What's up Steemit peoples!
I haven't participated in the #beatbattle for a couple weeks now, and decided to make an entry for this weeks contest! The theme this time is "nostalgia," and we were to submit a song that evokes some type of nostalgic feeling for us.
The song I have chosen is from an EP I did with an emcee who goes by Fayro titled False Advertisement. I am working on getting him over to Steemit, so hopefully he will be joining us before too long!
This song gives me a feeling of nostalgia for a couple reasons. First of all, this is the first collaborative EP I have ever done, and the first body of music I have released to the world. Aside from having personal nostalgia, the song itself makes you think it would be playing during a love making/sex scene on an 80's movie. I swear I've heard that type of tom/clave and strange vocal "ahhhhh" sound somewhere before on an older song, I just can't place it.
Another funny story about the song: a rapper who was potentially going to collab on this track declined because it reminded him too much of something Phil Collins would do. LOL! Listening back to it, the beat itself does give you this "In the Air Tonight" type of vibe. What do you guys think?!
Thanks for stopping by! I always love participating in these, and look forward to checking out the other entries.
