Sitting On The Grass B Incomplete

So I've noticed that a lot of you are from Texas. I'mma drop this here and see what happens. And it's free! Got get 'er, boys!

P.S.: Tex didn't recover very well from the Peyote Coyote legal debaucle. Apparently it's an IRL band. We need a new name. See https://soundcloud.com/doctor_jekyll/peyote-coyote-got-bail-to-record-this for more context.

Deep in the Heart of Texas

Deep in the Heart of Texas (feat. Tex of the BPL on the lapsteel!)

This is a track called The Reckoning, as per requested. Please see http://familiarity.airheart.net/ for more details. No, really I fucking dare you fuckers. Tell Lunch TO MOVE FASTER. He holding up the lane with his blinker on!!!

The Reckoning

Also known as Dilbert3, it's been known to be the starting songs for Space Station 13; an free-to-play video game found at Byond.com. A glimpse of the game can be found here: http://youtu.be/FHH1vfY6HTA

The original composer is Jonathan Dunn and is taken from the Robocop Title Screen. 
This is an original orchestral arrangement taken from source materials. If this ever gets played by an orchestra, my guess is that the musicians' resentment toward me won't be even the quarter of what I've seen playing this game.

I don't expect people to like it; I just had to get rid of an earworm!

Space Station 13 Theme

This is an arrangement of RT Melissa's interpretation shown here: http://youtu.be/KTwm3tF4ulE.

The original song is "Pushups", composed by Hirokazu Tanaka, Ryoji Yoshitomi, and Kazumi Totaka, as found on Mario Paint.

 Just a clean-sounding, easy-to-loop file ready for use on the field.

One-Armed Inverted Pushups (Mario Paint BGM 1 Remix)

It's mostly something I stumbled upon while messing around on my keyboard. Now I studied music for 18 yrs, yet I can't recall if anyone ever mentioned this, but it's possible. And it's mostly classical interpretation and some jazz interpretation, so composition is not my strong suit. 

In classical music theory, we are lead to believe to keep modulations to neighboring tones, give or take an alteration, and their minor relatives. Or so I thought.

So, here it is: there is a way to move tonally to any pitch required using a diminished 7th chord as a turnaround. Since there's only intrinsically 3 different diminished 7th chords, it seems quite simple at a glance to incorporate this with enough experience and knowledge. And we could even make it enjoyable, with even more experience and knowledge, to common folks! (I'm looking at you, Schoenberg.)

In this here study, we use the BDim7 chord(which is also DDim7, FDim7 and AbDim7) to go to unrelated pitches, such as F#Maj(GbMaj), AbMaj, CMaj, and EbMaj. Albeit this is kept on major scales, the minor relatives are also as easily accessible.

Another fun fact, the note used to convert a Dim7 chord to a min7b5 chord is the same note for the Major pitch you will access. E.G., from FDim7, I changed B for a C, making it a Dmin7b5, which naturally leads to GMaj7 and CMaj. From there, on the same pitch, I get to Bmin7b5, change A to Ab to make it a Dim7 chord from it and we're back on the turnaround. As for melodies on the Dim7 chord, you can get away with it with keeping the chord notes on the beat and adding chromatic notes in between.

And lastly, it makes a convenient way to go from CMaj to F#Maj; which, when told the triton is the devil's interval, just begs to be abused. 

Merry melodies!

P.S.:  I may make mistakes when I type about music theory, I learned it in French and I plan to stay a music student for as long as possible. Don't hesitate to rectify me, I would be most obliged to correct myself. :)

Diminished 7th Turnarounds - An indirect modulation study

It's one of those contemplative pieces with just a dash of chromatism and intertwined leads to evoke unsettling past memories.

Lest We Forget

This is a mockup from a song project I've been working on. Since the mockup and final song are quite distinct, I'll be fine dropping it here.

If you can't feel the Final Fantasy vibe in there, you've been playing WoW too much. Also, feel free to use it, for as long as I'm credited. ^___^

I've been playing too much spacemans... 


The original track is Hoch Tirol - Konis Hupen : https://youtu.be/PcRyjkYdDxM
The iTunes link will forward you to their CD. If you like their music, don't forget to buy it!

