After the sunset. Video-version

This tune is presented in the maxi-single «Song of the setting sun», released in 2005, and it sounds only there - it is not present in any album (this was not supposed to be - this is an exclusive track specially written for the single). Nevertheless, the melody turned out to be memorable, touching something in the depths of the soul. And it needed a video-version for a long time.

This footage was created using the BlueWillow neural network. It is hardly worth considering it as an unambiguous correspondence to music - it turned out that modern artificial intelligence very easily reacts to seascapes in the context of sunsets and sunrises, but it is not so easy to convince it to do something close to the night element. As a result, it was decided to leave the dawn-sunset design, which is quite in tune with the entire maxi-single «Song of the setting sun».

By the way, if one of you, my listeners, missed this release, it's not too late to get to know it and even make friends:

This music continues to fill me with faith in the best for almost two decades. And the longer I listen to it, the more I realize that I am not quite its author, but maybe a guide.

The sound of the composition «After the sunset» has undergone some changes, and I'm sure - for the better. However, the original sound is also preserved. You can compare which is better if you listen to the music in this video and then play the same track (#2) on the maxi-single page «Song of the setting sun» on the NEANE Records website.

Happy viewing and listening!
