Riding High

Melodically “Riding High” has quite a modest and straightforward structure to it, the introduction of the drums however certainly enliven the mood of this chillhop gem.

They had this kind of sloppiness that’s reminiscent of Dilla and Quest Love, and by ‘sloppy’ I mean an unorthodox kind of swing which inevitably creates a riveting bounce. As the track continues, it’s embellished by the sound of pacifying trumpets to cement the jazz vibe which could be faintly detected from the chord arrangements.
