One of the more rockin songs from CenterPeace this one has a chill vibe on the verses but then breaks out heavy in the choruses. A sweet and melodic bridge satisfies the desire for a mood swing then it's into a shredding guitar solo and chorus out.  This song blurs the lines between rock and electronic.

Songs from the Womb

Subliminal Messages

Slow steady groove almost disco but more Sade. A relaxing song but at the same time exhilarating to listen to with guitar and muted trumpet interplay and soothing background vocals. A half time bridge section with a cool understated synth solo and dreamy vocals leads to the 3rd chorus with a guitar theme taking front stage. The song ends with an instrumental "chill out" with mellow guitar fills and trumpet riffs.

Just Breathe

Track features chants in Arabic with choruses in English. Alto Sax enters in the pre-chorus and rides through the chorus bringing the song back to the west.  All live tracks, no loops or samples. In 7/8 time signature this song was inspired by rhythms learned on at tour through Tajikistan.

Children of the World

A very slow and emotion track centered around the grand piano supported by cello, strings and flute. A sexy female vocal track, soft acoustic bass and brushes support the subdued but strong song accompanied by String pads, minimal orchestration and a cool 6 bar alto saxophone solo just before the bridge.

Thirty Year Kiss

Builds slowly into a nice driving groove with subtle and mysterious overtones.  

God Speed

A smooth and soulful/jazzy 6/4 groove with a feel similar to a Bill Withers or Grover Washington Jr. vibe.  Featuring a shinning vocal track with lots of feeling and excitement and a 'guitar hero' solo this song flows with throughout.  Instrumentation is live ethnic percussion instruments; Tabla, Tonbek and Shakare, traditional drum set supported by keyboard, bass and guitar.

Generations

Groovy, moody, mysterious, passionate & sexy. This song has it all; a tight groove and great bass line, tasty keyboards with sparsely used sound effects but what stands out is an amazing vocal track. One off the smoothest singers you will ever hear, she brings a feeling of yearning and desire to the track and gives it sex appeal!! The song climaxes with a theatrical bridge which leads to the perfect guitar solo. A very pleasing track to listen to; inspirational and euphoric, this one will take you on a journey.  Headphones (ear buds) required.

Falling Deeper

Dance club feel. Synthesizers, electric guitar, live percussion and vocals. Driving beat with a bit of traditional disco sound but modernized. Sonically pleasing with an up-lifting fresh sound. Very percussive and groovy.

Zen Again

Nice easy feel and a hypnotic beat with electric keyboard and acoustic guitar arpeggios. Live Udu drums play a medicinal beat over soothing pads and you'll even hear a harmonica in the choruses if you listen close. A seductively sincere vocal track telling a story of what the earth might say if it could talk.  Gentle song with a subtle but steady African and drum patterns blending with western harmony and melody.

Make Believe

Easy going dance groove similar to Sade's more up-beat stuff.  A Native American flute theme brings the song into a tasty guitar solo. A strong hook with vocal improvisations in the end rounds out the song.
