Song Description

"Gibraltar Bridge" ********************************* Lyrics and Music by Chet Nichols Copyright 2000 by Chet Nichols (ASCAP)/Magic Garage Music (ASCAP) MagicGarageMusic@gmail.com * http://www.chetnichols.net ALL RIGHTS RESERVED This song is on the new CD, "Earthways"......a NEW AGE/World beat CD with a collection of hypnotic. meditative compositions which combine numerous world instruments. The concept is based on roads and travel. These songs are long 7-10 minutes for a reason. I want them to relax people and take them away from the world of the 3-4 minute song. There is plenty of that for them to enjoy in the marketplace.

Song Length 9:25 Genre New Age - Ethnic, New Age - Ethnic
Tempo Medium Slow (91 - 110) Mood Tranquil, Welcoming
Subject Friendship, Bridges Era 2000 and later

nice job putting all instruments together song flowed really well together keep up the good work

this a nice track you can use it for a love story

Very nice. I like this. Love the instrumentation, and arrangement. Quality recording and production. Thank you for sharing your music. Enjoyed this song very much. Awesome work. :o)))

I love the choices of percussion on this piece and the beautiful way they've been chosen to work in this arrangement. Overall, this piece just keeps popping from beginning to end

When the song first started, I got really excited because the style sounded similar to Azam Ali, one of my favorite Middle Eastern artists, especially because of the traditional Middle Eastern sounds combined with contemporary elements such as synthesizers! One of my favorite parts was the Oud at the beginning, and there was one synthesizer that was really beautiful around this part, too. It was also unique because it sounds as if there was a kalimba incorporated into the song. The song got more cheerful as it went on, and I think that the kalimba added to this. I usually do not hear Middle Eastern music this cheerful, and so I think that this was really creative! I thought that there was some great world fusion in this song!

I could see this being used in a film/tv/ commercial setting. Really nice groove!

Beautiful sounds and nice loops. The harp works well with other instruments selected. Great breakdown in the 2 minute section, the song breathes. It builds in intensity and has intrigue. Beautiful marimba in the 4 minute section, the percussion is nice here too. Nice use of fade ins and outs especially with the piano in the 4 minute section.
