Two pieces, SaxoSex & OMG.

So, here are two pieces I wrote based on similar ideas, but with different characters.

The SaxoSex piece is for synthesized/sampled Sax, and it's pretty much working experiment on reverb types/intensities as a crucial musical element. The piece is split into sections according to the type of technique used. The two main sections are the "Sea of sound" style reverb-spread out notes with no particular order or sequence. In the middle there's a other things, but these two parts are the main course, like a sort of "theme".

There's a pseudo-cadence at the end, which I wrote only to parody the typical ending, and it's mostly just that.

So, about OMG... uh... Yeah, well. This is one of the many pieces I wrote where I tried to work with only ONE single sample and do a bunch of stuff with it. The original .wav is me saying "Oh my god!" ...which I looped on purpose weird, so the popping noise in the loop is intended and used as a musical element too.

There isn't much of a structure to it, it's more like variations and different techniques in sequence. And, yes, despite what it may sound, the entire piece was composed using ONLY that .wav of mine, nothing else. Everything else is manipulation.

So, yeah. Enjoy!

PS: Oh, before anyone assumes anything improper, no, the OMG thing has nothing to do with religion, has no religious grounds what so ever, and in fact I could've said just about anything else, but "Oh my God!" sounded pretty funny at the time for some reason so I used that.
