Give It Up For These Guys! / The Country-Fried Death of Great Aunt Hortense

Drifting Vhs

This is another “folk" approach to a cover song, in this case an all-time Motown favorite originally popularized by a 1968 collaboration of the Supremes and the Temptations (written by Gamble & Huff and Jerry Ross). Hard to match the vocal excellence of those two awesome groups but I just put a spin on it to channel the awesome emotive nature of the song. Got a little out of my comfort zone but for a base file done on my iPhone and with some grand help from my partner in music, Nat Daniels (piano & bass & production), I like the outcome.

I’m Gonna Make You Love Me (Motown cover)

Our "Croisière du monde" album in progress with Roberto B (@user-55822457 and @robertoiib) now continues with its 9th track, "Les délices de l'Orient" - or, in (our) English translation, "The Delicacies of the Orient". We hope you'll enjoy this collaborative composition of ours too.

The track was created in collaboration on 30 October 2021 (initial mix and recording in MAGIX by Roberto B), 23 November 2021 (subsequent additions, mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro by Alex M), 26 November 2021 (another mix by Alex M in Logic Pro) and 27 November 2021 (final mix in MAGIX by Roberto B), and posted on SC on 27 November 2021 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the album and all its constituent tracks was designed and implemented by Alex M on 29 June 2021 (in Tayasui Sketch in Mac OS), cropped by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 30 June 2021, and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 2 October 2021 - in coordination and agreement with Roberto B.

Thank you so much, Roberto - for the beautiful musical ideas that inspire again our new collaborations in this ongoing "musique de film" - and more - album, "Croisière du monde"!

In my music, I try to inspire me different forms that are in the nature, where microcosm and macrocosm intertwine closely.
It is really pleasant to be able to share our musics through our passions and ideas...
I currently have 67 Opus and all scores are available. 
Thank you for listening, comments and reposts !
