about

Follow The Wind and the future album is dedicated to all the past sailors, and to anyone who likes travelling, living abroad, and exploring the world. Since I am from Portugal, I would like to express my respect to the souls of my ancestors for being so brave and visionary by crossing the continents on a wooden ship.

This song features the departure from Porto City. To simplify, some techniques in this piece were used to describe the ship's travel. The most noticeable is panning (moving the sound left to right in the speaker). For the rest of the song, I leave up to you to discover

The song features the following instruments: The Chinese Erhu, Guzheng, Chinese drums (Gongs, Bangu, Xiaogu, Hua Pen Gu, Bells), Saxophone, Bassoon, Piano, Acoustic Guitar, Synthesiser Pads, other sound effects, sea waves, water, seagulls, and the wooden boat cracking sounds. This song can be classified as world, experimental, fusion, contemporary music.

‘Follow The Wind’ has lyrics and the only verse is written and sung in Portuguese by myself and the chorus is written in Chinese, using the character 勇气 (Yǒngqì meaning Courage) sung by me and Tse Ling Man.

lyrics

Vou Navegar, I am sailing
Pelo mundo inteiro sem ter receio Thought the world without being afraid
Vou Sonhar, I am dreaming
Pelo mundo inteiro sem ter receio Thought the world without being afraid
Pelo mundo inteiro sem ter receio Thought the world without being afraid

Chorus:
勇气 (Yǒngqì, Courage, Coragem)
