is smooth RnB. Very romantic too. Hope you enjoy it!
