At night, visibility is low. At sea, tensions run high. We are not alone.
it's just you, your boat, and a sea monster.
This track is a cumulation of very dark and airy chords, arps and melodies, intense and slow brooding vocal samples, and a soft almost textural breakbeat. It's designed to be as chill as possible, but still retaining a light foot tapping groove. It's all meant to be one soft free flowing piece. It's also probably the darkest you'll likely hear from me (I know i 've probably done darker, but i think this is as dark as you'll get from me). It's definately got some unique harmonies here, i'm honestly liking the melody ideas a lot. In terms of arrangement is is quite simple, mostly focusing on the arps, the chords, the vocal samples and the melody among other things. Subtle additions over full on dynamic shifts as such. All in all i kind of like this, and i hope you do too. Enjoy!
have fun at the ohc. this is a recreation of a song called "intro" by ruthless juveniles with new lyrics. they were an old school new orleans rap group from the early nineties.
Something in the water?
