Enter the Temple

An upload for a friend. I was discussing voice leading and chord voicing.

This is Why Chord Voicing is Important!!!

From  my new  album "aes·thet·ics"

Mood Exhibit - Oaks! [new album out on Bandcamp]

The last track of the upcoming pandemic inspired album. Took much longer than expected this time. Not the easiest times for writing music, yet especially in times like these it is needed most. Intentionally simple.

The Gift

The beauty in Finland's nature inspires me greatly. One can sense nature's presence in all of Sorrot music. This particular song was composed in Winter 2021 as I looked through my window and watched the falling snowflakes in a winter storm. Part of upcoming 4 song EP dedicated to the seasons in nature.

「欲シガリマセン勝ツマデハ」

"I will not be selfish to my father or mother until we win the war."

One of the Japanese government's war slogans during World War II. It was said to have been invented by an 11-year-old girl at the time, but it was recently discovered that her father had invented it.

Song For Sylvia

Happy New Year everyone!  My first piece of the new year, A Moment in Time, is just a blip in the big picture of the universe and our life.  Incomprehensible really.  But everyday we experience each moment as a fully integrated part of our being.  However long or short, these moments are the DNA of existence or conciousness while alive on this earth.  Thank you all for a wonderful 2024 and supporting my music.  I am infinitely inspired and humbled by the extraordinary creativity I hear from your music each day!  THANK YOU! Here's to 2025!

A Thought in Winter (J.Roe)

Heidi-Marie Arapa aka #ARAPAMusic - Soundcloud is my creative space - Not here for fame, fortune I'm here to produce music & have fun.  I play the piano accordion, piano & synthesiser.

Discovered Soundcloud in 2012 and somehow ended up in the world of electronic music production, singing jazz not that i'm great but its fun.

"I create all kinds of music" I can literally produce any genre - Music Composition, Orchestration & Global Collaborative Projects since 2012 - now dedicating my life to music composition, production & sound.  If my music resonates I appreciate your support if not that's fine as well.

New Album Released 29 August 2024

My parents listened to Franz Liszt - I still have the original record so I ended up a fan.  My music teacher was the late: Anatoly Miroshnyk (born August 19, 1923 - died July 14, 2011) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, teacher, musician and public figure.

We often think of talented musicians as folks who start young and advance their skills via the finest education available to them. While this is certainly true in some cases, there are plenty who realised many of their artistic capacities without the aid of specialised instruction or a degree in music.

Where words leave off, music begins.. Not everyone has the ability to compose music I also enjoy singing Jazz & Blues with musicians on Wikiloops a truly amazing community.

Through life I've always been passionate about music composition and the internet & technology made it possible.

Find my global music journey since 2012 below:

https://linktr.ee/ArapaMusic

I've been tested by an examiner from the Australian Conservatorium of Music & apparently I have perfect pitch and blessed with the ability to accompany any musician, add hooks to any genre - as a singer I’m not great but who cares thats why most is spoken word - most of all I enjoy the creativity.

I have my own style - either you like it or not -  always open for collaborations

🎤I have no fear of perfection - will never reach it 🎧   I don’t have the perfect voice nor am I aiming to be the best I'm only human with a passion for what I love music is in my heart.

Thank you to all who believe in me and MOST OF ALL my amazing Mentor thank you Sir for encouraging me to NEVER GIVE UP it all takes time and practice.

My mixing & mastering techniques have been learned from Youtube tutorials & experimenting with Logic Pro X.   I love the creativity and flexibility music production - a continual learning journey  #passion #persistence #perspiration #patience
 
An accomplished piano accordionist having started at the age of 5 - an instrument I was expected to learn in life we sometimes don’t get a choice but I’m grateful to have been given the opportunity to learn an instrument.  I retired the piano accordion a few years ago after being introduced to electronic music production & I will never stop doing what I love most.  

I'm a dedicated musician for life.
