Very accomplished track and I really appreciate how the playing is subdued and not overdone. I have a tendency to get carried away and it always impresses me when someone is able to avoid that trap. This is meditation music, and that is some of the best kind of music there is. What a pleasant listen. Peace, Six

i just wanted to keep it real simple. its wierd how some people dont like to play basic..and want to play for themselfs...an example is trying to get a drummer to play the same simple basic drum beat all the way through a song.....its hard for them to do it coz they just wanna hit a crash or do a roll...same with a lot of other musicians really...i just remember one simple rule....play for the song and not for yourself.

Thanks for the listen and review man :)

Very cool and mellow......sounds like a strat neck position single coil to me..hehe..sorry I just got one myself and I love thinking I can pick out tonal variations lol......I love the way the ocean sample blends with the guitar phrase...I think you could expand this into a great song....love the vibe cheers planet

i loved this track man. i know the aim is chill, but it seems kind of empty, maybe build it up a little then drop it back down man.

The main melody is a little similar to Robert Mile's Children, apart from that it's cool. Nice work.

This is really nice
I felt like I was at the beach!
I'm wondering where did you
get the water and beach ambiance from

I've been looking all over the place and
I can't find anything
:(

If you don't mind teling me where
I could find some, it will be much
appreciated

Excellent song
Favortied
:)

ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
hey thanks for the reply!. i will put the sample of the beach up now...un treated. and i will put the samples of the seagulls up also! i did pan the waves throughout to the song to different speakers to create the effect of the sea actually moving so you may have to do that yourself and also add some reverb too....reverb is always good ;)

thanks again!

I really enjoyed listening to this piece. Thanks for posting it.

What did you sample for the ocean waves/seagulls ambient noise? It fits the song quite well, and is very well balanced.

Also, any chance you'll put it up for download?
ChrisHall
ChrisHall replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
hey yeah i just sampled waves and seagulls...i think the waves need taking down in the mix slightly to be honest...need to export it and post it again. Are you wanting the samples of the ocean and seagulls? or the full song for download?

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.

Description : Miguel from Bolivia got in touch wanting to sing on my Dirge in Em track. You never know what to expect but in this case he delivered with this emotional and wonderful vocal performance. Thanks and much respect to him. LM wouldn't let me insert his U-Tube or Spotify links but I'm sure if you seek you will find.
