You Made Me Smile Again

Mellow acoustic pop song with a strong retro soul influence.  Mournful male vocals generate the tragic story of the music, joined by more positive harmonies for the choruses. Prominent bongos and an underlying beat accompanied by arpeggiated guitar and smooth keyboard give a cool lounge vibe, ensuring that the flow stays firmly in the laid-back category and maintains the doleful, hopeful spirit of the lyrics.

A little bit of retro flavoured RnB soul, not to be taken too seriously. Upbeat and smooth in feel, with its sexy sax and kinky keys hitting those funky tones, it's ably supported by a tight rhythm section and some laid back guitar funk. Whispy male vocals tell the story (of earning enough money) leading to the catchy choruses with harmonised help from the backing singers. Musically authentic, vocally different.

Modern Future R&B track with super smooth vibes. Chopped vocal hits attract most of the attention as they pan around the aural spectrum, but it's the background that creates the groove. Deep bass and light drums make up the rhythm, while gentle pads and soft mallet hits give it an almost tropical feel. Upbeat but relaxed, it's a fresh and cool take on an urban genre.

Smooth, retro feel soul with female vocals. Evoking old school R&B with silky bass and soft percussion under a rich soundscape of lush strings and electric piano tones, this mid-paced song evokes an authentic expression of yearning and love through the sultry female voice and male backing. Lyrically heartfelt and regretful with hints of optimism, musically stable and consistent, it's a dreamy and expressive song about heartbreak.

Smooth groove R&B pop with a soulful edge. Old school flavours feature heavily, with retro keyboard tones and Motown backing harmonies supporting muted electric guitar and a simple pop beat. Calm and unfussy with a feel good message about love, it's gently upbeat and innocent.

Jazzy shuffle soul with a funk edge. Just drums, upright bass and organ are all that's needed to spice up the creamy vocals in this smooth and perfectly laid back ode to all the cool cats out there dedicated to their love interests. Very hip.
