Opening track in the "Seven Dreams of the Orb Weaver" album https://soundcloud.com/skai-eriksson/sets/seven-dreams-of-the-orb-weaver.  The album has been reworked, remastered, and released in collaboration with the charitable music project Playing to Pitch In.

This track serves as a prelude to the rest and for the subsequent track "Ocean Star" in particular.  The rest of the album is rather dark and emotional, so in this prelude I aimed for something light, calm, and peaceful with just a hint at some of the later darker themes.  The impressionist-style waterfall just after the middle of the song is indeed Debussy-inspired (it is just a simple pentatonic pattern similar to ones that appear in plenty of songs, but for me this type of pentatonic run is iconic of Debussy's Arabesque).  The 6/4 time signature gives a little extra space to elaborate on this riff, and I was pleased with how it sounds as a resolution to the cadence leading up to it.  While the song has a shifting tonal center, it is certainly not as tonally destabilized as Debussy's music, and this (along with the simplicity of the locomotive rhythm) affords an opportunity to prepare the listener for a climactic sense of arrival as the pentatonic run appears.   I wanted the middle section of the song to offset the minimalism that is present at the beginning and end of the song, and this Debussy-style riff serves as a nice centerpiece for that.

A very warm welcome. Thank you for listening. So many great composers and songwriters inspire me including the work and encouragement of the contributors here on SoundCloud.

I grew up in the Florida Keys where both of my parents worked as musicians in the entertainment business.  My grandmother taught me to play the piano at an early age.  I ended up pursuing a career in mathematical research and teaching, but in my free time I enjoy composing music mainly for piano.

Composer/Songwriter. Proficient performer of piano, bass guitar, double bass, cello, 6 string , 12 string , drums, triangle (shall I include tambourine too?🤣), vocals, lyrics. 99% of the tracks on this page are original songs. None of my performances on any of my tracks, whether solo work, or collaboration, have any editing whatsoever. Effects and equalization? Of course! But no editing, no software, etc. Quite a substantial amount of these tracks are with The Eclectic Collective. We are like family and have been playing together on a daily basis since approximately March of 2022 as the Eclectic Collective. Before the band bore it's name Eclectic Collective; Josh, Ken, Stephen, Tez, and  CG Maness were doing some occasional collabs. At any given time we are all simultaneously working on about 15 different songs. And when we feel they are done cooking in the oven we release them.  We release a song every week on Fridays at 4AM UTC

Welcome to my page.

I appreciate all the comments, likes and repost that you leave me in my compositions.

I make music for fun and to get away. I have multiple styles, although my biggest influence is in electronic music.

I am self taught and learned with Music Studio 2 on a first generation ipad 11 years ago. I have never composed before. Perform more than 80 songs a year for the first 6-7 years to learn about the program and develop creativity to compose. I have listened to different types of music throughout my life and maybe that has helped me.

I still compose only with an ipad (last generation), but I no longer work only with native MS2 instruments since I have expanded my instrument library with programs such as Audiokit, Digital D1, kv331, Sunrizer, etc ...

My music can be downloaded, but not used for commercial purposes (my authorization is required).

During the last two years I have encouraged myself to collaborate with professional or self-taught musicians like me. Are these:

Annie Smart

Dan DT

Loue ghazi

Lukowig

Mirjam Keijnemans

Nathalie B20

Subzero

Osc Project

Vicent

Winkanwoo

Wypernet

Thanks to them for their generous timeshare and patience.

You can contact me by sending me a message through SC.

Thanks for visiting.

First and foremost, thank you so much for visiting my SoundCloud! Since I stepped into the world of Soundcloud, I've been obsessed with discovering countless fascinating pieces of music. Music frees my soul and heals my heart. I believe in the infinity of music and entrust it with emotions and hopes that cannot be expressed in words.Our precious journey called “Life” always continues with music. Thank you very much for reading and listening! I wish you all enjoy your own great journey/life!

- Most of the pieces were played on my upright piano (YAMAHA/1970) and recorded on a mobile phone. The condition of the piano is unstable, but I’m enjoying the unique texture of the sound. I sincerely hope you enjoy my music🍀

Dal 2007 fa parte (con Manuel Lain) del duo Le Pecorecaramellate che ha all'attivo un Cd (Una botte e via! edito da Sesto Esercizio Records) e ha partecipato (Cagliari, 10 Ottobre 2015, Nuovo Panificio) al Multiversal EXP-OFF. 
Il 1 Maggio 2016, sempre al al Nuovo Panificio, ha partecipato, con la Roaring Pianolas Orchestra, alla perfomance live "pianoltre"

A small note on my own behalf: I have noticed that my playback figures have dropped dramatically. The statistics show that the number of playbacks has dropped from 2000 per week to just under 200.
On the one hand, this is frustrating, as everyone sees this as an indicator and confirmation of their work. On the other hand, figures are not particularly important, but one wonders what is wrong. In my opinion, SC has changed a lot, uploading tracks has become more complicated and constant security queries are annoying.
In addition, great artists are disappearing from the platform, partly by their own choice, partly because they have been banned, the algorithm has “recognized” them as spam and mercilessly deleted their account. I'm still a paying member, but my attitude towards this has changed...

