"Tierra de Oficios" (2007)

This song is a milestone for me. It took me four days and involved over 260 tracks. HUGE thanks to my good friend Rebecca Lord for singing all of the vocals (except my humming at the start).

Turn My Crimson Into White

So, it's been quite some time since the last piece I've done (The Farmstead), however on my vacation in NY, doing my nightly searches of orchestrated covers of popular songs I stumbled upon a few pieces that were ok......an orchestrated cover of Owl City's "Fireflies" and some others.....the only orchestrated cover I actually was super impressed with was The City of Prague Philharmonic's performance of Coldplay's "Yellow". So I decided to take it upon myself to do a cover of one of my favourite Coldplay songs - Fix You. So after returning back from my vacation, that night I began my project......almost a week later, here it is. So as I always say, this is by far my favourite piece I've done. Everything from the strings to the woodwinds to the brass, everything just kind of meshed well.....Earlier this week, I was in a sticky situation deciding if I wanted to bring in the drumkit and the bass since I had the electric guitar featured, however whenever I tried doing the orchestration on top of it, it just didn't fit well....it wasn't like Metal Gear Solid well....so I had to figure out a different way to make it upbeat and triumphant without the aid of a drum kit......Luckily an inspiration came along and it was all figured out! However the next problem was that progressive triumphant segment.......this is where Coldplay is singing "Tears stream down your face" blah blah blah.....so I had to figure out how to keep the orchestration captivating and yet still endure 32 some odd measures at the same time.....But it was interesting to note that within two days I was able to knock off those 32+ measures....And the of course the ending was another issue to figure out......did I want it to end like coldplay's original? and then I though "Pshh, I'm the arranger, heck no!" So all in all, in a matter of 5 days this piece came to life........I was getting tired of listening to terrible orchestrated covers on youtube and what not so I had to do a cover to prove that you can do a proper orchestra cover on a rock song using a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) like Logic Pro or Cubase or whatever and some proper sample libraries like EWQL or MOTU. So yes, this entire performance is all done on a computer, precisely my 13 inch MacBook Pro with 8 GB of RAM with a 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, using Logic Pro and everything was used with EWQL with a few instruments from the Logic library (the piano and the guitars with some cymbals). Anyway, so some influences......John Williams work on Saving Private Ryan, the piece "Hymn to the Fallen", and also Jurassic Park haha! But otherwise there was no other outside influence for this piece, aside from Coldplay and their melody.....oooh I will mention that Lex de Azevado was an influence for the piano segment when you first hear it trickling down. Other than that, yeah I'm just super impressed that I managed to complete it within 5 days.....anyway, enjoy it, comment on it, suggest stuff, whatever......and also I'll have a youtube video up whenever later this week displaying the massive file in action....ENJOY!

An original loungey progressive track which explores Logic's Sculpture modeling synth and a natural overall sound. The 3/4 time experiment succeeded and is rather transparent and danceable.
