Superbe♥!!! Encore un magnifique morceau♥ Bravo à vous 2!

Roberto B (https://soundcloud.com/mgxloop and https://soundcloud.com/volt5000) and I are glad to present “Fierce and Proud", as track 9 in our new collaborative album of 2022 under the title 'Let There Be Peace!". This is, in fact, our second song (after “Never Let Me Go” and many joint instrumental compositions), acknowledging gratefully the use of vocal samples from MAGIX, selected and integrated by Roberto B.

The track was created in collaboration on 9 and 10 March 2022 (initial mix and recording in MAGIX by Roberto B) and 19 March 2022 (subsequent additions and final mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro X by Alex M, in effect, extending and arranging a draft of 2 February 2022), and posted here on SoundCloud on 20 March 2022 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the track uses a photo taken (on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean near Aveiro, north Portugal) by Alex M on 21 February 2020, cropped and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 20 March 2022 - in coordination and agreement with Roberto B.

Thank you, Roberto, and our anonymous MAGIX vocalists, for our 2nd - inspired and spontaneous - collaborative song!

Duration: 9:10 minutes

Fierce and Proud - Roberto B & Alex M

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
