Get Up

"In the gentle rain of Elysium, every drop carries a promise of peace and eternal bliss."

Elysium is a mythical paradise in Greek and Roman mythology. It's often described as a place of eternal happiness, peace, and contentment, where the souls of the righteous and virtuous dwell after death.

My composition titled "Rain of Elysium" is an Alchemy Pad used in this production.

I have used a combination of instruments to capture the ethereal and serene qualities of Elysium, and introduced the harp's melody to evoke as a gentle patter of rain. 

With the rhythmic patterns & melodies I have accompanied the harp's melody to create a sense of movement and energy.   I have also experimented with different dynamics to create contrast and build tension and release by starting with the arco strings and alchemy pads to intensify the mood.

With the different harmonic progressions I have attempted to add depth and complexity to the music.  The chord voicing have been used to create a unique and atmospheric sound. 

By layering the Alchemy Pads I have created textures and timbres for that airy yet rich and immersive soundscape & ambient noise to create a sense of atmosphere.

Instruments used in this production are:

1.    Orchestral Arco Strings
2.    Studio Grand Piano
3.    Alchemy Analogue Pad
4.    Bassoon Staccato
5.    Orchestra Oboe
6.    Flute Solo
7.    Orchestra Harp
8.    Alchemy Glowing Pad ModW
9.    Bright Arco Strings
10.  Orchestra Bassoon
11.   Full Strings
12.   Violin Section 2 Legato
13.   Alchemy Pad Rain of Elysium

Rain of Elysium in A Minor

Welcome Elara's Story Continues
This is a true story - She exists

Presenting
"Elara" - Facebook Fame

Original - Spoken Word by Heidi-Marie

Born under a bad sign
or just self-obsessed from the start
Elara steps in the room
rips out your very heart
Not with a knife
With a smile so bright
and fake
She'll charm the socks off your soul
for goodness gracious sake
Then twist it, flip it, make it all about her glow
Every conversation, a stage
putting on a show

She talks about her wins
her struggles
her big dreams

She's already re-directing
It's always how it seems
Oh that's nice
but remember my big break last year

Ignoring triumph
planting seeds of doubt and fear

She needs the spotlight
craves the applause
the adoration
A constant thirst for praise
a self-made
grand ovation

Elara's mirror, her own true friend
Reflection perfection
Til the very bitter end

Narcissus reborn
in a world of likes and fame

She'll step on your feelings
to elevate her name
Yeah
Elara's mirror
she don't see nobody else
Just a flawless reflection
trapped inside her gilded cell

Elara's Facebook Fame

You offer advice, a shoulder
a listeing ear, she'll nod and pretend
but the message ain't sincere

She's already schemin'
 how to spin it for her gain
How your vulnerability can soothe her inner pain
Of not being the center
 the absolute grand design
Manipulate your efforts
call your success "mine." 
Friendship's a transaction
a ladder she can climb
Disposing of connections when they're no longer prime
She'll borrow your ideas
then claim them as her own
Leaving you bewildered
 feeling utterly alone
The empathy's absent
the compassion's a facade
Just a means to an end
a path to be applauded.

Elara's Facebook Fame

They say she's a queen
 draped in diamonds and gold 
But her crown's built on others
stories left untold
The tears that she caused
 the trust that she betrayed 
All swept under the carpet
 a silent, dark parade
She builds her empire on fragile
 broken wills
Leaving shattered friendships
and unpayable bills Of emotional wreckage
a trail of hurt and doubt 
While she poses

My parents listened to Franz Liszt - I still have the original record so I ended up a fan.  My music teacher was the late: Anatoly Miroshnyk (born August 19, 1923 - died July 14, 2011) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, teacher, musician and public figure.

We often think of talented musicians as folks who start young and advance their skills via the finest education available to them. While this is certainly true in some cases, there are plenty who realised many of their artistic capacities without the aid of specialised instruction or a degree in music.

Where words leave off, music begins.. Not everyone has the ability to compose music I also sing Jazz & Blues with musicians on Wikiloops a truly amazing community.

 I've always been passionate about music composition and fortunately the internet & technology made it possible to build a community in the clouds.

Find my global music journey since 2012 below:

https://linktr.ee/ArapaMusic

I've been tested by an examiner from the Australian Conservatorium of Music & apparently I have perfect pitch and blessed with the ability to accompany any musician, add hooks to any genre - as a singer I’m not great but who cares thats why most is spoken word.

I have my own style - either you like it or not -  always open for collaborations

🎤I have no fear of perfection - will never reach it 🎧   I don’t have the perfect voice nor am I aiming to be the best I'm only human with a passion for what I love music is in my heart.

Thank you to all who believe in me and MOST OF ALL my amazing Mentor thank you Sir for encouraging me to NEVER GIVE UP it all takes time and practice.

My mixing & mastering techniques have been learned from Youtube tutorials & experimenting with Logic Pro X.   I love the creativity and flexibility music production - a continual learning journey  of #passion #persistence #perspiration #patience
 
Having begun her musical journey at the young age of five with the piano accordion – an instrument initially more of an expectation than a choice, yet one for which she now holds deep gratitude – Heidi-Marie eventually transitioned into the captivating world of electronic music production a few years ago. This discovery led to the gentle retirement of her accordion, making space for her true passion: composing, producing, and sharing her sonic creations with the world. For Heidi-Marie, music is not just a pastime but a lifelong dedication, a constant until her final days.
