ModTomIT 7-5-2016 In keeping with the spirit of the comments I put in my last track, "Rocks and Trees", I will say some things about this track. It's callled bridge because I started working on it while riding in a car immediately after crossing the Mackinac Bridge which connects the Upper and Lower Peninsulas of Michigan. Its a rather impressive suspension bridge, the fifth longest in the world at the time of this writing. Interstate 75 is the road that crosses the bridge, and it is on this interstate that the song was written. I decided to experiment with some chromatic elements in the chord progression, as well as make a part of the track have major chords over some degrees of the blues scale, with each chord having an arpeggiated 9th chord melody over it. This sounds strange, but I think I like the results and would like to share this musical idea with the world. So basically, the "root scale" in this part is blues, but major 9th chords are implied as being put there and then an arpeggiated melody is played over each (mostly imaginary) chord like in jazz. However, it sounds neither jazzy nor bluesy. Furthermore, the entire thing is harmonized with a major 3rd after the part is introduced. Chaos, but an ordered chaos that pleases the ears hopefully. The only sample used in this track is a saw sample I drew myself. Lately, my tracks have been chiptunes with relatively few samples which have been drawn by myself using OpenMPT's sample editor, and this one is no exception. I rather enjoy this way of making music, but to keep some variety in timbre, unlike in the dozens of tracks which all use the same square sample I've made in the past, each track has used new samples. If you wish to contact me I can be reached by email at modtomit_gmail.com
