"Hey what's up err'y body!"

Hope you're all doing great these days!
Not a whole lot of sun out here in Switzerland...
actually there is some this very part of February, but I've still been spending the whole week
in my dark bedroom giving physical birth to some ideas i had collected while i was
doing my usual survival job in this very friendly shop...

I've been thinking a lot recently about this "thing" called "Man Of Steel" for July 2013, so I thought: "Hey why not just dive into it & pretend I'm the great Lord Hans Zimmer and i'm gonna change the universe forever with my little (be warned!) "suck-ass 320 kpbs mp3 mix" release..."

I consider this as one of my first real attempts at creating actual "melodic" material, so please...
Be merciless me & crush me down with everything you have on this one!

Your friend,
i guess...

Man Of Steel (Suite) [Prevision Score] Inspired By Hans Zimmer

Hello my friends! My name is Alexandre Safi, I'm 23, and I've been leading a self-taught composing solo life for about a little more than one year! I found that this idea for a contest was absolutely clever and generous... Anyway ironically, I didn't think i would participate because i feel like one of those actors who, in case he would win, would have to go up on stage and make his speech, which he knows he's just way to unequipped to make a good one for. I'm just saying that putting my big foot into Los Angeles is really not the right time for me this year...

"Oh, and i just saw i'm overstepping the rules of course by 14 outrageous seconds more in my track so..."

Whereas in the 1st Entry, i used Mr.Zimmer's great theme using the solo voice and tried to elevate it, this time i went the other way around using the voice for my own "thing"...

-- I'm completely off that contest already, but if anyone's into the actual orchestral sound for what makes orchestra special, i hope that you... ok i "don't hope", i COMMAND YOU to be interested... -- 

My posting here is really a way to get constructive feedback so that I can grow better and better every day...
Go ahead, Let it all out!!!!

My sincerest good luck to all of you participants ("those who actually are luckily within the rules"), and from what I've heard, a precious bunch here are really extraordinary in their inventivity..."Taking notes!"
I really wish wou well!
May the muse be with you!
.AS.


Forever Lullaby [Bleeding Fingers Competition (2nd Entry)]

Hollywood Runner... [Theme For French Horn, Orchestra & Synth]

Hello Soundcloud! So today(11.08.14), here is my newest melodic exercise, my intent was basically to go and try to take simple ideas and take them to a large scale, just because well.. i seem to like it big... I also thought it'd be a nice time to try and use a sonic palette reminiscent either of the 80's, or today's electronics maybe and see what we can do with our timeless orchestra...
In the end i'm not so sure about the whole continuity of the piece, but it was a huge learning experience and a personal rewarding effort as always!      
Hope you enjoy "at least" one of these 3 themes or that you find something engaging maybe in there!
Best,
Alexandre

Hymn To The Stars [3 Themes For Malmsjö, Orchestra, Choir & Synth]

First Flight [Theme For Orchestra & Harp] (Inspired By Disney & John Williams]

Hey Mr & Mrs everybody...
First of all, thank you for stopping by! 
Let me introduce you to my next little tune! The process on this one was amazing because i could swear i wouldn't be doing anything again just for this year, but as i spent another boring day on my musical book, bits started coming up, and i immediately thought this would be something i had to share with the world... I don't know what you'll think of this one, it's not perfect, but as always, at the risk of repeating myself on every video i make, i sincerely wish you find anything enjoyable about this. Thanks to everyone who supported me so far and kept lurking around to check just in case!
Best high 5 to you all, until the next one...
Alexandre S.

Skylar [Theme For CS-80, PRS Guitar & Keyboard]

Hello Guys! Here's my latest musical journey! In-between piano lessons of mine for the past few months, i decided to quit the scales a bit for a day or two. I kept thinking of this tune I'd composed back in Christmas about this girl, Jane Hawk, whose playfulness, integrity, innocence and whose compassion and strength would become incredible assets in the big world, not necessarily knowing at first it needed her...
Anyways, you know the deal... Ya' better enjoy it! Have a great greaty day everyone!
:)

Jane Hawk [Theme for Oboe, 2 Pianos & DX Bells]

Hello SoundCloud, thank you so much in advance for checking out this piece, here's my latest composition that i just finished as an exercise in development & orchestration of a synth sort-of like an orchestra, and Performing this beloved technology into something I am "personally" intrigued to hear done in this particular way...

I know this is a relatively long piece, but I hope you guys & girls find enjoyable things you can connect with...

Thank you so much for listening!
And for those who have been following my slow & discrete steps since the beginning, i am infinitely grateful to you as well...

May the force be with you all...

The Winds Of Time (Theme For Orchestra) [Performed On Synthesizer & Piano]

By popular demand, I was kindly asked if I could somehow tackle yet again another "fan-take" on the Batman character... Unfortunately, i didn't really have the time to dive into it, but at least I thought giving it "one night's try" wouldn't hurt anyone and so here came out this modest piece after imagining the world of Bruce Wayne, the Gothic of it all, the Wayne Manor, the Bat-mobile, the loneliness & fear, you name it! I know this isn't really a proper theme, but this is strictly a homemade piece for you Batman lovers, so I hope you guys find something to your liking, no doubt the official Soundtrack will "overshadow" this, nevertheless, fun little attempt! ! :)

Just like always, 
Thank you so much for listening...
And enjoy the actual movie when it comes out

Electropolis (The Unfinished U-he Synth Contest)

Hey everyone... :)

First off, thank you special one for stopping by, I haven't posted anything in a while for study reasons, which necessarily took all my time, but now... for concluding 2019, I'm so glad to finally share with you this little new piece of me again! This is Atlantis of Hope, written for you and every other hearts and minds who, when struggling to find hope when needed, eventually find courage to go right back to that wise, inner voice telling you to keep rising, to keep showing up, to keep loving... As I know you will when you'll need to!
This is about your Vision inside, not your Reality outside...
The simplest thing, yet so hard, I know...

Sorry if in some parts, it gets overly loud, or repetitive! I'm still struggling especially with orchestration and I also hope the mix isn't too bad, I'm still getting around all this... :) Thank you so so much everyone for listening to my modest attempt at making music!
I hope you like it!
I hope you keep hoping!
Love you all...
&
See you again in the future... ;)
-A.S.-

Alexandre Safi
