Good Evening (here in the eastern US) ...

We've always been big fans of Spanish influence music. This is a wonderful trip to that port city. Very nicely put together. Nice selection of tracks and mix.

I was in Cadiz back in the late 70s. Lived in Germany at the time. I took a trip to Morocco and stopped in at Cadiz before going to Gibraltar. It's a very pretty town and your music captured its character quite well. I enjoyed the journey!

Wishing you everything good this year.

Alan & Di

Thanks Alan & Di. I've never been to Spain myself (but it's on my bucket list). I have only seen it from a distance, having passed through the straits of Gibraltar on two occasions. The choice of Cádiz for a title was just random. Glad to know that it actually fits! wink

Brian..I liked this track alot..very 'appropriate' to the style, and a good choice of RT's.
What I took away from this, as an instrumental, is how smart it is to create a simple melodic pattern that is the core, and to build around it. Each time your little descending=note motif repeated, it was like a familiar sight coming into view, with little side-trips of variation. I think it is architecturally very sound, and thoroughly enjoyable! Great work!

Thanks for the insightful critique, Tano.
I started with a fairly simple chord progression and worked out a basic melody from there. I suspect that the "side-trips of variation" you mention can be attributed more to short-term memory loss than to clever construction.
Glad you liked it. Take care.

Hi Ghostgum,

It is a very beautiful soundtrack that you propose to us. The melody is superb. The sounds tell me that you must have been a fan of shadows (I may be wrong). It's truly pleasent

Kindly regards
Take care of you

Thanks, Derochette. Yes, you are correct. I have been a big fan of the Shadows since Christmas 1959, which I spent with my cousins in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire. They (my cousins) lived right across the road from a certain Harry Webb (better known as Cliff Richard) and all the neighbours were treated to free weekly concerts (otherwise known as practice sessions) which emanated from the Webb household in the early years.

Ghostgum,

Really cool instrument track—definitely emanates that Spanish feel. Great song structure and excellent layering of the various instruments. Very well done!

Best regards,

Deej
