January 18, 20206 yr The Landscape of Dreams I continue to compose in genre more of a musical landscape. A lot of instruments, but sparse parts, builds/down in complexity. Using UVI libraries, Kontakt libraries, Yamaha Genos, Logic Pro. Genos and Kontakt provide real sounding instruments, Falcon UVI libraries, the more synthetic. I enjoy synthetic sounds the have an organic feel to them. Tried to get a floaty feel with backwards instruments, also sparse drumming, placing Kik on different beats. Your brain wants to assume the kick is beat 1.. aha ha - got ya. Some parts have 'layered' softer parts under them, trying to create a 'smear' almost..
January 18, 20206 yr What an adventure of sounds! I like it already. It's amazing how so many sounds and instruments fit together. I wonder how different are "musical minds" in general. I think you conceive your music as a sort of progressive piece. It has no big climax or tutti as a standard piece, but it works very well.
January 18, 20206 yr Author Thank you Luis - I always value your opinion and ideas.. Making a climax by revisiting one of the earlier motifs, will be my next experiment. Each piece I do is an experiment, to work on an idea or area. I am currently trying key modulations in 2 - 5 chord changes to get there. I was taught that when I was about 14, but most rock'n'roll songs/pop songs our band did only ever modulated in one step, and I 'forgot'.
January 18, 20206 yr I'm sure a big climax with your big palette of sounds would be great. There are many many ways to modulate...
January 18, 20206 yr This is awesome. Such a big score. Had to zoom in on my phone just to see everything. That's awesome you can maintain coherency working with so many parts. Keep up the great work!
