Ride The Dragon by Nick Marks published on 2023-03-03T17:47:11Z ‘Ride The Dragon’ is the first exposition of Marks’ artistry, harmonizing futuristic synthesizers with a 4 pieces horn section, rhythm section and lush orchestra. The result: a through- composed voyage traversing the borders of jazz fusion and electronica with a cinematic edge. The track opens with is a literal ‘warp-speed’ sound that transports the listener into a dark futuristic jazz sonic universe, with a driving rhythm section steering the journey. It builds into a heroic theme as the horns, orchestra and synthesizers fuse together and explode like the fire from an unleashed dragon. Nick says about the song: “This track is about unleashing the inner dragon in all of us; daring to take risks, all in pursuit of our dreams, the greater vision we have for a better world, without limitations. It’s also a homage to the process of how the track was written and performed: riding inspiration fearlessly without not necessarily knowing where the ultimate destination is, but trusting it will lead to where it needs to go”.
