one of a number of experiments on my learning
curve where a vocal sample or narrative drives/ creates interest for the track

Hey - thanks for checking out some of the old back catalogue (most is relegated to the dead zone of soundcloud to make room for newer experiments) - I like this one too : )

Pretty interesting track, like the concept! So that's the author reciting it? The music is impactful, goes well with the topic. Sax was a cool addition.

"And an invisible chicken in every pot", ha, great line!

Hey Wayne - thanks for listening mate - yeah thats Charles Bukowski reading his poem of the same name (whilst getting drunk - he was somewhat infamous with the booze) - he is writing about the rain in the depression ... hence the line but yeah its a good one

Wow must of missed this in your stuff mate, great experiment, it works, the pace is great, good beat and the sax drifting in and out, with Bukowski spoken word adding a resonance, definitely lazy day jazz approach, nice giving it a fav cos it's different and cool

Thanks - I was happy with this one even without the Bukowski but the cut up poem certainly adds some narrative structure

Buen tema amigo pseudoble. Me encanta que hayas utilizado un poema de Bukowski para arroparlo con ese fondo musical tan apropiado y alternativo. También he colaborado con algunos poetas y me sentido muy identificado contigo. Bravo.

Thanks

I think the success of the track might be more to Bukowski than me but I appreciate your compliment

And Yeah - I hadnt thought of Morphine but I used to listen to them a lot ... so many influences hey

Description : (26/50) D#nm - 180 bpm

Most of you know that I don't take myself seriously; I experiment, I just wing it, I don't care much about standards, and I don't care if the music industry takes me seriously, I'm just having fun. This is another one of those tracks where I turn everything upside down, an absurd story in a fast techno beat.

Only 1 sample used: Explosion-sfx by cbbk (2024).

Put on your dancing shoes and enjoy!

Description : I wanted to create a Punjabi euro dance anthem. The vocals are in Punjabi fused with mainstream Western dance music. Hope you enjoy this! Welcome to Punjabi - Dance Culture! The beat is proper Euro dance - hip hop which is a new genre in itself. Let'zzz gooooo!

Description : I continue the hybrid procedure of creating music. This is a relatively recent song of mine that after the in DAW processing it was used as a prompt with certain guiding choices to AI machine. What was produced was di novo imported into the DAW to be blended with the original recording. It ended to a long music piece which I believe can be of interest to the listener. I hope you will enjoy this listen. I think Rocking Ambient describes well the genre.

Description : Hard cinematic trap beat sampled from the iconic Turkish TV series "Ezel" soundtrack. Built with heavy 808s, sharp hi-hats, and a dark, dramatic atmosphere. Perfect for hard-hitting rap vocals and storytelling.
