I can’t believe it’s that time again already! Another single is dropped by a producer that has and has had the culture on the edge of their seats for years now, and now with his dive into the instrumental beat tapes, he’s once again captivated an ever-eager audience with more of his grand sounds! Let’s talk about it!
This is the brand-new instrumental track by legendary producer Apollo Brown, whose reputation precedes him. After dropping countless classics in the span of half a decade, he’s turning to beat tapes to continue his ever-growing legacy, and this track might be his best yet!
So, three minutes and 03 seconds of pure creative genius. We have the track starting off like a classical orchestra in motion with the slow-building swing-inspired strings that fade in and out of centre attention, giving you the feel that something big is coming (which it is), including those swaying high-pitch chords in the background, and this thing is the interlude for the ages!
When that beat kicks in with that slight drum roll and we hear that heavy thudding bass and smooth jazz drum pattern, I fucking lost it when I first heard that transition. The ease of it all, the transformation from subtle to cinematic in one motion, was absolutely incredible to say the least.
This beat takes over the mind, soul, and body. On top of all the new jazz horns and violin, we get these beautifully angelic voice harmonies that are the cherry on an already gourmet cake, and it just tips the beat from phenomenal to perfect.
I feel bad even calling this a ‘beat’; it almost feels derogatory to place it in the same breath as anything else on the market. What Apollo does is creative living, breathing scores that are fit for the highest calibre movie directors and should be treated as such!
I was left speechless with this track; it’s gorgeous in every way possible. Once again, Apollo showcases his pure dominion of quality and excellence, remaining the standard to beat!
