New Music from me and my friend
Singer songwriter and artist Chloe Hummingbird wrote this song years ago in a reflective time. Years later, she brought the song to me for a mock studio session to shoot a promo video for my music production services (another story all together).
After the shoot, I had a vocal, some chords, some bits of harp a basic beat and not much else. But the song stayed with me and over the next year or so, I tinkered on the production and created the synth pop banger vibe that I felt would suit the song.
After a while on the shelf, I played it at a party and the reaction convinced us that we should release it. Probably a one off musical moment but who cares? Not all songs need to have a band or long-term project associated with them. A reminder that songs can be made out of fun and friendship.
It’s called Running and it’s out soon.

PRODUCTION THAT CONNECTS WITH THE EMOTION OF A SONG
This song is a real journey. A great piece of songwriting that was a collaborative journey to create. I was sent an old demo recording. From this I built a new, more cohesive and solid instrumental and then the vocals were recorded by @_nee_nee_no_no_ in The Netherlands. Then after I received these, I adjusted things and re-recorded some layers so it all felt like a band playing together. Most parts were recorded in one take. Can’t wait for it to be out there! It’s called Red by Nee Nee No No.
