You are sitting on a beach listening to the waves and daydreaming about your lover.

This is just a quick and dirty little ditty that JonD and I played.

BiaB style = New Age Alberti Piano & Strings. I deleted everything but the strings (violins & violas).

JonD is playing the arpeggios via his keyboard controller.

I am playing the cellos and double bass via my keyboard controller and the guitar.

We hope you like it for what it is.

This song really came together, and I think you guys did a really fun job on this one. I especially like the way the cellos sounded.

Thanks for sharing.

Great work on this MarioD! I found the overall tone of this to be very pleasing and calming. Fantastic choice of instrumentation. Definitely goes through a twist of emotions throughout this. Great use of SFX too, the water ambiance is very soothing! smile

Really calming, nice chords and I like especially the low instruments, hearing water-like sounds has a nice cooling effect for these hot summer days.

Mario & Jon,

Very nice. Very "new age"... people make whole careers on stuff that sounds like this.

Well done.

Wow - does this tune ever fit the title perfectly smile What a gorgeous peace of music! Reminds me of old Brian Eno tunes. Very peaceful and easy on the ears, which is never a bad thing.

Really well done - thanks for sharing!

Hi Mario,

I've said this before, but I'll say it again -

You should really be writing film scores!

Wonderfully atmospheric as ever, painting pictures as the music unfolds.

Super.

Hello, Mario

Very relaxing!
I entirely agree with Janne.
Really calming, nice chords and I like especially the low instruments, hearing water-like sounds has a nice cooling effect for these hot summer days.
It is extremely hot in Japan now.
The song is a summer evening material.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Mario, very nice tune, relaxing and evocative. I like this kind of music because it is interpreted in a different ways by different people. Very good job.

"Quick and dirty" sounds like a pro level production to us.

As we said at SC "classy and cinematic."

Great job y'all!!
