Traversing the Galaxy on Borrowed Transportation

Another brooding piano piece with a wide, spacious soundscape.

This is a piece created with LFE (Lisp Flavoured Erlang) using two libraries, one for music theory and the other for converting abstract scales to actual notes as played by a sampled piano. It was actually created as a demo for new (very basic) features that have landed recently.

The progression is as follows: i, ii, V, i, IV, i, ii, V, i, V (Cm, D dim, G, Cm, F, Cm, D dim, G, Cm, G)

Software used:
* Erlang 24 + LFE 2.0
* undertheory, undermidi, midilib
* VI Labs True Keys sampled piano (German)
* Studio One + Analog Delay, Valhalla Room, UAD Capitol Chambers

This is a somber piano piece created using LFE undertone with the Extempore backend and rendered to audio with the beautiful Ravenscroft 275 sampled piano by VI Labs.

This piece was used in the teaser video I created for a talk at an Erlang conference in 2021:
