This is my compilation of #Notevember compositions from 2018. The idea of #Notevember is to create one song per day throughout the entire November - a total of 30 songs in 30 days.

#Notevember 2018

Day 01 of #notevember 2018! What would happen if one decided to subvert traditional blues into a modal lydian b7 composition? Well here's the answer, music nerds! Enjoy!

Day 05 of #notevember 2018! Song created by electronically manipulating and expanding the sounds of an acoustic guitar. Plus drums, to make it sound like post-rock.

Day 08 of #notevember 2018! This is my first time doing grindcore. It should sound extremely dirty and meant to reflect a sense of nausea.

Vomitcore

#Notevember 2018 - 09 - Vomitcore

Day 09 of #notevember 2018! I don't really like my voice and I need a lot of training to make it sound good. Yeah. But it didn't stop me from doing this tacky thing anyway! Lyrics in portuguese.

Pão Com Requeijão

#Notevember 2018 - 08 - Pão Com Requeijão

Day 10 of #notevember 2018! Paying a synth/ambient homage to Vangelis and Blade Runner, with a twelve-tone harmony reminiscent of Messiaen's techniques.

Synth Rain

Tribal Percussion

#Notevember 2018 - 15 - Tribal Percussion

Day 16 of #notevember 2018! Small minimalistic piece for string trio inspired by Steve Reich's ideas of small tempo differences between instruments - Only a bit more drastic and fast.

Minimalistic Changes

#Notevember 2018 - 16 - Minimalistic Changes

Day 17 of #notevember 2018! Small piece based on early 8-bit game soundtracks. The challenge here is to create an interesting soundtrack using one single monophonic melody.

Early 8-Bit Tune

#Notevember 2018 - 17 - Early 8-Bit Tune

Day 18 of #notevember 2018! This time I'm doing a thrash metal song with a singing style I always wanted to try. Kinda like the result!

Thrash Critiques

#Notevember 2018 - 18 - Thrash Critiques

Day 19 of #notevember 2018! Funk Carioca is a kind of electronic dance style which emerged from the favelas (slums) of Rio de Janeiro. I subverted lyrics by Bezerra da Silva and gave it a try. It has a simple minor harmony and major melody - this kind of politonality became popular in the style.

#Notevember 2018 - 19 - Rio Favela

Day 20 of #notevember 2018! Short modal (lydian #5) piece for music box, respecting the limitations of a small machine. Plus, I wrote it because I wanted her to have a different good morning.
