The dorian mode is the most versatile mode there is, as it can be mysterious, funky, or even hopeful. All of those qualities can be heard through the entirety of this song.

Dorian

The sixth song of my major modes album is the most threatening and uneasing of them all, thanks to the phrygian mode being used. Does it make you remember a game boss theme? 

Phrygian

The last mode to get a track for itself is also the scariest, spookiest, fearfull one, the locrian mode. Don't run away, this track is indeed dark, but I opted for groovier type of pace for the song so it doesn't bore you to death lol.

Hi there! The Lost Hero’s Tale is an epic and emotional main theme that tells the story of a heroic, mythical figure who, despite their great deeds, has been tragically forgotten and left behind.

Let me know what you think! Does the piece convey the right emotions?

The Lost Hero's Tale - Emotional Fantasy Theme

This is a comparative study of chord progressions and scale paths in the Spectrum of Modes from Lydian to Phrygian. This is part of my final assignment for an ear training course I took in the first semester of 2025. I play the guitar, the bass, and sing the solfege. The drum loop was created from "Jazz Drum Metronome for ALL Instruments 115 BPM | Medium Slow Swing | Famous Jazz Standards " by InnerClock via YouTube.

The Arghul is an ancient double-pipe woodwind instrument from Egypt and the Levant, dating back thousands of years.
It combines a melody pipe with a longer drone pipe, producing a raw, layered sound rich in microtonal nuances.
Traditionally used in folk and ceremonial music, it remains a rare link between Middle Eastern heritage and modern experimentation.

Arghul Solo (Classical Music reload)

(ve/ver/vers)
I am a concert (classical-style) composer. Most of my work focuses on the beauty of the strangest parts of the natural world. I also do film, audiobook, and video game soundtracks.

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available, human or machine, as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.

Hi there!! I'm a composer for video games, animation, and film, dedicated to bringing people's stories to life through music! I love collaborating with passionate creators and elevating their projects with impactful, moving soundtracks. 

I'm here to share some of my work— I hope you enjoy it :)

Welcome to my SoundCloud page. My tracks are mostly highlighting my bass playing. I also play guitar, ukelele, some keyboard, sing, and whistle. Thanks for checking out the tunes.

I am a composer of intricately crafted melodies and a deft weaver of unconventional time signatures. If my creations strike you as peculiar, it is by design. I invite you to discover the allure of divergence and dissonance. Each piece is imbued with subtle nuances and layered meanings; a song, even through its instrumentation alone, should narrate a story.

Under the moniker Shuriken Miasma, I aim to conjure the essence of my music: frequencies that, like a swarm of delicate blades, pierce the vital spaces of your ear. Piercing highs and resonant lows serve as the conduits for this sonic experience. My compositions exploit the full breadth of stereo sound, enveloping listeners in the music’s world. Above all, I strive to evoke the emotions or circumstances that inspire each work.

My creative wellspring flows from my multifaceted life as a human, martial artist, scholar, and individual navigating Dissociative Identity Disorder. (Explore my YouTube channel via the link below for music videos, some featuring martial arts.)

My repertoire spans vivid depictions of sunlit strolls along sidewalks to painstaking efforts to encapsulate moments of psychosis stemming from my neurological condition; hallucinations and disquiet included. For instance, “Throw You in the River” unfolds as a musical dialogue, structured in a call-and-response format. My album Creatura Thema is an avant-garde exploration of hallucinatory experiences, yet it peels back multiple thematic layers, much like an onion. I wager you’ll find at least one track that burrows irresistibly into your mind.

I craft original compositions, each one a step in my ongoing quest for musical growth. With a decade of songwriting experience, augmented by years as an audio engineer, my self-taught music theory has evolved significantly. Around five years into my journey, I began experimenting with modal music.

Today, I predominantly compose in modal frameworks, challenging myself with self-imposed constraints that vary from track to track. At times, my work evokes nostalgia, reminiscent of a beloved video game. Other pieces teeter on the brink of melancholy—should that resonate, I recommend “SAd Cacter,” its title deliberately miscased to reflect its tonal key.

Beyond this platform, my music is available across all major streaming services. If you wish to license my work or cannot afford to purchase it but desire copies, please reach out directly.

I nearly overlooked mentioning that my music is a form of sonic Goetia; a ritualistic invocation through sound. Cheers!
Thank you for listening, and welcome to my world.  

                          Shuriken Miasma
