Struck Soundtrack - Main Theme

Music by Michael Wonyoung Choi
Score Recorded Live at Synchron Stage, Vienna, Austria
Recording Session organized by Hollywood Music Workshop 2018

"Celles et Ceux des Cimes et Cieux" is a form of a trailer for a fantasy animation. 
An astray, young boy from the village of Giant Tree meets two unlikely companions who will help him to go back home. They go through many dangers and wonders together. Would they able to find a way to the Village of Giant Tree? Perhaps, there will be another great, and heroic tale to come.

With an approval by Gwenn Germain, the animator of the "Celles et Ceux des Cimes et Cieux," the rescoring the animation project was one of the exciting projects that I have done so far.

Also, the Hollywood Music Workshop provided the amazing opportunity to record this project. The work was recorded in the Synchron Stage, one of the world-class studios for the scoring, along with a team of Hollywood experts and Vienna Musicians, the entire session was a success.

Finally, my deep gratitude to Mr. Germain for his permission, and the entire faculty of Hollywood Music Workshop and the Synchron Stage who supported and led the recording session successfully.

Celles et Ceux des Cimes et Cieux (Rescore)

Gore soaked parody of Lou Bega's Mambo No. 5

Murder No. 5

Winter Trends

The beat(https://soundcloud.com/shani_ace/github) for this song evolved through 2016-2020 until it got that rock-y vibe I was looking for.

It's a song about resisting oppression when you're feeling paralyzed and powerless against all kinds of authorities.
Be that politicians, police, parents or generally the old generation holding back the young generation when it comes to climate change, the pandemic, discrimination and even people fighting for friggin toiletpaper!

Some have pointed out a Linkin Park vibe that I previously wasn't aware of but it makes total sense, they're one of my favourite bands!

Lyrics:

Paralyzed & Powerless

Verse:
			
This goes out to all the people in power					
The “authority” keeping us in a chokehold
The old guard tryna take control
Of the young generation as a whole
To all the overbearing parents and grandparents
You didn’t exactly leave us the best inheritance
The planet’s dying, as are many ill and sick people
But you focus on money not the will of the people
Instead of fostering a sense of community
You divide us with fear and with stupid greed
Get peepz fighting over toilet paper in the store
With some support/ we could do so much more
Instead of riding the waves like a Jetski
You keep us down, you don’t want us to get free
I can’t deny, how much it affects me
I feel paralyzed, ‘cause you won’t let me:

Hook (2x):

Feel/ I belong									
Think/ nothing’s wrong
Know/ that I’m strong
Live / how I want
Try/ to succeed
Aim/ For my shot
Get / what I need
Give/ all I got

Bridge:

All the times I wanted something from you					
But never got anything
All the times I needed something from you
You weren’t there to help me, nooo
All the times I wanted something from you					
I never got anything, anything
All the times I wanted something from you
I just got shit

Verse:

You won’t give me what I want, what I need					
Sometimes I’d just want you to see/ How you’re endlessly
... hampering/ chances of others
And how you’re pretending/ to stand above others
Instead of lending/ a hand you just smother
Anyone who needs cover/ you abandon your brothers 
Which is evidently/ not very friendly
But I’m not expecting you to understand me
Cause you and I, we live in different worlds
You got the power to help/ I got neither power nor help
You won’t let me fullfil my potential 
But tell me everything I do is inconsequential
I could do so much good, be so much more
But now I can’t even pick myself up from the floor
Instead of making my own thing like Etsy
I feel powerless, ‘cause you won’t let me:

Hook (2x)

Canto :

All the times I wanted something from you					
You just didn’t care
But every time you needed help from me
I was there, I was thehehere

Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed & Powerless	
I feel Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed & Powerless
I feel Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed & Powerless

Paralyzed & Powerless
I feel Paralyzed & Powerless	
Powerless
Powerless
I feel Paralyzed & Powerless	
Paralyzed, so paralyzed

PROGRAM NOTES
CAPTCHA originated with an assignment I was given as a participant in the American Opera Projects (AOP) Composers & The Voice program. Throughout the year, we wrote a variety of arias and songs and were given various "challenges." Some of the challenges included using no more than four lines of text, using found text, using prose, and also trying to avoid the passagio (a term used in classical singing to describe where different voice ranges cross over, for example, where the chest voice and head voice cross). I neglected to incorporate any of the challenges into previous pieces, and I only had one song or aria left, so I had to incorporate all of the remaining challenges into a single piece.

For found text, I decided to use CAPTCHA texts. The term CAPTCHA (for Completely Automated Public Turing Test To Tell Computers and Humans Apart) was coined in 2000 by scientists at Carnegie Mellon University. A CAPTCHA is a program that protects websites against bots by generating and grading tests that only humans can pass. For example, humans can read distorted text presented as a graphic, but current computer programs cannot. To find interesting words and phrases, I spent many tedious hours in front of my computer loading CAPTCHA texts. Actually, what I ended using are reCAPTCHA texts, which are derived from a free version of CAPTCHA that uses combinations of real words from scanned books that need human confirmation and gibberish text.

I initially wrote one song entitled CAPTCHA for baritone and piano, but later decided to compose an entire song cycle that incorporates the original song. Each songs uses a few key words (the few that are actually real words and phrases) as a springboard. I attempt to phonetically interpret the other words and phrases that don’t make sense, infusing emotion where none exists. Ultimately, my goal is to create an emotionally moving experience, despite the nonsensical nature of the words.

CAPTCHA (Version For Mezzo-Soprano And Piano) - I. Duchenp Fled

Thought it was about time I wrote a song with a girl's name as the title. Couldn't make my mind up and came up with this. The Beautiful South's Song for Whoever perhaps a subliminal influence. In my head, it sounds like Elvis Costello or maybe Bob Dyan. Needs work, re-arranging but a live favourite nonetheless.

Song About Girls

Guitar driven hard rock with a touch of electronica, served up with Mid Western attitude.
