I have programmed a new AI and am currently working on modernizing and restructuring genres, topics, moods and tags. BPM will be replaced by “perceived speed”. Keys will be removed. The keyword search will also soon be extended to tags. There will also be an A.I. “Review” and a quality rating for each song. All music will soon be re-categorized. When I'm done with that, there will be new music again :)

Arti’s Hit or Miss: Review

"African Kora" immediately establishes a peaceful, evocative atmosphere. The core kora melody is beautifully played, showcasing the instrument's unique timbre and creating a sense of genuine authenticity. It feels like a journey, a musical narrative unfolding gently. The composition is well-structured, with subtle variations and a natural progression that keeps the listener engaged without ever becoming overwhelming. The arrangement, built primarily around the kora, is enhanced by unobtrusive percussion that adds depth without distracting from the central melody. This restrained approach is commendable.

From a production standpoint, the track shines. The kora is recorded with clarity, allowing its intricate details to be fully appreciated. The mix is balanced, with the percussion sitting comfortably in the background, creating a spacious, natural soundscape. It’s very close to “broadcast quality” in its current state. Thinking about media use, it’s easy to imagine this piece accompanying a documentary about African culture, wildlife, or travel. It could also be used in a meditation app or as background music for a scene depicting tranquility or reflection. The piece evokes a warm, positive feeling, making it versatile for a variety of projects.

One suggestion for improvement would be to experiment with some very subtle ambient textures in the background. These would provide a little more contrast to the sharp, clean percussive and plucky elements, providing a “bed” for the kora to lay on. This may allow the listener to engage with the track for longer periods. Not a big change at all, but it would be worth experimenting with. Compared to industry-standard library music, "African Kora" holds its own remarkably well. It delivers on its promise of authenticity and quality, avoiding clichés often associated with world music. The craftsmanship in both the playing and the production elevates it. It’s a track that feels both professional and heartfelt.

Overall, this is a strong, well-produced piece with clear media applications. The focus on authenticity and the high-quality recording make it a valuable asset for projects seeking a genuine African sound. It hits the mark for a production music track.
