Old School

A 94bpm East Coast hip hop cut in E minor with a boom-bap beat, warm bass, Hammond and Rhodes chords and clean electric guitar under a male rap vocal on environmental themes. Positive and purposeful rather than aggressive, it suits footage where a message is being delivered plainly.

A 90bpm Am rap track built on a lean beat, deep bass and synth lines, with a male vocal in flirtatious party mode as the title suggests. Fun and playful with a sexy swagger, holding one groove across nearly three minutes.

The instrumental on the album: 90bpm in A minor, a lo-fi trip hop groove of dusty beat, round bass, Hammond and Rhodes with no rap vocal on top. Laid-back and cool, it leaves the whole middle open for narration or dialogue.

A 90bpm B minor rap cue with beat, bass, Hammond, Rhodes and synth behind a motivational male vocal about rising up. The minor key keeps it grounded rather than triumphant, making it work for stories of struggle turning into progress.

The shortest and brightest track here at 2:11, 94bpm in D major, pairing a trip hop beat and bass with synth, Rhodes, Hammond and glitch textures under a male rap vocal. Feel-good and summery despite the noir title, and its tight length suits a cut-down or promo.
