Every now and again, you come across a client that asks for something that just hits you right in the nostalgia. One of those areas, for me, is the feeling of the old western towns I watched in the old Trinity movies, re-imagined in Red Dead Redemption - A video game series well known for the fantastic work they did on their 2nd game!

So, of course, when I was asked to make a demo for a piece of western town inspired background music, I could not say no!

The sound of a western town, to me, is heavily reliant on the banjo or a harmonica. I think the slow plucked banjo instantly brings me to an empty street with a dust-devil running across it.

With a street and a mood defined, I went to the clichés and brought out the humble trombone with some plucked orchestral strings. Adding some woodwinds in there to double the melody is a really easy way to glue everything together. It also justifies adding some harmonies and more nerdy composer things in there ;)

At this point it feels quite "westerny" already! But, we need a progression - and nothing says progressing through the west more than a trumpet on the top line!
