D-Ophiuchus

[Rejected submission to Arcaea Song Contest - Coalescence]

Implicitly, Sestina knew it.
The answer was simple, really:
The storm forming around her was not natural.

No, it seemed to be created just for her…
The clouds above her seemed to suggest a path to follow, the faint daylight showing a trail…
Whoever this god was… they seemed to want to heed her request. 

No matter. She would do whatever she needed to be heard.
For a world in which she can finally be free and happy again…
She will meet this god, and she will find her answers. 


...Okay, let me use this as a soapbox now:
Yeah I did take a risk for this one, and looking back, am I happy about it?
...Well... kinda?
I mean, without this, Critical Stage would just not exist
and that's definitely up there in the tracks I like the most personally.
But, yeah. Honestly, I could have done better, but what's done is done.
Don't worry, there will be more, it's just what I'm working on is taking a while and I haven't had as much time as I would have liked...
But it is coming together, more or less.

Also, I have no plans for this track, if I'm being honest, so take the open license if you'd like-

BPM: 124-220 (in 4/4 and 5/4)

[Rejected ASC#4] An Empty Heart

In Memoriam for Solo Grand Piano - Extract

James writes - "I heard a performance of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 4 in E-Flat Major, Op.7 ... I was taken with the heart wrenching opening few bars of the second movement, Largo con gran espressione, which has stuck with me to this day."

The piece extracts fragments from the first few bars of music from the Beethoven and are re-written in new ways to create eighteen new fragments. Three of these fragments are recorded live into megaphones which are then looped to form an homogenous backwash. It is then left up to the performer to improvise in-the-moment with the other 15 fragments, which can be played in any order and repeated as many times as desired.

🎼 Gliptopalinomia is a cycle of piano miniatures in which I present all the fundamental elements of my System of Periodic Constructions. Each part is based on periodic pitch material derived from a row of alternating intervals. The selection of intervals, combined with mostly cyclic rhythms, defines the unique timbre and texture of each miniature.

🔹 Gliptopalinomia 7.2, 2.7, …
Built solely on the perfect fifth (7 semitones) and the major second (2 semitones), this piece has a bright, glossy sound of repeated phrases – like an iridescent liquid rapidly shifting shape in a looped motion.

🔹 Gliptopalinomia 7.1, 1.7, 3.5, 5.3, …
A denser row of intervals: perfect fifth and minor second; minor third and perfect fourth – resulting in a shadowy, blurred sound. A recurring motif of a rapidly repeated chord (in distant registers: high-low-high or low-high-low) creates a jagged, dramatic texture and a sense of virtuosity and elasticity.

🔹 Gliptopalinomia 10.1, 1.10, …
Only two intervals: the minor seventh and the minor second. Sparse, transparent, and delicate – this miniature sounds like a few raindrops quietly falling on a windowsill after a storm.

🔹 Gliptopalinomia 6.3, 3.6, 5.4, 4.5, …
A take on the musical perpetuum mobile. The left hand plays a fast piano part, while the right hand performs electronically processed Rhodes sounds via a MIDI keyboard. The pianist repeats the entire piece three times; during this time, the electronic part shifts down a quarter-tone, creating audible interference between the hands.

🎧 Gliptopalinomia – the title is derived from three Greek words:
	•	glipto (glyptós, glyphē) – sculpture, engraving;
	•	palin- (pálin) – again, against, back;
	•	-nomia (nomós) – skill, art, law, or field of study.

The entire cycle is a sonic sculpture engraved in my musical matter – a result of nearly two decades of work. Each part is a study of a fragment of the System of Periodic Constructions, while the whole cycle demonstrates its modus operandi.

🎓 Dedicated to Prof. Grażyna Pstrokońska-Nawratil. The first letters of her name and surname inspired the initials of the three Greek words forming the title – G, P, and N.

voice memos recording May 29, 2025, piano over the scott.  Songs sometimes sound the same, the daws sound robotic, even remixing this sounded like a dumpster fire.  Writing songs over the guitar is more fluid, more fun, moreover frustrating.  I have about 8 songs now or so.  Some covers alongside them.  this represents none of them.

Night kitchen composer: experimental/noise/piano with half-baked classical education, rosé in hand.

Based in Lausanne, Switzerland. 
Born and spent her childfood in Hokkaido;North island of Japan and grew up in Tokyo.

Kaori unfolds a sonic tangle in which she orchestrates piano compositions, field recordings, and radio waves to crush everything with rhythmic, randomly. The result is a multi-sensory journey that twerks between voltaic dreaminess and slow-mo settling of scores.
