Flight Over The Golden Palace 


'Flight Over The Golden Palace' was created visualizing a celestial palace over lush green fields, rising above the clouds, with rays of sunshine giving a feeling of relaxation.


The music is used beautifully by my friend Jim Harmon, in his collection of excellent pictures 
he took of Rafting on the Ocoee River, in Tennessee. Video can be seen at:

Flight Over The Golden Palace

(Please use earphones - or connect the system to a 5.1 surround system for the best listening experience, thanks)
This track is dedicated to my friend Jim Harmon and the famous region popularly known as 'The Tail Of The Dragon'. Jim is an ace American photographer who has captured and brought out the beauty of the bikers (and car drivers) on this challenging road (http://www.jimharmonphotos.com/Tail_of_the_Dragon.html) and I got the idea of creating a music for The Tail Of The Dragon after knowing about it from him.

Therefore this music is more like a Theme Music or Soundtrack for a region that has a cult status among sports bikers and car drivers!

From wikipedia.org:
---
Deals Gap is a popular and internationally famous destination for driving enthusiasts(of motorcycles and sports cars), as it is located along a stretch of two-lane road known as "The Dragon" or the "Tail of the Dragon". The 11-mile stretch of the Dragon in Tennessee is said to have 318 curves.... The road earned its name from its curves being said to resemble a dragon's tail. The stretch bears the street name "Tapoco Road" in North Carolina and "Calderwood Highway" in Tennessee and is signed entirely by U.S. 129. State Route 115 is included on maps, and is the name used by Tennessee Department of Transportation for highway contracts.

While creating the theme music for this trail - I've used guitar, beats, echoes, delays, ambient effects to reflect the beauty of the trail in rains, depth of the valleys, adventure of driving on the tracks, the stormy wind at times, and the joy of driving. A dash of police radio crackling has been added at some places in the music going by the Hollywood style showing a cop going after speeding bikers :-) [the cops are indeed very active in this region as I am told by Jim]
Hope you like the track!


The Tail Of The Dragon

This is 2nd in the two part series of music on 'The Tail Of The Dragon'. If you liked the excitement and adventure of the first one in this two part series, that was created keeping in mind the riders pouring in for exciting times ahead at the Deals Gap (the Tail of The Dragon trail), then this one is created keeping in mind the return of the bikers back home with a feeling of satisfaction after having spent some good time and energy at the Tail of the Dragon, and therefore the mood is much more mellowed down and the cops chase and adventure are missing in this one replaced by some smooth music.
