STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 58 (Original Composition) / Mogati ~ Calor ("warmth")

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemit!

@gokulramdas and I are so excited to share our original "Calor" with all of you for the Open Mic Week 58 :) This song is very special to us, because it is what brought us together as a duo a few years ago. Since then, we decided to write together as Mogati, combining sounds from both our cultures, Chile and India.
We recorded this a few days ago in our house and have been working on the edit of the video, in the process we realized that I said week 57 instead of 58 :( We weren't sure if we should post it because of that but we already did all the work so here it goes anyways!! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did playing!!

LYRICS:

Calor

Fui a encontrar con quién sentarme a mirar,
el mar está tranquilo, está pa volar
Pa volar, pa volar

Muralla el tiempo y sus manos largas,
yo voy con el viento y su tibia calma
Muralla el tiempo y sus manos largas,
yo voy con el viento y su tibia calma

Fueron las palabras que aún tengo en el pa-
Ladrar gritos, montañas de ansiedad.
Si pudiera encontrar el mar...
Pa volar, pa volar

Muralla el tiempo y sus manos largas,
yo voy con el viento y su tibia calma
Muralla el tiempo y sus manos largas,
yo voy con el viento y su tibia calma

Suave el calor en la espalda cuando no te guardas ná.
No hay nada mas que hacer que aceptar,
todos los días que vendrán...

English Translation:

Warmth

I went to find with whom to sit and look around
The sea is calm, it's perfect to fly
To fly, to fly

Time is a wall with long hands
I’m going with the breeze and its warm calm
Time is a wall with long hands
I’m going with the breeze and its warm calm

It was the words that I still have on my palate
Barking, shouting, mountains of anxiety
If I could find the sea…
To fly, to fly

Time is a wall with long hands
I’m going with the breeze and its warm calm
Time is a wall with long hands
I’m going with the breeze and its warm calm

Warmth in my back when I don’t keep anything inside
There is nothing else to do but to accept the days to come...

Great professional entry!! But you said "Openmic 57" while you posted under 58:) Ah...you told me why:) So doesn't matter, still great!

Saludos, que hermoso tema, me gustaría contar con su aprobación para compartirlo en mi podcast. Un abrazo, me ha encantado.

Hola! Gracias! Cuentas con nuestra aprobación :) saludos!

really struck by your effortless sense of phrasing over the shifting meter .Any tips for how to learn these kinds of rhythmic patterns?! So beautiful thank you.

hey! thank you :) and well...is a tough question haha. I guess playing and experimenting with friends helps me. Of course, a lot of repetition is important to get used to the way these patterns feel.

its really awesome and inspiring !! thank you ... i will get back to practising now :)

Impresionantes sentimientos recorren el cuerpo al escucharlos, saludos :)

Oh wow, this was awesome! Wicked syncopation between the guitar and drum and beautiful vocals to top it off.

Top notch entry. Gave me great vibes! Songwriting was on point, even though I didn't understand the lyrics...the sentiment came through.

hey! thank you so much! we really like working on the details :)...I tried my best to write a translation if you're curious about the meaning!

Wow. You both just totally blew me away. Just an absolutely magical connection between you two, the rhythms are so intricate and playful, and warm guitar playing, and gorgeous singing. It is a crying shame you said the wrong week number because I think this is a winning entry otherwise. I am instantly a huge fan!!! So happy to follow you and can't wait to hear more amazing music! Love - Carl

Hey! Thanks for the sweet comment and yeah...disqualified probably :( but its okay.. we were experimenting with production, it was a great learning experience :) I'll say it right next time :P

OMG why disqualified!?!?!

Fuck ... did you try and bring it to their notice? You should if you didn’t I’m sure they can make a consideration if approached.

Hermoso tema. Un bello canto de esperanza. ¡Bravo!

Just what I needed to hear.
I'm always on the look out for new music.
This just expanded my musical horizon.
Thank you. Will follow you for more amazing stuff like this. :)
