New Release | Daybreak by Doxter S

Crimson Studios announces the new release of Daybreak by Doxter S.

Daybreak by Doxter S is a madrigal style polyphonic composition with 3 vocalists accompanied by piano, cello, violin, and music box.

This song started out as an instrumental Rondo of 8-bars. The complex melodies seemed to lend themselves as the basis for a holiday song.

I started with lyrics simply describing the familiar auditory sensation of an Ear Worm. Perhaps it’s just music playing in your head that you heard at the shopping mall. In my case the music was new and original, with yet to be defined lyrics. As I developed this theme I focused on Christmas time and holiday music.

The reference to the season being winter and the presence of music playing everywhere are subtle links to Christmas time. The lyrics “Bright music Good tidings come with the Sun rising” and “Sweet voices are singing angelic with feeling” are additional ties to the traditional holiday music. Otherwise this song is without any anchors to limit it to one genre.

The entire song is constructed with the familiar rondo build up of layers incorporating the instrumentals and vocals to reach a crescendo just before the outro.

From the dusk until the dawn              Like an old familiar song 
With a haunting melody                       That is playing endlessly  
Making perfect harmony

Dancers

Dancers by Doxter S is a dance fantasy with a latin beat. This song evokes the nightlife in Buenos Aires, Argentina and the tango dancing that originated there.

Form a Line

This upbeat song has more energy and less sweetness (than my last wedding song) and will get everyone crowding the dance floor dancing vigorously singing and shouting along with the band.

Amazing by Doxter S

Doxter S has taken inspiration from “Amazing Grace” to create a totally new and original song simply entitled “Amazing”. Sung by a choir, with instrumental accompaniment, Amazing by Doxter S picks up the tempo and lifts the spirit even higher than ever before possible.

This is an upbeat revival style song that echoes the traditional song Amazing Grace in one refrain, but has it’s own upbeat character that will bring the entire congregation to its feet.

Amazing by Doxter S uses pounding percussion, lively hand claps, a variety of spiritual verses, and unforgettable chorus sections. The church organ, electric bass, and electric piano join tied percussion section in support of the choir. The effect is, in a word, Amazing!

Mountain by Doxter S

We were seated at a local Family Restaurant in McLean, Virginia and noticed the middle of the benches were higher. We laughed because we have a similar hump in the middle of our well used bed at home. I described it as a Mountain between us and we both laughed.

I decided that was enough to write a song describing the way couples can become separated even when they are together. This is a very soulful, melancholy love song that I sing with acoustic guitar.

Everywhere by Doxter S is an upbeat, latin rhythm, inspirational song dedicated to a very happy new couple starting out their new life together with a dance and a promise to keep traveling and dancing together, leaving behind all the worries and complications of daily life.

Dorian by Doxter S is a musical interpretation of the Gothic novel by Oscar Wilde – “The Picture of Dorian Gray”. Dorian appears at various times and places chasing after a dream-like companion. The mood is mysterious, the music intoxicating, and at the end Dorian and the music fades away.

Dancers by Doxter S

Dancers by Doxter S is a dance fantasy with a latin beat. This song evokes the nightlife in Buenos Aires, Argentina and the tango dancing that originated there.

Traveling through the mountains in western Virginia we were listening to local college radio from UVA. As we crossed to the western slope the station changed to a latin program from West Virginia entirely in Spanish. That was the inspiration for this song. Initially I wrote something more humorous with a Mariachi style. I placed that aside and reconfigured the melody into a Tango style instead. The lyrics and title are changed as well.

The singer recalls her experience as a tourist and the lasting impression that stays with her. She carries in her memory the dancers that so impressed on her the beauty and grace of the Tango. She dreams of herself becoming a tango dancer in Buenos Aires.

Dancers by Doxter S includes the traditional instruments used for the tango. The familiar Bandoneon is an essential component, along with latin percussion using conga, wood blocks, and tambourine. A cello and acoustic bass complete the instrumental support for this tango dance.

Lyrics

Instrumental Intro 
 
It was not many years ago  
I flew away to Argentina  
In Buenos Aires for the Summer  
I found an open air Cantina  
I tasted wine and sampled Tapas  
The cobbled streets were filled with couples  
 
I watched the young tango dancers perform in the square  
They moved with beauty and grace they seemed lighter than air  
 
Instrumental Break 
 
One special dancer caught my fancy  
She was a raven haired romantic  
Her flashing eyes and pouting boca  
Made every movement look dramatic  
Her partner held her in possession  
They danced together with expression  
 
I felt the music they danced to was played just for me  
Their every movement was perfectly timed to the beat  
 
Long Instrumental Break 
 
I see that dancer when I'm dreaming 
And how I wish that I could be her  
When I was younger I was wiser  
I saw that beauty was inside her  
The music carries like a whisper  
I dream that I am dancing with her  
 
Next to a garden with flowers that glow in the light  
I would be dancing for hours the moon shining bright  
 
Instrumental Break 
 
Play the music that they dance to just for me 
 
Instrumental Break 
 
It seems so many years ago  
I flew away to Argentina  
In Buenos Aires for the Summer  
I found a open air Cantina  
I tasted wine and sampled Tapas  
The cobbled streets were filled with couples  
 
I was a young tango dancer alone in the square  
I moved with beauty and grace I was lighter than air 
 
Instrumental  
 
Buenos Aires Argentina in my dreams 
I still dream I’m dancing tango in the night
