Remix de Planet Net, soundtrack de la série Code Lyoko que je suivais à l'époque. J'adorais Odd, d'ailleurs. =D Bref, je me suis inspiré du Remix de Kikou et de cette vidéo pour le réaliser. Clin d'oeil au générique de Code Lyoko à la fin ;)

Pantomime uses the same instrumental resources as Mozart's Gran Partita. Its five movements rework key moments of the score I wrote for a Christmas show in the early 1990s and was composed as a 10th (I think) birthday present for the Haffner Ensemble who gave its premiere in a place far, far away (well, Brighton). This performance was a collaboration between RNCM students and London Winds at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.

SON of the STORM by Stephen Melillo 13:42 Demo Excerpts

Uptown Funk (Sax Ensemble and Drums)

Another track to add to my small arsenal of songs written for Uni. I had to write a comedy song, and I recorded for my teacher and the sound quality was surprisingly good, so I though you guys could have it too, seeing as I've been so so so quiet lately!

Probably won't post anything before Christmas now, so MERRY CHRISTMAS

Lyrics:

ever since i first moved out
some parts of me have changed
when caring for yourself you find
your life gets rearranged

That is just how these things go
Im really not ashamed
But when you’re back at mommy’s house
you’ll generally be blamed

When she thinks its ok
to come and wake me up
by opening my door
and pulling all the covers off

But I sleep naked

before i moved to London
I was living at my dad’s
I found I couldn’t function
With a case of super-sads

Now daddy, bless his heart
He thinks I’m still a little girl
But when he came to wake me, man
I really thought he’d hurl

I have things tucked away
That he’d rather have not seen
But I am not to blame, old man
I don’t mean to be mean

I just sleep naked

Living with a partner yeah
you tend to touch each other and its
easier to do so without clothes
Now, I used to wears pjs
that were taken off me most days
so I wrote this song so everybody knows

It’s a habit

and I sleep naked

now my house has bed bugs
Out of no fault of my own
And talking to the landlords like
Getting blood out of a stone

But he found inspiration
he called for extermination
Entered rooms without permission
for his bed bug killing mission

And he came up the stairs
To my bedroom’s mezzanine
and was really quite confused
When boyfriend started to get mean

There’s no cause, there’s no right
To invade my privacy
So don’t hold me responsible
If you barge in and see

That I sleep naked

I Sleep Naked (rough recording)

World premier of "Ashen Skies of a Timeworn World." Performed by the University of Texas at Austin Wind Ensemble under the direction of Jerry Junkin.

Notes:
I've always had this strange fascination with the mortality of the universe. While the fate of the Earth will likely be absorption by the expanding red giant that our sun will become in 5 billion years, the end of life is a bit more ambiguous. Assuming humanity, or whatever we might have evolved into, doesn't make it to the dying of the sun, we might succumb to celestial events (asteroids, Near-Earth supernovas, etc.), the increasing luminosity of the sun causing the extinction of plant life, or climate-related events (human-caused or otherwise) to name a few. Fun stuff to think about, right? Lately, however, it seems increasingly likely that humanity will be its own undoing. Technology continues to evolve and allow for increasingly powerful means of mass destruction, while many nations still seem to be at strife internally or with one another.   Ashen Skies of a Timeworn World depicts a dystopian future that has already been ravaged by human conflict. The first part of the piece, titled "Desolation," opens with a solo trumpet introducing the haunting "ashen skies" theme. The music that follows paints a solemn and sorrowful Earth on its last legs. All hell breaks loose during the second half of the piece, aptly titled "War Machines." Brass and percussion herald the end time, melting faces with intense and drivingly rhythmic music. A glimmer of humanity's perseverance for survival shines through towards the end, but inevitably the world crumbles with destruction.
