HEADACHE JOCKEY

"Morse the Raven Calls" is my 3rd exploration using Morse Code as a musical element - primarily rhythm. I wanted to paint a sonic picture of a raven's arrival – its flight, a dynamic dance of ups, downs, and curves as it maneuvers through a windstorm, with its piercing warning calls before disappearing into the distance.

I made the song using the unique Arabian Flute by Erik the Flutemaker. Crafted entirely from bamboo, its warm, resonant tones and two-octave range make it incredibly expressive. Tuned to itself rather than standard A440 - with a minor melodic scale, it's perfect for creating the kind of improvisational soundscapes in this song. This song was woven together from three tracks of the wood flute, brought to life with the help of Logic Pro and Valhalla DSP effects plugins.

I'm  interested in how this music resonates with you. What was your experience with "Morse the Raven Calls"? Please share your thoughts in the comments!

Living On Vibrating Emotions

Impertinent story of a bug playing MP3 instead of OGG.
Kind of a suite to my previous track, related in style and vibes...

OGG will replace MP3

"it speaks now it's dead" (excerpt) - track 7 from "Tracking Satyrs into Morse"

A juxtaposition of two presidential addresses, each speaking to/about the media and basically stating that the press needs to be (more) responsible in regards to what they release. However, one orator speaks in a rather eloquent fashion (basically saying, "I can't force you to do as I wish, but I can ask you") and directly to the news media, whereas the other speaks in a very basic and uncouth manner pandering to his base.

Combined with string quartet and other broadcasts, the piece creates an atmosphere as though the listener is periodically switching between several radio stations during an evening of listening. 

Throughout the piece the strings utilize augmented and diminished chords, arpeggios, and runs while also emphatically stating the following message:  
- .-. ..- -- .--. / .. ... / - .... . / . -. . -- -.-- / --- ..-. / - .... . / .--. . --- .--. .-.. . .-.-.-

MIA: Media Informs America

Music rooted in memory for decades💎🔟

Camila Agosto is a composer, interdisciplinary artist, and educator whose electroacoustic music examines how
we perceive sound and vibration, exploring their physiological, mental, and emotional impacts. In her work, Camila collaborates with
musicians, visual artists, choreographers, and instrument builders, seeking to uncover intersections across artistic fields. Her work
includes both fully notated and improvisational compositions emphasizing timbral and textural exploration. She aims to reveal the
sonic potentialities of acoustic instruments while highlighting the human element in live performance. Her projects encompass
acoustic and electroacoustic concert works, interdisciplinary collaborations with visual media and dance, installations, and fixed media
creations.

Camila was honored to be the youngest fellow to be accepted to the American Academy in Berlin and is a recipient of the Fall 2023 Berlin Prize and Deutsche Bank Fellowship in Music Composition from the Academy. Her music has been commissioned and performed by leading artists and featured by venues throughout the United States and abroad.

Everyone is say "Hey, Joe, drop music"
Well, I dropped music, here is my music

Winner of the 2022 American Prize in Music Composition - Instrumental Chamber Music (Fragile for Brass Quintet), Winner of the 2021 Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra Composition Competition (Second City Strut), twice the recipient of the Milwaukee Artist Resource Network's Music Award (2013 & 2016), and winner of Time Magazine's 2006 Person of the Year, Craig Peaslee's music has been described as bold, brash and unapologetic. Coming to the contemporary composing scene as a jazz performer and arranger, Craig’s compositions have a strong foundation in jazz music and continually find him searching for new ways to incorporate jazz into works for the classical concert music stage, as well as classical elements into jazz pieces. 

His works can be traditional, multi-faceted, dissonant, genre-bending and have been known to directly confront social and political issues in order to bring attention to such topics as well as get listeners to critically think and discuss the challenges facing the world we live in.  Craig's recent compositions include the four movement suite for brass quintet Fragile (2021), Second City Strut (2019) for orchestra, and The Death of a Nation (2018) for string quartet and prerecorded media.
 
Recent performances of his works and arrangements have been by the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra, Frost School of Music's Concert Jazz Band, Julius Quartet, Northern Illinois University Graduate Brass Quintet, Boston's Arcadian Winds, the Flight 584 Big Band from Los Angeles, Extra Crispy Brass Band and The Brew City Big Band of Milwaukee, and The Moonlighter's Orchestra. He was included on a recent compilation album Windswept (Navona Records) featuring the Arcadian Winds woodwind quintet.
​
As a disabled veteran, Craig enjoys working with veterans organizations to bring music to veterans and exposing veterans to music outside the realm of what can easily be found on commercial radio stations, in movies, and television shows.
​
Having been raised in a rural village, Craig is impassioned about being able to present new music to smaller communities and areas that do not normally get the opportunity to attend presentations of new and contemporary music. For these reasons, Craig enjoys writing music that is accessible while also sounding new and invigorating.
