Bloom.

Something a little different. 

This song is for a special human, Tay, who I am eternally grateful for.

Additional info:

- Composition and all instruments played by yours truly, as always
- Strings, violin and piano programmed midi

Theory for anyone who cares:

- Cminor7 for the verse
- Chorus is in D# major
- Second verse I decided to shift to Fminor which feels uplifting, but familiar - with the same melody shifted up
 - Bringing it back to D# major for the final chorus  
- Guitar and piano lines at 3.48 outline the chord progression in the chorus

Bloom

‘A Gateway’ is the first of nine songs from the Songs from the Other Room album, dedicated to the hypnagogic state. It evokes the peculiar realm between sleep and wakefulness, where reality and dreams intertwine. The vocals are gibberish, reminiscent of the way words emerge and blur in our minds as sleep gradually takes over. Yet, they convey an aching beauty, intertwined with warped field recordings.

While far from a traditional pop song, A Gateway weaves through odd, synergistic passages, seamlessly transitioning from pastoral folk to trance and pop.

I wrote this song when I was 20 and listening to guys like Jason Becker a lot. In fact, it was one of the first instrumental tunes I composed. A sloppy recording was made at the time, but I always wanted to do it properly one day. Well, here we are, 27 (!) years later. And I STILL find it difficult to play, haha. The 40-second sweep picking section in particular is a struggle. This tune used to have a different title, but it is now called Late To The Party. Appropriate because on the one hand the heyday of this kind of over the top guitar playing is long behind us (except for enthusiasts ;)) and on the other hand because it took so long for me to re-record it. Anyway, hope you enjoy this old skool melodic shredtune! Video: https://youtu.be/9NmLMhOnbI4

Stuff I used for this recording (you're gonna laugh):

- shitty Acer laptop;
- cheap LTD bass;
- Ibanez RG320 with Bill Lawrence and DiMarzio PAF pro pickups;
- Ibanez RG565 Genesis with DiMarzio Tone Zone and Air Norton S pickups
- PreSonus Studio One 6 DAW
- PreSonus AudioBox iTwo interface
- Ibanez Tube Screamer mini
- Devine PRO 4000 headphones

I plugged the guitars straight into the interface and used all the standard Presonus plugins, like Ampire for the guitars and Impact for the drums. I spiced up the leadtone with the tubescreamer. That's it! Mixed entirely on headphones btw, but passed the cartest gloriously ;)

Chopin’s Revenge – A Suite of Four Virtuosic Piano Solos by Tom Connell

A tribute to the master himself, Chopin’s Revenge is a dazzling suite of four solo piano pieces, each infused with the spirit of Chopin’s virtuosity while pushing boundaries into new expressive territories. Featuring breathtaking arpeggios, delicate flourishes, and masterful contrasts of light and shade, these compositions showcase technical brilliance while weaving in moments of beautiful, dissonant impressionist jazz harmonies.

The first piece in the series, Chopin’s Revenge I: "Under the Hammer", sets the tone with its electrifying energy and intricate passagework, capturing both the elegance and raw intensity of the piano.

More to come—immerse yourself in the world of Chopin’s Revenge!

PREVIOUS BIO:

I'm a guitarist and wanna be composer / songwriter- from Perth, Western Australia. I'm currently releasing a bunch of solo material as I have a backlog of older demos and also a new creative streak (thanks life). 

If you enjoy the following you might enjoy some of my work:

Devin Townsend, Porcupine Tree, Ghost, Metallica, Tool, Lofi, game and movie soundtracks, bots, retrofuturism, Eastern philosophy and spirituality, conspiracies (and truths) combined with unique storytelling, riffs or the matrix ...You might like what i put out.

Guess you could say it's prog rock, metal, atmospheric soundscapes, curated samples, synth melodies, stoner rock vibes and storytelling elements like samples and all that good stuff.  But a few killer solos in there too - and riffs. I like riffs....

You won't just see the final, polished product either. I'll release demos, phone memos, whatever - Along with the actual end result so you can take part in this musical journey with me.

That's enough about me. Enjoy the music, let me know what you like/don't like, and say hi over on my socials. Give some love to Code Red too while you're at it. Awesome local band that I miss playing in heaps. Check them out on Spotify or catch one of their upcoming shows here in Perth.

This is the principal soundcloud channel for original one-man music by gd&themultitracks.  Mainly instrumental, the music was home-recorded in stroud, england using hardware synths & instruments and Audacity community software for editing and mixing the individual multitracks.  I've had great enjoyment in making (& listening to!) the music, but any plays or feedback would be much appreciated. 
The music spans a wide range of sounds & genre.  I've put a selection of tracks into playlists which cover much of the music:  rock, melodic rock, soft guitar, ambient, electronica, soundtrack, jazz & blues..
enjoy your music ... just play on!

Skating on the thin ice of post-everything sound...

Middle aged and self taught. Started playing at the age of 5, with a "halt" between 19 and 45, but found the priceless love of sound again. In early days I played a bit in theater settings. Love to "mould" music rather than "compose". Quite ok with making music as an individual and therapeutic activity, but if you are a cellist, viola-player, flutist, experimental vocalist or "field recorder" - please reach out :-).

Frédéric Chopin (1810–1849)
Frédéric François Chopin was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of the Romantic era, widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of piano music. Born on March 1, 1810, in Żelazowa Wola, Poland, Chopin showed prodigious talent from an early age, performing in Warsaw's salons by the age of seven.

At the age of 20, Chopin left Poland, eventually settling in Paris, which became his creative home. Despite his fragile health, he became a central figure in the city's vibrant artistic circles, forming lasting relationships with luminaries like Franz Liszt, George Sand (his lover and muse), and other leading artists of the time.

Chopin's compositions are celebrated for their lyrical beauty, innovative harmonies, and technical brilliance. His works for solo piano include 21 nocturnes, 24 preludes, 27 études, 4 ballades, and 2 piano concertos, as well as numerous waltzes, polonaises, and mazurkas that reflect his deep connection to Polish folk music. His Études, in particular, revolutionized piano technique and remain a cornerstone of the instrument’s repertoire.

A deeply expressive and introspective artist, Chopin’s music bridges the gap between classical traditions and the emotive Romantic spirit. His compositions are characterized by a delicate balance of virtuosity and poetic depth, earning him the nickname "the poet of the piano."

Chopin's health deteriorated in his later years due to tuberculosis, and he passed away on October 17, 1849, at the age of 39. His legacy endures, influencing generations of composers and pianists. Today, his works remain beloved by audiences worldwide, a tribute to his unparalleled contribution to classical music.