Please let me know your experiences and impressions.

😮‍💨😔


When I don't have the time to actively listen to my favorite artists on soundcloud, I just leave the stream running...while washing up in the kitchen, for example 😆

********************************************************************

A long, long time ago, there was an organ in the Christmas-decorated living room in his parents' house, where Frank grew up. Originally bought by his father for his two older siblings, they showed no interest in playing the organ. Frank, however, did. White and black keys and giving off strange sounds. 

So at the age of 9 he began to let his fingers circle on this instrument, searching for the right keys like on a typewriter. And another 9 years would pass before he could buy his first own instrument. Already at the age of 13 he made notes about the then current synthesizers, bought one magazine after the other and visited music fairs in Frankfurt, Germany.

His first keyboard was the Yamaha DSR-2000, which he bought in a music store near his hometown Biebertal. In installments! Finally he could develop himself further - away from the limited tonality of the small organ. The built-in 8-track sequencer helped him to reach unimagined heights. 
Little by little his equipment expanded and his ambition to create music like that of Jean-Michel Jarres came closer. Influenced by this and countless other musicians of the time, his interest grew, but he taught himself everything. Not even having attended a music school or being able to read music at all, he wrote one song after another and recorded them on the only medium available to him at the time: audio cassettes.
Many of these recordings are unfortunately lost forever, because cassettes are and were not the best recording medium. He has to try to play many of his songs from memory. 

In 2007, he fulfilled a long-awaited wish: to buy a KORG. He had always wanted to own one, but with the latest synthesizers at the time of their release having a purchase price of over 6000 D-marks (the currency of the time in the 1980s and 1990s), that dream of owning one was far away. So in 2007 he bought a used KORG 01W/FD at ebay. And as before with the purchase of the Yamaha keyboard, a completely new world opened up to him.

In addition, there were expanders and sound modules from Kawai, Roland and Yamaha (K1m, SC-55, QY10). Six years later his enthusiasm for making music ebbed and rediscovered his hobby (which it always was and still is). In 2018 in April he decided to present his music to a wider audience and uploaded his first song on the platform soundcloud. Since that time, thanks also to the ever-evolving software, he continues to evolve, experiment and relive his times through music.

Musicien depuis l’âge de 13 ans, je n’ai jamais cessé d’être amoureux de la musique.
J’ai participé à un concours international francophone dans les années 80.
Par la suite, j’ai créé le groupe Top-Sonart qui a été en nomination deux fois à l’Adisq,et qui a pris fin en 1987.
J’ai ensuite écrit plusieurs chansons et musiques qui n’ont jamais joué nulle part. C’est pourquoi je les partage maintenant avec la planète par Soundcloud.
Bonne écoute!

Musician since the age of 13, I have never stopped being passionate about music.
I participated in an international Francophone competition in the 80s.
Subsequently, I created the band Top-Sonart who was nominated two times at l’Adisq and which ended in 1987.
I then wrote several songs and music pieces that never played anywhere. That's why I now share them with the planet through Soundcloud.
Enjoy.

Willkommen in meiner Welt  ( Wolke ) der Musik.

Von Anbeginn meiner Zeit fühle und denke ich in Musik. 
Das ist es. 
Ich finde meine hier veröffentlichten Kompositionen vermitteln das.  
Obwohl ich etwas Klavierunterricht hatte komponiere ich autodidaktisch, völlig frei im Moment.  
Nicht immer sind es gefällige Harmonien. Versucht meine Musik einfach unvoreingenommen und völlig wertfrei von Euren Hörgewohnheiten zu hören.

Folgt gerne meiner Klangwelt. 
Freue mich über meinen Musik-Account auf einen regen, kreativen inspirierenden Gedankenaustausch. 
Suche hier gleichgesinnte Sounddesigner*innen und Komponisten*innen die vielleicht mit mir ein verrücktes Klangteam bilden möchten um neue Klangwelten zu entdecken und kreieren.

Welcome to my world  ( Cloud ) of music.

From the beginning of my time feel and think in music.
That's it.
I think my compositions published here convey that.
Although I had some piano lessons, I compose self-taught, completely free at the moment.
It's not always pleasing harmonies. Just try to listen to my music unbiased and completely unjudged by your listening habits.

Feel free to follow my sound world.
I'm looking forward to a lively, creative and inspiring exchange of ideas via my music account.
I am looking for like-minded sound designers and composers who might want to form a crazy sound team with me to discover and create new worlds of sound.
