Promenade - Africabean

1st Dec 2009 14:34 - 16 years ago
Description : I wrote this as my first piece thinking of different emotions and how they can all affect one person in a moment or in a larger space of time. The title and feel was not planned, but it is called Promenade because it makes me think of the boardwalks that walk over the breaking sea's water. The noise around, the views of the sea and of the bustling people - and then being able to focus it all out and just breathe in the air of the sea and it's awesome tranquility and view!

I was given Sony Acid Pro as a gift and I was hooked due to my passion for music and artistic passions. I used mostly links and loops from the programme but I also used one or two tracks from this forum, The main one was the first piano piece and although I have forgotten the name of the person - thank you so much and if you hear this, please let me know it was you!

Anyhooo - enjoy it! The Promenade awaits

Nice production, I agree with 'siensystem' the track's got good volumes throughout. Very peaceful and serene, yet got that street vibe with passive aggressive beats. I like the soft scratching towards the end. The break at 1:37 caught me off guard and I wasn't sure if it worked at first but I soon back into my groove and found it made sense. - DF

Very nice and relaxing tune. It always gives me a great feeling insidewhen i discover a song using one of my loops. That 1st piano loop is mine and thank you for immortalizing me in your song!!

hi there africabean and thx for your e-mail. that piano part is really luvly also I like that track description and I think that this result kinda matches it real good. I can imagine someone walkin slowly on some promenade in front of the beach hearin the waves of the water and havin alot goin trough his head.. then comez the changes which seem very fluid (great scratches too btw they not easy to implement without gettin annoyin) and the mastering is real good keeepup man u def got a talent cheeerz from dusthill

Very nice, soothing, mellow and put together and blended so very well.
Sony Acid Pro is great, been using six, until my last song I uploaded today.....I find it more user friendly than FL7 or Sonic....And I have them both........

A very nice collage of colorful sounds. The drums are nice and take the track along. Very nice balance as well, nothing too prominent or too low. Nice work.

Something waaaaaaay different. LOL.
Ok, so my friend and I were drinking few weeks ago and we came to idea, as he have 3 small children, to make song for children (nursery rhymes). It was really fun to do and a lot of effort, expecially with vocals. Maybe we will make more in future.
Song is in Croatian, English translation in lyrics.
Love and peace.
