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.

Lyrics by Teauxbba (Tobba Tlendea):

I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party

Going through old Christmas photos
And I’m getting Christmas fomo
And I’m watching Christmas movies
And I’m feeling that I could be

Making me Christmas king
Baking fragrant Christmas treats
Taking what was made for me
Faking ’til I make it be

I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho-hostess with the mo-mostess

I remember growing up
Watching movies like the Grinch
Wishing that my home could be
The place on er’one’s Christmas list

Then this year it dawned on me
That dreams could be reality
Since there’s no more time to waste
The party’s on the 20th, don’t be late

I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho-hostess with the mo-mostess

I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna host a Christmas party
I wanna ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho-hostess with the mo-mostess

Ho-Ho-Host a Christmas Party

I BAG I SEAL
