Name: Running Against It (Take It As You Will) by Night Spyre in December '20
Duration: 1 min 26 s
Description: An attempt at sculpting a soft/ sad piano sound to fit the vibe of this piece. This was originally a piece that I composed for a Trimester Final Project for a class, but I tried to mix it in a DAW to make it sound better than the default MIDI piano SoundFont.

Dark Energy

This song is the result of a game of 'musical round robin'. Musical Round Robin is a game where each player takes turns adding stems to a track. We had 4 people participate, Atlantic Canyons, C.T. Lee, R!dley, and Night Spyre.

On the piano and strings we have Night Spyre. Bringing the drums and bass we have R!dley. We have C.T. Lee on the beeps and boops, and front and center we have the talented ADL (Atlantic Canyons) on vocals!

Another Morning (feat Atlantic Canyons, C.T. Lee, R!dley, and Night Spyre)

This song is the result of a game of 'musical round robin'. Musical Round Robin is a game where each player takes turns adding stems to a track. We had 4 people participate, R!dley, Miketallica, Neuby Wan Kaneuby, and Clone Owners Association. 

Clone Owners Association, Miketallica and Neuby Wan Kaneuby started with an old riff idea that Neuby Wan Kaneuby had, which was supposed to be a punk rock song.  Clone and Mike then messed around with the riff, and came up with a cool synth and bass riff.  R!dley added a groovy drum track, and then Neuby Wan Kaneuby wrote the lyrics, and tracked the vocals. Clone then did the mix/mastering to make it sound like the coolness you're hearing today.

Active Imagination

This was the first piece I was able to finish after my MIDI keyboard stopped working. When it first stopped working, my production process was so reliant on using a controller to the point where I couldn't even generate a simple melody or chord progression without it. Although this restriction hampered my ability to produce music in the short run, it really forced me to think differently on how I make music and helped me explore new production techniques and workflows that I otherwise wouldn't have bothered to learn.

This is a more ambient electronic piece set to the scene of gazing out a window during a storm, internally contemplating.
