Had this melody floating around my vacant head for a few days so I thought I'd do something about it.
I picked one of the rare quiet moments today and recorded the melody
I tried a number of different styles and decided it needed a Latin feel to it.
Rather than the bolero piano I used pop solo, which had much more flow to it. Also used dreamy guitars rather than the standard latin ones. For extra depth I added full orchestra strings from reason 10.
Hope it's to your liking ?

Autumnal Rendezvous

Good one Graham! Lovely production.

I really liked the video too!

Hope you are feeling better!

It's lovely but I find the bossa drums a little odd in this setting.
That's just me and my headphones I fear.

Thanks David there used to be an ad on TV here years ago for cough sweets. They were called tunes.
Perfect for musicians, tunes help you breath more easily LOL

Love it Graham!

What a tune Graham! Absolutely love the production on this. It sounds lush, and really gorgeous. The layering is magnificent, and that subtle bossa groove helps the entire thing float along perfectly.

You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing

Thanks Ray they sounded just about right at my end

A pleasant listen, Graham. Nice video.

Hiya Don,and thanks buddy

Hi Graham, what a marvelous song! The arrangement is wonderful to the ears and very soothing to hear. Great tone with the guitar and adding the piano to this is a nice touch. Well done!

Thanks Derek, must do a few more like this

Graham

Some pretty playing and a nice melody.
Enjoyable.

Peter

Nice and lush...

We always enjoy it when members take seemingly disparate RT/RD's make them work together. Good job!

And as always we much enjoyed your performance.

J&B

Cool tune Graham. You are a master with this instrument. Well done

Thanks Floyd

Hi Joe thanks for the comment

Lovely song Graham! I enjoyed my listen a lot!! You always do nice work! Thanks, Torrey

Thanks Peter glad you enjoyed it

Hi, Graham !:))


Wonderfully beautiful tune
you´ve written !
Does it sound a little Italian ?
It´s a tune that you want
to dance to on a moonlit
night with your loved one
in your arms !!! Just great !!!

Cheers
Dani

Very nice melody and production. I concur with Dani. I was thinking the same thing as I was listening--dancing with someone at some Italian locale.

As usual Great playing , the video worked well with the track.

The drums I liked ,kinda gave it the off beat to keep it unique.
Thanks

Thanks guys, it's all part of the wonderful fun of using the whole band in a box programme isn't it ? Messing around with so many different styles and seeing what works best

Hello, Graham

Very nice tune with Latin rhythm!
I felt Japanese melody in this song.
Is it because many Japanese children's song are made with reference to England and Scotland's folk songs.
Partial modulation in melody is very beautiful.
It is also fun to change accordion tones after the key change.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

A lovely, very melodic tune!! I love the Fall....my favorite time of year. This song has that celebratory feel that is perfect! Well played and conceived!! Take care. Greg

Thanks Scott, I do feel though I'd be conceited if I called myself a master.

Thanks a million Torrey

Hi Dani, yeah it's got a latin feel to it which was part of my intention

Beautiful, can see two people dancing to this. Yes, I also agree it could be in Italy.

Thanks for taking the time to listen & comment, much appreciated

Thanks Shigeki, so glad you liked it

Wonderfully relaxing. Very creative production.

Much enjoyed!

Hiya Greg thanks as always for the comments. I also love the fall, ( we call it autumn over here ). Never too hot and so much lovely colours around

Thanks Belladonna, I would be honored if somebody would dance to it sometime.

Nice, love the melody! Also liked the bossa rhythm, different but it worked.

Appreciate the listen and comment, thanks

Thanks Dave, love trying new things

Thanks for the kind remarks

Very nice soundscape, packed in an atmospheric autumn video.
Good work Graham!

Rob and Anne-Marie

Thanks a million guys
