Big Willie...

in #dsound8 years ago (edited)

Continuing the unveiling of instrumentals in the Rok Sivante music production vault...

Nothing ever really came of this one, because the beat itself was never a complete song.

The beat was dope.

But it really needed the proper vocalist and lyrics to take it somewhere. And that didn't happen. (Yet...?)

Regardless, it feels a shame to have this sitting on my hard drive for years with no one ever having listened to it. So, unleashed, here and now, on dSound, it shall be...

(note: I'm not sure how I ever came up with the "Big Willie" working title.)

While I'd always want this to be beefed up bigger, deeper, heavier, and richer... I can't say I'm dissatisfied with this one.

The guitars... ah.

Thrown in with the cruncy claps, driving kick, and crispy phat cymbals...

Though this could surely use a professional engineer's touch, I was really going for the "larger-than-life" vibe with this one - and, managed to pull it off fairly successfully.

Though it's missing that final power-punch of the right vocalist, this work is still a gem.

Should I die prematurely... I'll be happy to know I've left this nugget on the Steem blockchain for finding, should anyone ever be inclined to dig back and discover it.

And in the meantime, it's a pleasure to share this gift with the community.

Though I've kept it buried for a few years, relistening to it is providing a fresh dose of rich inspiration. And it is my hope and intention that you may experience a dose of that same uplifting energy upon your listen through.

Do listen on your best set of headphones and/or speakers for an optimized listening experience.

And enjoy...

Personally i have always wanted to produce beats but never really had the nerve to start. This sounds really cool @rok-sivante.

Hopefully you find the right vocalist the beat needs.

I don't normally swear, but today I swear - @rok-sivante this beat/instrumental is so dope and amazing.
The drums, cymbals, strings, electronica, cords, and everything just went in with the flow and came out well.

I didn't know you could churn out something this amazing lol.
You're a star and should be producing for stars.

I wish you can find a great artist that will jump on it. I really do.

Thanks for sharing this cus I'll put it on replay for my tonight reading. I read with instrumentals on the background. It just make me concentrate - weird right?

Happy Steeming

With the photo in there and the way your post ended..... it reminded me of my Beats headphones. They were great.

Like really good.

When the car ran me over, they were smashed like the rest of me.

If anyone appreciates a good set of phones for your melon, I figure it would be you.

Have a good week dude.

I'm not much into music, but the instrumentals sounded like the ringtone from my nokia3310 :). I'm just kidding.

NIce piece buddy

I think you can go big, if you add a vocal to your tunes. You are good, but with the right vocal, this can go viral :)
Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work ! The title is perfect, don't change it.

Wow dude, It sounds very good!the guitar is mixed very well! Brilliant! 😉

This is super cool. I love the lag in the beat. Just slightly off the grid.

Okay im listening to that as a free stylist alto saxophonist vocal list gospel background songwriter and there is a lot of golden nuggarts here some very cool smooth riffs nice chords needs rearranging but could inspire me to have a go :)

I listen to a lot of your tracks recently but this is different.....Find some vocals for this one and it will be PERFECT!

Dude that clap sample is just amazing lol. Really nice track. Love what you did with the 'chorus' (as to where I'd hear vocals go). Wall of sound!

Thanks, man. 😊

I actually thought this was about surfing, but i can dig this cool beats regardless

incredible, continue always your best work, I really like it @rok-sivante

It is just after 1 a.m. here. I just found this and am rocking my effing face off...loud.

Much love.

Wow that shit is dope sir
