Amazing vocals who is singing love it 🥰

Well this was totally a Majestic Ride in the West John and Matt and what a superb piece of music and Production and very well enjoyed my good friends...

Really just great Genial. The instruments clearly fit together really great pieces of you because you can only write positive these great choral accompaniments on the right site adapted. One can see not only did I taste the others like her music. It reminds one of film music more beautiful so very great job they are doing my most respectful

Wow! enjoyed this very much! I'm a fan of this composer's western music; this is so beautifully mixed with crystal clear production and such a delicate haunting emotive feel-what a fabulous cover!

muitas lembranças, quando eu era criança , junto de meu saudoso pai viamosmos esse filme,e essa linda música.

Welcome to our version  (experimental )  on Ennio Morricone’s  “Once upon a time in the West (theme)”
We wanted to do an experiment, make a piece in complete free hand (free motion) without metronome, starting to create choirs first to make them sound as realistic as possible, and then create an orchestra around those tracks.

We split up the song in 2 parts, as by hearing the original soundtrack has 2 different rhythms / tempo’s, and we worked on those 2 parts separately, without consulting each other as we normally do by Skype, email  or telephone.

As we all know people hear and experience different things in music, and we just wanted to see how close our creations would come together in the pre-production, when all the tracks were completed,  I cut all the tracks in bits of 1 second, and I allowed myself to make slight changes within parts of 0,125 second on all tracks to make both Matt’s and my instruments sound as smooth as possible, keeping the Ennio’s main theme sound recognizable for everybody, and still give it our own signature at the same time, because we don’t  want to sound like copy-cats.

Most musicians and composers will say that’s impossible, as we also thought so ourselves ( especially as Matt lives in England and I in Holland, so we can’t sit next to each other ), but we did it anyway, another prove that collaborating and creating music together for almost 3 years, makes us a solid team, and we understand each other almost blindly, and I am very proud of Matt what he has accomplished through the years, and honored to work together with him.
Although this may not sound exactly like the soundtrack most of you know it, we hope you will enjoy our version too.

We are planning to do the “final” of Ennio’s composition (which is longer) later this year, with real voices.

Composer:  Ennio Morricone
Arrangement:  John Styles & Matt Baker
Instruments & voices:  Matt baker & John Styles
Producer:  John Styles

All your comments and advices are very much appreciated as always, all the best for now, John Styles & Matt Baker 


John Styles & Matt Baker - Once upon a time in the West

I am John de Bruijn, born in Holland in 1956, since 1972 I'm a songwriter, composer, producer and arranger by the name John Styles, and I recorded several songs within different Projects also with other groups.
I wrote a lot of ballads in the past also for other artists, when i started working within Projects, I started into making background / theme-music for docu's, movies & commercials, and I still do.

For more then 9 years I work together with http://soundcloud.com/matbaker1970, we composed and co-writed together for Themes / Scores / Soundtracks for Films and Docu's, we hope our music might one day be featured in a Film, Docu or Commercial.
We released a charity album: https://soundcloud.com/onevision-crossworlds/love-hope-forever-preview
Our latest projects: https://soundcloud.com/feng-shui-music and we're now working together on Music4Brains Project, in which we're creating music for people with brains enjury, anxiety and overstimulation problems to help them to coop with their dayly problems accepting different types of sounds & noice. 

Our band: http://soundcloud.com/euphoriqa includes Hemmo ( http://soundcloud.com/age-r ) and Ralf ( http://soundcloud.com/bingzhu ) were making covers for fun, we also compose / write songs, which could be used as soundtracks or themesongs too.
With https://soundcloud.com/quenya-projects we ask other musicians to join us to collab on NewAge, Celtic and Folk / experimental type of music.

I also collaborated with many artists over the years, We found the right way to work together, talking on the phone or skype discussing what or how we want things to be build up, and keep sending tracks back and forth till we're all satisfied.
The nice thing of working into those Projects is that you can help new talents on their way, and working with them also gave me other chances, and I became a allround songwriter / composer within all styles and types of music.
I traveled all over the world to scout for new talents, which made me a more fulfilling person, and I feel rich (not moneywise), being so close to so many cultures I learned so much, and I also make Therapy Music for about 10 years now.

I am very happy that my music helps so many people all over the world, and that I can use my talent to help others, so that my God's given gift can be spread out and touch others, I'm blessed to be able to reach so many hearts and souls.
Music is my drive, without it I wouldn't feel alive, it's also a therapy for me, and luckily my family supports me all the way, that makes me a very happy man, and hopefully you'll be able to hear and sense that within my music, ENJOY my music!!!!!
