Ride On The Broom Stick
stoman
EDIT:
I finally was able to remix the song. Please listen to “Fide On The Broom Stick (Version 2012)” in my track list to compare!
This is an old instrumental synthesizer tune. It has not been mixed or mastered, and I lost the original audio files.
Unfortunately I cannot recreate them because I don’t have the synths anymore that I used to create this song. But I might cover myself with new sounds some day. The song definitely needs a better mix.
A word on the song title: I had just finished reading the novel “Equal Rites” by Terry Pratchett and had that picture of Grandma Weatherwax in my head riding slowly on the decrepit broom that she had borrowed from a fellow witch. And I felt like writing an instrumental song that I imagined as a soundtrack for that scene.
Nice track! I like the added orchestration right before 3 min... lots of nice textures & layers in this one, I like it as is. The title got my attention, love the Granny Weatherwax connection.
Listening to this I see icicles melting as the sun comes up and the melted water flows into the gutter and then into the storm drain.....cars pass by and people run to the bus stop. Watch the passing storefronts as the town wakes up. Very evocative.
Very pretty and tinkly.
Wistful and airy! Lovely stuff!
