This is the beginning of a new song. I am setting aside Atlas and Sidewinder (only for now!) so I can continue practicing with new sounds. Hopefully, my goal is to keep learning enough about multiple ways to get a song rolling so I can rework my previous projects.
Chesapeake Dreams attempts to fulfill some of the goals I have had for my previous tracks: groovy basslines and lush pads, with emotional melodies. The name of the song is based off of the area I grew up in, the Chesapeake Bay area. The Chesapeake Bay is one of the world's largest estuaries, filled with millions of wildlife (fish, eagles, herons, crabs and other aquatic life.) The song is sort of a hope that we can improve the things we treasure or take for granted. I have worked on this song while viewing a background of sunsets over bodies of water, to bring about a sort of calm, relaxed feel to the song. No telling yet where this song will take me, but so far, it's moving in a direction I want it to go. It's only 1:44 long.
So, I share these thoughts with you.
