about

When writing ‘Its Like a Telephone Singing’ I imagined the song you hear when the day has almost ended and the night is about to begin. It starts in the chill ambient zone but then switches mood to have you thinking about what is to come......that 6pm or 7pm number. Maybe at a beach club or even bar when there is that intersection between day and night (what has been and what will be)

The track started as a funk composition built on a 3 chord sequence and electro bass then I stumbled upon a great Moog Lead patch from a download which took it into a kind of ambient softer space for the chorus, something like you might expect from AIR or Moby. From there I really wanted the song to evolve and change ending in a kind of uptempo 'coda' - something you don't see much of these days!

Like a Telephone Singing' fuses many musical genres - smooth funk to playful woodwind with an organ that fills the space with synthwave warmth. I didn't focus on genres, just wrote it to be an uplifting, original electronic track and that evolves over time to change energy levels, also surprising the listener and carrying them away in thought.
