I created this audio track because I wanted to try and mimic the sounds of a bar or speakeasy in the 1920s. Most other tracks I listened to on YouTube were just people playing music from the 1920s with a lot of reverb in the back, trying to copy the bar scene from The Shining. But the music they play is from actual old recordings from scratchy records! How is that supposed to sound like a bar in the 20s, with live music?
I used music played by current bands that sound like it would if you were actually IN a bar in 1921! I took music from the Boardwalk Empire soundtrack, among other sources. I added the sounds of clinking glasses, people talking, applause, and laughing.
So, play my track; then sit back, close your eyes and try to imagine yourself in a bar in 1921, with a live band in the main ballroom, people walking past, tobacco smoke drifting around you...
