I am a scientist who started composing music as a hobby in 2013. I have not studied composition and do not approach it analytically, only intuitively. I took piano lessons in my childhood and teens, but spent most of my adult life without playing piano until 2013. So far I have composed mostly for piano, in a polyphonic style that borrows from the Baroque as well as the Romantic spirit. I describe my style as "Baroquemantic". 

Most of my piano pieces are easy to play.  Some are very easy to play.  

All of my pieces rely on 2 or more concurrent melodies (counterpoint).

A Portuguese guy called "Carlos Miguel" wrote the following on YouTube and  I think this is so so so so true! I will be quoting him everywhere I can:
"...a boa música é como as boas palavras, depende de quem as diz e de quem as ouve...podem não vir a ser nada e podem ser tudo...ou ambas as situações em simultâneo...genial também é quem ouve...pelo seu modo de ouvir... e não só quem  compõe...pelo seu modo de compor...Carlos Miguel"

Freely translated from Carlos Miguel: "...Good music is like good words... it depends on who utters and who listens... it can be nothing or it can be everything... or both simultaneously... for there to be a creative work there needs to be a creative listener as well as a creative composer..."

Began with piano solos and branched out into composing for theater. Transitioning now into new instrumentation and soundscapes in classical, Latin Jazz, some Rock, and experimental ambient music. I also do comedy music!

Beeps, bangs, and everything in between.

I'm attempting to create a CGI music video where alien beings have got together as a band. I've had this idea in my head for years but it was just a dream until i got into CGI. Learning how to use the software is a task on it's own. Writing the music is the easy part! How this band came to be is a deep involved synopsis that would be pointless trying to explain at this stage.

All tracks are so rough at this stage you could sand a door with them. They are purely for the ideas. I'm looking for a female vocalist to sing the computerized  voice parts. Seeing the female vocalist is an alien, the lyrics are irrelevant= sing what you want like the Cocteau Twins Elizabeth Fraser where there are no comprehensible lyrics. But please, if you feel you can Wright proper lyrics then I'm all ears- go for it, I'm open to anything!

Peace.
