The story behind
The Wild Frontier, according to DoReSol
When you dive into The Wild Frontier, the first thing that stands out is its structure. It's not a song that follows a straight path; rather, it invites you to explore its different facets. Its duration, just over four minutes, is the right amount of time for its atmosphere to envelop you without feeling rushed. It's a piece where production and sound engineering play a fundamental role, creating a soundscape that transports you.
The recording of this piece was handled by Bruce Hornsby and Elliot Scheiner, who were in charge of production. Scheiner, moreover, was the recording engineer, which suggests meticulous attention to every detail of the sound. The way the song was constructed, with that attention to engineering, is what gives it its distinctive character and allows each musical element to have its space to shine.