Konis Hupen (Remix)

Dueling Clowns Feat. Mime [Konis Hupen Remix]

Just a little thing I was working on. Standard sonata form rag.

Overall Rag

This is a "You done goofed" song. Like really messed up and can't go back. Just listen to the dissonance... Whatever you done is really bad. You'd like to go back but that amount of failure is epic... So ludicrous an orchestra is needed to display it. At least you got this song.

Consequences Will Never Be The Same

In accordance to Nanotrasen law and multiple requests, I've been mandated to upload a clean version of this track. All hail Nanotrasen...

Don't kill me. I'm just a bard... I SWEAR, FOR THE LOVE OF RATVAR!

Space Station 13 Theme - Clean

Get Going

As commissioned by the Black Pants Legion, here is Cargonia's national anthem, in the style of a Prussian March. The QM was actually a ling this round... LONG LIVE THE QUARTERMASTER! HAIL CARGONIA!

Lyrics:

Hail, hail Cargonia!
Land of stolen things!
Obey the quartermaster,
unless he's a ling!
Miners! Don't die today...
Cargo techs, push freight!
Our enemies are in dismay,
ALL HAIL CARGONIA!


Our station went to hell,
Security's dead,
Forgot by the head of personnel,
We still go ahead!
Let's rob the armory!
Syndies will not care,
Don't stop for the latent larceny,
No one cares for that there!


Hail, hail Cargonia!
Land of stolen things!
Obey the quartermaster,
unless he's a ling!
Miners! Don't die today...
Cargo techs, push freight!
Our enemies are in dismay,
ALL HAIL CARGONIA!

Cargonian National Anthem (Hail, Hail Cargonia)

Randolph P. Checkers, Esq. sought it wise to start a band! Bass, cowbell and ... triangle. That's it. 

Keep in mind that the pyrotechnics didn't fit in the recording booth. Something about not going in the slammer again. Also, if anyone got some spare cash to help him get his bitchin' van from the pound, get in touch with him pronto.

Origin story can be found here: https://youtu.be/gj5lOxAwHbw?t=20m49s

EDIT: Peyote Coyote is a real band! You can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Nti5A67cbXEOxuNglq4gQ
It's worth a listen.

Got Bail to Record This

The lyrics were really hard on this one... It's a commission from the Black Pants Legion that went better than expected. Naturally, it's not hard to guess the original work. Enjoy!

PS: Tex got flagged on YouTube for this song. It showed that John Denver was hired for this... I am humbled.

Gun Cargo (Vinyl version)

Fanfaronade - Drum Kit Version

A remake of Koji Kondo's Gerudo Valley.
I noticed that OverClocked ReMix doesn't carry a Gypsy Kings version of it, which is weird as it screams Bamboleo; it also happens to be in the same pitch (F# minor)!

This part just lays down the tracks; a few edits were made to make it sound less synthetic.
For my next part, I'll try to to transpose Bamboleo (Fun times ahead...).
Last part should be a symbiosis of both.

ETA: Unknown...

It was wonderful.

Seigneur, tu cherches tes enfants (Let my people go)

This song was from Battle Technology Issue 0102, October 3027. From my research, it was never recorded. The composer is Nina Barton and the lyricist, William H. Keith, Jr.

As such, I present it to you, as used in Tex's analysis of the Amaris Civil War: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c71x68uWd5k

Addemdum: Seems Soundcloud replies got a severe lag... I'll do what I can.

DropShip Thunder

I'm not here to tell you want to think. We all got our own things.
This is what I hear when I'm asked to sing this song. While out of season, it might be useful for some people.

Victimae Pascali Laudes

imo, not the best. But it works.
P.S.: This song is contested for being from Enrico Caruso... I'm humbled.
P.P.S: Left channel? Really?

Capua & Mazzucchi - O Sole Mio

Boss fight? Boss fight. You know it to be true.

I can still promise the soundtrack will be amazing!

Eradication Mandate

I've been sick for the last 6 days. But I had to hold a promise. This is a very short version of the Exultet.

Exultet (Short Version)

An old track. It brings up memories of melancholy.

I'm surprised people didn't know they can download every song...
