Garden Cross from Chillack I A Natural Groove is the album opener of Chillack I A Natural Groove, my debut downtempo/smooth jazz album. I wrote this song in my home studio during my high school years, and I started this particular version in my college years. As an instrumental composition, it serves as the perfect introduction, setting the mood for the entire album. The mood is initially established through the smooth, flowing melodies of the piano and synth leads, creating an atmosphere of calm and introspection. Jerad Williams, a family friend of mine, contributes emotive electric guitar solos, adding an expressive depth that enhances the piece’s overall emotional pull.

Towards the end of the track, I round out the composition with a synth lead solo tying the song together. The title, Garden Cross, evokes a sense of natural simplicity and beauty, much like the feeling of sitting in a lush, tranquil garden, surrounded by the soft sounds of nature. For me, this piece encapsulates the sense of serenity and peaceful reflection that I wanted to convey throughout the album. The gentle interplay between piano, synths, and guitar creates an immersive experience, pulling the listener into a world of calm and beauty, much like the setting of a serene garden. It’s a piece that speaks to the heart and sets the tone for the album’s overall aesthetic.
