It has been some time since I last posted. In fact, my last piece, yet to be completed has progressed but I haven't found the time to lay down the rhythm and lead guitar work I came up with. Hopefully in the next couple of months. 

In the meantime, sitting here... got inspired by things as they are, confined, yet somehow liberating... free, creative and well, inspired. 

There's hope after all. 

Finding Hope (again)

Cheers for listening

Please enjoy my improvisational tribute for one of the maestros - for Bach. I appreciate subscriptions to my YouTube channel ;-)

I'd also like to announce the upcoming release (18th of December!) of my 4th original piano album "Spirit of Journey". The album will be available as a digital album on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify etc. 

The album is available on BandCamp already, both as a digital album and on CD! I will gladly sign the first ordered copies :) https://milana.bandcamp.com/album/spirit-of-journey

Whenever I start improvising, I am taken on a journey. Melodies and harmonies constantly move and while they do, they let me create scenes from places I've never been to. Yet, the music has the spirit that unites and translates all of that to the listener. 

I invite you to share the spirit of this journey with me. This piano album is about a constant movement, dynamic rhythms and rich harmonies on the edge of jazz and rock. Cinematic soundtracks will take you to mysterious gardens, detective stories, a maze of surreal dreams and a moonlight stroll. 

With huge thanks to my husband and family. They are my own spirit, my journey, my music. 

Yours, 
M.

For Bach

"For Bach" by Milana (Acoustic, Live Video)

Another one that seems incomplete. To be continued....?

Mysterious Notes

Something I will revisit. To be continued.....

Weirdly Dimensions

Just some fun with speaker panning, and such (the "stranger keys")

Even Stranger Keys

Just needed to get this one out. This is what came out. Simple, yet complex. Lightly mixed.

Sad Move On

A Theremin Nightmaric Affair

No particular theme except harmony.....final version, post edit (forget a section!)
Grandpiano, cellos, violins
--------------
Completed score. Completed sound edit. Enjoy.

Hippidy, Hoppidy (Re-Edit)

Return to Marmara

Something I had kicking around, been meaning to upload but wasn't quite sure about a few things. I like the slow drive to this one, feels like you're determined to get something done, get somewhere. The words spoken "Elee elee", I believe are Aramaic for "light". 
Enjoy!

Into The Light

Version 3
Note: The final version will include rhythm and lead guitar tracks.

It has been some time. I had some issues lets say with my setup/gear etc... anyway. Fall is upon is, during this pandemic no less.... my creativity awoke yesterday. Aside from my son.... I live for that. Cheers for listening and commenting.

About this piece:
This is something I've wanted to put together for a while, the main melody comes from the documentary by John Romer.
Byzantium: The Lost Empire.
I really like the music in that, and what I extrapolated on is small, but I like the result.
You will most certainly recognize the voice/vocals from other material I have posted on soundcloud, so in a way this composition is a culmination of all of that. Eery, haunting Byzantine chants...in Greek and Aramaic. Enjoy.

Project - Forever Rhomaioi (ver3)

Hello world. This is my music profile... a passion I have in life. So far it has allowed me to channel many things, including many interests into many compositions, what I feel is personal art, inspired by life, learning, living, feeling... breathing. Music is universal, it is a constant for all. It connects us on levels above and beyond and transcends what cannot be described in words. 
Born and raised in Montreal, Québec Canada. 
I have a particular interest in the period of time known as the high-middle ages. This, I try, to convey, in my way, with my influences. (not limited to this however....) There's a definite 'western rock' and classical edge and sound respectively to many of my compositions, however, this is likely only due to my limited knowledge(so far) in various instruments and digital composition. I also direly need to purchase a keyboard. Believe it or not, most of my work is done through a piano roll, lots tweaking and tinkering, lots of time and patience. I like to think, my music conveys my soul... a therapy of work I dare to share.

My DAW: A decent i7 quad core. 
Sequencing software of choice: FL Studio + VSTs
Instruments (played): Guitar, bass
Instruments (digitial): Violin, cello, piano, drums, etc..
