Hi guys, here is my new Synth V original - The Wingless Aeroplane. It's the second part of the "Bullet Train" series after "Fast Like A Bullet Train".
Oh, thank you very much! Making of this song was pretty interesting:I like your instrumental! It's got a neat character to it.
Ah, cool, that's interesting! That's neat that each station had their own chime. It's a nice tie-in to add that to your song, too!Oh, thank you very much! Making of this song was pretty interesting:
I took the instrumental riff from the chorus of Fast Like A Bullet Train and put it into the intro. The song "Fast Like A Bullet Train" featured the 100 series Shinkansen bullet train in its video and artwork. This one features a 200 series Shinkansen, which is basically the same train, but in different livery (white-green instead of white-blue). This type was used on Tohoku and Joetsu lines. Between 1982 and 1991, the train had its specific chime, "Furusato Chime", which played before the train arrived at a station. Each station had its own melody. All of them were based on Japanese popular and folk songs, but they were arranged all in the same style. I really like the style of the chimes so it inspired me to make the instrumental like this. You can compare to the Furusato Chime from the Joetsu line. The second part of the song (from 1:03 till the end) was inspired by the newer version of the chimes with a different lead instrument.
I'm glad you like my song!
Thanks! I'm from the Czech Republic, where only 3 train chimes can be usually heard:Ah, cool, that's interesting! That's neat that each station had their own chime. It's a nice tie-in to add that to your song, too!
