Name: COM381soup - Assignment 3 - Nocturne Nightmares by Feysal Abdul in COM381soup Assignment 3
Duration: 3 min 14 s
Description: I used a song I love called Nocturne by Paul Mauriat. However I gave it a dark twist. Imagine you are sleeping and are having a sweet dream, until you aren't. It becomes a Nightmare and you are jumping back and forth from dream to nightmare back to dream and so on.

a fine mix of the recognizable and the unrecognizable

COM381soup Assignment 3

I wanted to start with my favorite instrument, the Piano. I played some notes, got some inspiration and a little melody came through. I feel it is rather melancholic, and honestly if a future assignment includes adding a second instrument, I am all in to add a Violin and make the Piano and Violin duo make a nice song together. #COM381soup

COM381soup - Assignment 1 - DOWN

For this version, I improved a few things. First, on the first version I was using one of the pre recorded MIDI tracks for Piano, which did not give a very natural piano sound. For this version I switched to the Grand Piano and it sounds so much more natural. I used an actual Piano to record this, and for some reason while recording some notes that I should not have pressed recorded and make a few bits of the song sound unnatural. For this version I went and fixed those bits so that it sounds better. Finally for the end of the song I slightly modified the ending so that it sounds a little softer and not too rushed.

[Original Clip is "You are the Blood" by the Castanets on the album "Cathedral"]
I had a lot of fun with this one and am proud of how it turned out. The twisting of the original song—whose structure is to ponder, to exalt, and fail to comprehend the nature of the divine—into one of the destruction of our world by the hands of mechanical fingers rolling through the vast soil, filling it with their blood. Even the concepts of light and sound itself have become inseparable from industry; it is an affront to God.

Lyrics: 
you, you, you, you...

flowing through the soil, are fingers, are trees, are blood (blood blood blood...) 

You are those fingers, and you are the blood


electricity flowing through you (you you you...)

You are, you are, you are, you are industry


industry industry industry industry...


The light, the sound itself, you are blood

industry, in the soil, and up in those trees 


flowing through the soil, are fingers, are trees, are blood

are blood are blood are blood are industry are blood are industry are blood are...
