Kimina - Baths

I recently graduated from the  SEMA Music Production course by Santuri East Africa. Sketching Sounds is a complication of 2 sketches I produced, wrote, mixed, and mastered for the course's final project.

The process behind the tracks:

1) To The Sun -
For the course final project, 1 of 2 assignments entailed producing a sketch in a genre we are not too fond of, familiar with nor inclined to produce/perform. The genre I selected for this sketch was a deep house.

2)Take The Moment -

The other final project assignment required a sketch that incorporated culture and experimentation. From this sketch, I drew from sampling culture as a basis for creating the sketch's foundation and shaping a unique narrative which I did so by repurposing my own vocals from past unreleased projects, ambient soundscapes, and punchy drum and skit samples from some of my favorite artists (sampled in this sketch are Feel by Jacob Colier and Lianne La Havas, and Rafael's prayer by Sault).

For experimentation, my process of composition was guided by the approach of "a piacere" which is an Italian musical phrase meaning “to your pleasure/at will.” - a philosophy on musical expression where some aspects of a song – such as tempo or dynamics do not need the performer to follow the rhythm strictly. With this approach, in class, we were challenged to create a sketch without a metronome. To work around this limitation I began the track with a sample of a simple yet strong drum loop which I used to hold count and establish a starting pulse for the sketch.

Something for the downtempo heads. Entheogenic.

✨🌸🌺”Cielo”🌺🌸✨

This song distills the past 4 months of my life into an enigmatic soundscape. Happens Happens: it's quirky, it's rhythmic, it's... something. It's what I'd want to be remembered by if the world was crumbling and I had but 1 more attempt to answer, "Who is Teauxbba?"

📻 Vocals & Production: Teauxbba
📻 Written By: Teauxbba

Lyrics:

Turn anything into a song
Turn anything into a song

Ooh, time
Ooh, have to see

Whatev happens, it happens happens
I have to sing, I just have to sing

They come to me
They come to me
I’m avoiding obstacles
But they come to me

Scary to not know, scary to not know
Scary to not know, scary to not know

They come to me

Still walking
Whatev happens happens
Happens happens
Happens happens

I don’t need no, I don’t need no
I don’t need no, I don’t need no

Distracted easily
Doo doo, happens happens
Distracted easily
Doo doo, happens happens

Hoon hut, hoon hut
Hoon dey, dey hoon dey, dey hoon dey

Sometimes I just, I just have to see
A treacherous path that I’m still walking Remain hopeful, no catastrophes
I have to sing, I just have to sing

Figure out, blaring loud
Figure out, blaring loud
Figure out, blaring loud
Figure out

They come to come
Come to me

Scary to not know, scary to not know
Scary to not know, scary to not know

Still walking
Whatev happens happens
Happens happens
Happens happens

I don’t, I don’t
I don’t need no
Doo heen dun done

📻 Happens Happens, 2025, Teauxbba.

I feel in love with Andrew Bayer's Immortal Lover when I first heard it. Then Qrion came along and turned it into magic and now I hope I've left something for you to like.
