Yo yo my steemian friends!
I present to you my entry for this weeks sml challenge titled "Sleepy Savannah"
When I heard the theme was Island music I immediately thought of tropical house and reggae, but I didn't want to make either because that just seems like what everyone's gonna do. So I thought of Islands like madagascar where there's tribe people and started working on an intense drum rythym.
Once I got to the point where I thought the drum beat was lit I added a bass, some minimalistic instrumentation and was like "damn that's dope".
But it wasn't enough for me.
That's where the "Sleepy" part of the title comes from; I added some airy pianos in the chorusy section stretched the track out and here we are.
I'm gonna be making a technical rundown of the track in form of a dtube video so stay tuned for that( upload either today or tommorow) and if you want to use the beat for rap go for it :)
The picture was taken by @laumi who's doing a travel blog about his numerous trips to africa
Anyways hope you enjoyed the track and peace out :p
