Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT

Performed by myself in December of 2022 onward on a Roland FA-08 from memory by ear with no sheet music, as one track with 2 hands.

Silmarillion Stuff

This is a marriage proposal song, I hope you like my sound.

Marry Me

Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT

Performed by myself in December of 2022 on a Roland FA-08 from memory by ear with no sheet music, as one track with 2 hands.  Original composition, but not monetizing this because I dont wan't New Line or Tolkien Estate to come crush me.
Finrod+Galadriel has to do with the passage in the Silmarillion where Finrod tells Galadriel things are about to go badly.
The following paraphrase:
"Now Finrod Felagund had no wife, and Galadriel asked why this should be."
"And Finrod answered: 'An oath I too must swear, and be free to fulfill it, and go into darkness.  Nor shall anything of my realm endure that a son should inherit.' 
"

FINROD+GALADRIEL

Amateurish stuff about the Silmarillion, no intent to infringe JRRT


The refrain follows the first four lines of the poem of the Eärendillinwë that Frodo heard when he walked off for a minute during the evening in Rivendell and suddenly heard Elvish voices chanting.  The remainder of the piece is intended to shift into sort of a theme of the Silmarillion overall (sort of a cinematic theme) and doesn't follow the rest of poem's words.
Sharp listeners will note a few influences:

1) the spots where it seems to pause are the short bit of music when Aragorn tries to give back the Evenstar to Arwen, shortly after the halfway point of the Two Towers movie (when we had discs it was a minute or 2 into the 2nd disc after Eowyn gives Aragorn the rabbit stew ("The Evenstar does not wax or wane...").  With a triumphal major-key phrase-ending intended for Beren & Luthien that differs from the Two Towers phrase.

2) a few places I borrow from the Returner's Hideout theme in Final Fantasy 6.

Eärendillinwë 2022 06 13 Rough

Non tu n’es pas la fille d’ipanema
Tu n’es pas
Cette Garotta là tu n’es pas 
La fille d’Ipanema
Car comme tu vois
Y a qu’elle qui m'a mis en émoi…  https://open.spotify.com/track/6AX9i0PpQ0Rt3vid3RmiXr?si=586a102cb5d74527

Crime Scene Do Not

Bossa Ipanema

A new version of the Eärendillinwë  that I earlier released 10 months ago, but
in pure piano form, so that people can hear the chord structure
better, with a more relaxed pace where I could put the
phrases that were missing from the first one.

When I recorded in summer 2022 I had the metronome click
on and felt rushed for time - this version puts some good
things back into it.  Those with a good ear for cinematic
music will note that I am borrowing the ending phrase partly
from a scene in Richard III (1955) with Laurence Olivier.
Those who don't know it - go watch the movie.  You'll instantly
recognize where I pulled this from.

All rights reserved to the Tolkien Estate and whoever currently
holds the music rights to the Richard III movie.  This is very
pointedly a non-monetized, free track.  Just as the earlier version.

Eärendillinwë (Piano, Alternate Phrases)

The four-part playlist link for the battle specifically is this:
soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/sets/of-the-fifth-battle-nirnaeth

This track is not monetized.
All rights reserved to the Tolkien Estate, New Line, etc, whoever holds all the Tolkien rights.  Completely free track.  Enjoy

A little very-to-the-point thing about the midsummer morning when forces lined up for the Battle of Unnumbered Tears.

IYKYK
if you dont check this
https://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Nirnaeth_Arnoediad

or the old fashioned way, is to find the pertinent chapter "Of The Fifth Battle..."  in the Silmarillion

Looking around soundcloud...
A bunch of other metal things go into the main course of the battle.
This here is more of a study of when they were initially hopeful at the start.
(Whereupon anyone else's main battle stuff, is completely valid following this thing, more power to that)

Sharp observers will notice phrases re-used from the two different versions of Earendillinwe in my track list, it is encouraged to also check those out (and the track notes of both).

The Great March

Didn't belabor the details of the battle itself which was short and swiftly victorious.  Mostly dwells on Fëanor getting himself killed and his final scenes.

End of Dagor-nuin-Giliath / Death Of Fëanor

REC00034 ( A world without Tim ) LONG LIVE THE MUSIC OF AVICII

Brand new (original lyrics)

Une fusion entre la musique traditionnelle et le rock due à la rencontre de la vielle et de la guitare électrique.
Dominique Forges et Alban Bouquette forment Aldo-Forgette.
Ici une  Polka-Boogie,  composition du groupe. Dominique à la vielle soprano
Alban aux guitares, à la basse et aux synthés.
Contact scène = Aldo-Forgette@orange.fr

Laissez-vous dire

Hurdy-Gurdy Boogie

“I Am Full of Lies”
A haunting vocal DnB piece soaked in emotion and self-conflict.
Brings full vocals over a driving beat — for anyone who's ever faked a smile too well.
Let the bass carry the weight you’ve been hiding.

🎧 If you feel this — repost, comment, and let it spin.

I am full of lies

Tra le luci

My Baby

Disconnected Pole

Original version is dated Y2K, this one has been partially re-recorded and remixed. Some instruments were swapped (cello > organ synth), some remained the same.

past present (2012)

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
