Lo-fi Noir Chicago Detective Theme - Thechockehold

Description : The guy who ordered this track didn't pay and doesn't respond to my messages.
So I deleted a private link and decided to upload this track here. The quest was to catch the old-school vibe of detectives of the 50s-60s in the track\loop for 30-40 seconds.
Any way job was done. It is recorded fully live on real instruments, about 3 hours of composing and recording.

XO.

Super hot production, but more you got the essence and vibe of the era. Nice double (or octave down, detuned C bass). Loved the counter rhythms. Atmosphere at its best!

Another masterful 38 seconds of absolute bliss :) Like many of the others, I would really love to hear a complete piece of yours. If you have a link to some of your catalog it would be great if you could post it. Again, quality, quality, quality work. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. I hope all is well.

I hope this wasn't the same guy...
I love your little orphan snippets. Looking forward to a full track of yours someday, maybe. You've got immense talent.

amazing job creating the detective atmosphere here, have you tried selling this to a film maker or a SD studio im sure they would take stuff like this for soundtrack collections.

hi there,
second time i listen to your track (first i wasn"t on my account so i could let a message)
i really like the ambiance, this alternance for the piano between short chords and longs chords is really great. The bass fulfills its role well by bringing heavy and disturbing side. Catching atmosphere in this one!

Congrats

Description : 'Taqdeer' in Urdu means 'Fate' or 'Destiny'. This is an Arabic /Hindi/Bollywood hip hop /club track. The drums are hip hop but the vibe is full sad emotional club vibe. It reminiscences of a man crying teardrops in a nightclub. That can be the best way to explain the vibe of this track. Hope you enjoy it!

Description : A high energy Afro fusion instrumental built around a driving rhythm, melodic elements, and a smooth, infectious bounce. The production blends energetic percussion with a melodic atmosphere, creating a versatile foundation for artists to bring their own sound and personality.

Perfect for artists looking for an energetic record with room for catchy melodies, confident flows, and expressive songwriting. Whether it's a feel good anthem, a hustle driven record, or a late night Afro fusion vibe.
