The Dessert ( Ghost Dance )
This song is written by Scott A Gradert (@scottybaby) in 1992. The song explores the Ghost Dance theme of the Indigenous Peoples of the South Western American Deserts, who lived for countless generations in peace in pursuit of their dreams. It tells the story of those who remember their ancestors in light of the present times where so much has been lost to history. - Vocal: Amar Antoine Back Vocals :Josie, Ufuk Çelik, Azra Azizov Guitar: Azra Azizov Violins: Ufuk Çelik, Jasmina Uğur Keyboard: Büşra Azizov Electronics and Mixage: Irida Antoine, Ioannis Antoine Bass: Josie Drums and Drums Kit: Özgür Alp - Production : THE SCOTT BROTHERS BAND, THE ANTOINE & UFCEBABA Families Song by: Scott A Gradert - This song is a unique song created with a fusion of classical music with Native American music, country, hip hop, rock and the influence of soul music.It is actually a combination of the past and the future, merging old school and new school. - What is Ghost Dance? - The Ghost Dance is a spiritual movement that emerged in the late 19th century among Native American tribes, particularly among the Plains Indians. It was founded by the Paiute prophet Wovoka, who claimed to have received a vision during a solar eclipse in 1889. - The Ghost Dance movement led to the Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890. The U.S. government viewed this movement as a threat, resulting in the deaths of many Native Americans. - The Ghost Dance was not just a ritual; it became a symbol of the efforts of Indigenous peoples to preserve and revitalize their cultural identity. Today, this movement is remembered as an important part of the resistance and identity of Native peoples in American history. --- The Desert (Ghost Dance) - I wanna live in the desert. That’s where my mind can be free. I wanna be in the desert. To see as far as I can see. - My naked soul blows in the wind, And flies up high into the sky. Unhindered vision all around me, Changing colors as I fly. - If your heart has fallen to the ground, As you walk your Native Land, You can call it back to your god, As you walk the desert sands. - I wanna live in the desert. That’s where my mind can be free. I wanna be in the desert. To see as far as I can see. - I dreamed the Ghost Dance long ago, And saw that Life begins again. More are gone now than are here now, Like the trails where we’ve been. - There’s an end to every story, And every story is a Life. The Desert is The Book of Stories, Full of Sorrow, Joy, and Strife. - Scott A. Gradert 1992more

I though this ended up being a cool track, I've learned that less is mores , tried to simplify, find a hook and avoid never ending solos that don't add anything, let me know your thoughts - Mastered by mixea.commore
