Vonias Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago I've begun a challenge for myself, creating Halloween music for the month of October. So far, I have "The Raven," "Headless Horseman (Salvos)," "Cthulu," and "Bessy." Bessy, is the Lochness Monster based in Ireland, or England, I believe. Scores are also attached. The process is pretty simple. I store my numbers in the website, then work the music by more instinct and storytelling; it's so difficult to describe the joy of atonal music, so I hope the website inspires you: Projects - David Harper The website is a multitool, that manipulates your set in a linear fashion creating arrays very close to the original that you input. Further inspiration may be gathered by the in depth report generator. Physics terms are more complex, while the basics are present. Furthermore, I created one method for composing atonal fugues, and the website will generate a fugue based on that method; atonal fugues, are tough, so have at it! Other than that, the performances are based on sounds generated by, Garritan. Also, the works were instrumentalized by AI over at Suno.com! If you haven't checked it out, now is the time after Suno Studio was released giving midi access to your creations. Copyright with AI is not so complicated: Copyright in, copyright out; also Suno has your back too with protection. Anyway, anyway, the purpose of Copyright is to encourage creativity; so don't hold back on the numbers input on the website, I provided. The fractal viewer allows you to see the physical effect each note plays upon the other to make you more accurate in your composition. About the only thing the website doesn't do, is serve coffee; but you have amazing taste, already, why would you need a website?! Carrying on, each composition is Halloween themed of monster favorites in America. I'll write music about some of the folklore in the area too! Cthulu for example, is very popular in a small town I lived. The next one will be the Chuchacabra, and Big Foot later. Some horrors include zombies in the small city I live in, and everyone is excited to tell their horror story too. One that comes close is to the area is the Bell Witch, told be the amazing William Turner: Historian William Turner weaves tale of Bell Witch Thanksgiving is all about the Crucible, Canterbury Tales, so I'll see how long I can keep this thing going into November. The Raven, a macabre march blending Gothic, Romantic, with contemporary Wind Ensemble. The polarity of aTonal music to tonal, is like a crunchy smore with gooey insides. I had no idea the complex ration facing when composing in this style, so I held on until everything around me changed. The two styles are oil and water, not to mention that they are very kinetic in response to sound creating a mission impossible for the composer sometimes. My friend wanted Hisashi's music in the song, so if it reminds you of the films, Kiki's Delivery Service, you are not far off from accuracy. Cascading thirds triumph in the trumpets, also creating the 'D' section of the form, ABACADABA. Most people get it, but just say the magic word, and all your dreams come true. The nuance leaves the composer big headed, and too clever for his own good. Salvos, is a complex machine of musical systems to create the effect of omni-movement of a horseman that managed to ride around with a jackolantern on his head. Can you imagine the coordination; he must be a musician, too! The song is very festive, set at the gross tempo of 144, to give that ghoulish quality to it. It's the same tempo as Michael Jackson's, "Thriller." Though, the song is tonal, the source originates in aTonal as loosely interpretted by the AI. I went with it along with the instrumentation, that summates a fast gallop in a dark soundscape. I think AI interprets most serial music as diminished, oddly enough. It's easier to measure the major seconds as consonent, and that resembles more serialism music to me. Lochness, is a lonely pianoscape of sound. I thought it reflected how lonely Bessy is as a monster of the lake. Serialism maintained better in this version, it sounds like a hybrid. It's hard to escape that aTonal melody, so I allowed AI to interpret the melody as a "reharmonization." The spindle catches on well the isolated sounds, melody, and creates a haunting beauty. This melody was made by the fugue generator in my website. It demonstrates all styles of fugue essentially - Stretto, augmentation, diminution, and appoggiatura. Cthulu, is aTonal. I was strict with the instrumentalization process. I imagine Cthulu to make ample use of ostinato creating a normalcy, only until you find the 'C' a completely different color by the end of the song. huehuehue. Only an octopus would think of that. The chords are thick and lend from Coltrane's "Sheets of Sound." I had to double the bass part to make the melody clear for AI, and I loved the organ quality created.
