Very good job man! I hope I can get to this level some day!

I agree.  Great work.  I can only dream about doing music as good as this.  Practice pays off.  Looking forward to JDL's next post!!!

So this is probably the best thing that I've been able to come out with. It's everything that I've learned from a lot of intensive Music Theory study and effort.

This is an old vesion of the track as I'm working with my collaborator on the final verison.

I also need to think of a name for it.

Oh, this track was made entirely using the Nexus 2. I wondered if I could use one synth to do it all and it seems you can.

Not Named V7

A friend of mine suggested that I tell the story of how this track came to be. I have been studying Music theory for a long time now to fulfill my dream of being able to compose music like this.

Well, on the night of the 21st of January I had a dream. In that dream I walk into a room and a person says there's someone here that wants to meet you. He opens a door and says "This is Chopin".

I say "Hi" and he shows me some sheet music, I respond "But I can't read sheet music" and he says "Yes you can". Suddenly I could.

In the dream I saw it as a melody, but I didn't read it as alphabetical notes, I saw it as numbers. I then understood that because I saw it as numbers I could play this melody in any key.

To test this theory I made a chord progression in F minor, added another clip from my MIDI library that I was able to figure out was also in F minor (thank you Music Theory) started making more parts and then layering the pieces together.

Imagine my surprise when what I was told in a dream was entirely correct and I was able to play this melody over it, and now understand how I can play any melody in any key.

And that's why this track is called "Chopin Dreaming"
