Hi, Kiran. This is just a rough demo of the song. Give me your feedback!

Anymore - Version 1

The Eyes of Kiran

This was named what it is because the whole piece is based off the beginning arpeggios which are the notes of Rue's whistle that she uses in the movie (and more technically, the book). The arpeggios in the beginning rise and fall and then a big burst of sound comes from big brass, vocals, and droning synths while the synth in the beginning still does its arpeggios. The piece modulates while the strings do arpeggios of their own and the French Horn plays a distant melody. The piece ends on the confident and fearful sounds of a choir and French Horn. 

This is sort of an electronic orchestrated piece because since the person requested that it be dark, haunting, electric, and adventurous, I personally think it needed an orchestra for the adventurous part because orchestras (and choirs) make everything sound epic :3 I personally think this kind of sounds like something that would be in the Portal soundtrack. What do you thinK?

This is under the CC license so feel free to distribute it and heck, make a remix if you want! But make sure to credit me and basically follow what the license says :3 Thanks!

Rue's Getting Angry

This song paints a picture of walking up the path to a creaky, old house on the corner of the road on a dark, rainy day.

The piano constantly does arpeggios in the background while the oboe eerily sounds in the foreground. Strings tremalo and rain pours throughout while in the middle a male and female choir enter. After some creepy chord progressions, the piece ends up back at the tonic, resolving with the booming and terrifying sound of an organ echoing with all of the other voices into silence.

I wish I had better choir sounds (maybe I could look into getting some soon) because I didn't really like the way the choir sounded all that much. I also spent a ton of time trying to get the audio levels to sound loud enough and not clip which I partially succeeded in. I think it turned out how the person who requested it wanted it to sound like: slow and haunting. :3

Approaching the House

This song turned out differently than I originally thought it would. I was going to use just 8-bit sounds using Magical8BitPlug (http://www.ymck.net/magical8bitplug/index.html) to make sort of a retro sound (like, 8-bit retro game sound) but I also decided to add some horns and extra synths to make it sound like something you'd find in a mid 90's platformer. 

The whole song consists of about a 15 second jazz doohickey, repeated another time with variation. There's a big finish at the end with a nice dominant seventh chord, glissandos, and big booming horns and even an organ! Press Start!

The commissioner wanted it to sound "happy" but "rough like electronic". Jazz naturally sounds more "rough" than straight chords so I thought making this sound like a retro, jazzy platformer would fit the bill just fine. I hope it satisfied your requests :3

By the way, this took forever to master because of the big finish at the end; it was clipping. So I had to take about two hours to try to equal the levels where the general song would sound loud while having the ending not clip. >_<

Anyways, enjoy!

Super Jazz Kid!

When I first started this piece, I knew it was going to spacey. This song gives you a sense of being some where in deep space, alone, facing a difficult journey ahead. A drone starts of the piece and a synth lead plays the distant, eery melody while drum hits boom in the foreground. The piece ends of with a fade out of the melody and most of the instruments, leaving a synth to sound and die off into the deepest reaches of space.

This song was supposed to be "Ambient, Dark/Haunting Electronic music" and I think I followed that quite nicely. There's not much going on musically and most of the feeling comes from the drones of the multiple synths, which also makes it sound dark and ambient.

Into the Cosmos

First of all, I honestly don't know why this made me think of caverns. Maybe it's some subliminal thing inside my mind...

But anyway, this song was made to emulate the sound of Jazz Jackrabbit (Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnnFFEStA3c), a game from the mid-nineties that had an acid jazz soundtrack. Although this track doesn't emit exactly the sound that I got from the song that I linked to above, it does sort of give a feel of it. I wanted to make sure it had a strong bass line and drum beat and that's apparent from right when the piece starts. Then a mix of trumpets and synths come in and provide the melody and the piece ends with a satisfying blues scale and a cymbal. I also wanted to make sure it was sort of catchy and I think I got that too :3

Funky Caverns

While making this piece, I kept thinking of some Star Wars-esque battle happening in space so I named it after that. Also, this is my first piece that I've ever written in 5/4 time so yay!

The person who commissioned me was pretty specific about what he wanted: "Sci-fi appropriate electronica, movie soundtrack sort of sound.  This would start off tense and someqhat quiet, building to dramatic high, but ending unresolved: this is the final build-up to a confrontation that is about to happen". I think I satisfied his requests quite nicely. It starts of with the strings doing a dramatic rhythm while a spacey chord brings that galatic feeling to the listener. After a dramatic build up of the strings, a pause and then strings, synths, and brass start the intergalatic battle. While the battle is going on, some chimes sound and the piece comes to a sudden rallentando with another spacey chord sounding, echoing off and dying into the vast cosmos. It's also unresolved!
