This song is created from scratch. The bpm is 115.
Inspired heavily by Bossa Nova, this song is meant to represent the calming evening feel, as if one were relaxing and watching the sunset on the beach. It is happy, relaxing and joyful.
The Jazz Guitar acts as the bass throughout the song, supporting the song's main character (Bossa Nova). The Harp and Piano play on top, with simple and happy note progressions. The percussion from the SC88 Standard Kit and Maracas is simple and relaxing, and picks up when the accordion is introduced, making the song feel more lively.
The song then proceeds into a different key, as it progresses towards the end of the song. This adds more 'flavour'.
When the key changes, the accordion is introduced and harmonises with the other instruments making the song feel more 'full' and 'supported' (I feel as though a piano and harp on its own completely would make the song feel bare).
It ends with just the Piano, mk1 rhodes (electric piano) and Celesta, closing off song in a serene and mystifying way.
