Tracy’s most popular and performed composition to date, “Dain Brammage” sounds just like the name implies. This is steelpan at it’s heaviest and most fun! This one is unapologetically loud, heavy, in your face and is always a crowd favorite!
“Dain” starts out with an intense and unison intro that breaks into a low-pan groovy and chromatic riff. Then the high pans join in with the harmony to take things up a notch, followed by the big and open chorus to take you back around to the main jam. After the chorus there is a sweet, light and airy breakdown that gives the tune a nice mellow mood swing that contrasts in such a way that when you come out of it back into the main jam, it’s like a pan explosion! Finally, you’re one more time around to end the way you started, in heavy full band unison! An awesome heavy groove with a big sound and a heavy metal flair.
This little lullaby was written for my 4-year-old niece at the time she was about to have heart surgery. It’s just a simple and pretty melody that came to me with her in mind. I had her come in the studio and sing the La La La’s when she was all better (take after take…my little diva). I really love the tune as it’s such a departure from most of the highly energetic music that I had written and arranged up to that point.
Hula Hoop is a super fun samba reggae is an interlocking rhythm section tune that will eventually grab the audience and make them want to get up and dance.
