The morning after

Aug 15, 2022, 08:08 AM

Composition by Helder Rock. 

"“The Morning After” is a composition all inspired by the sound I was allocated: Coffee Grinder - Krups Type 207; therefore, as I only drink coffee in the morning, I had the idea of representing through an atmospheric music, using synthesizers, someone dreaming and then being awaken by a blackbird singing in the morning and then go and prepare a coffee. 

"The original recording was added in a mix where I used a recording I made of a blackbird that everyday sings near my balcony, and then some sound effects of a boiling kettle and the final preparation of a morning brew."
