Aurora Borealis

Example what grooves incrementally developed with Synfire may sound like. The variety of styles and rhythms is vast. This is but one simple two-chords possibility.

Groove Development

Just one or two phrases can get an entire song started from scratch. This example takes two phrases from the Example Piano library (The Pale Rider, Entangled Lines), splits them by symbol type and uses the resulting lines for different instruments.

Listen to the generated phrases first, then a few parts that were arranged based on them.

Arranging With Phrases

Don't you feel like right now is the
Time for a reckoning with the sickening
Old men that are keeping us hostage and angry
I'm not up for an apocalypse in waiting
So long overdue, I will no longer take it

Pinch me, I'm dreaming
I used to be dead but now I'm  
Breathing and feeling
Taking back the world from humanity

Don't you feel like we are at the dawn of a
Quickening hefty thickening insurgence of a 
Rising and brave generation
Will you come and join the celebration
So long overdue, we will finally make it

Pinch me, I'm dreaming
I used to be dead but now I'm  
Breathing and feeling
Taking back the world from humanity

Taking Back The World (Pinch Me)

A variant created from the original arrangement within an hour with Synfire Pro.

Lyrics:

Don't you feel like right now is the
Time for a reckoning with the sickening
Old men that are keeping us hostage and angry
I'm not up for an apocalypse in waiting
So long overdue, I will no longer take it

Pinch me, I'm dreaming
I used to be dead but now I'm 
Breathing and feeling
Taking back the world from humanity

Don't you feel like we are at the dawn of a
Quickening hefty thickening insurgence of a 
Rising and brave generation
Will you come and join the celebration
So long overdue, we will finally make it

Pinch me, I'm dreaming
I used to be dead but now I'm 
Breathing and feeling
Taking back the world from humanity

Taking Back The World (Piano Version)

Cinematic build-up with piano, brass and hybrid instruments. Entirely composed with Synfire Pro 2.

Leaving Orbit City

Prototyped with Synfire, playing and capturing Snippets in real-time.

Snippets In Space

We werged two tracks into one ("Aurora Borealis" and "Leaving Orbit City") using the container import feature of Synfire Pro. A mesmerizing texture of under-the-surface melodies. Each time you listen. you may choose to follow a different one and will still never know them all.

Aurora Over Orbit City

On the seventh day, they discovered something underground that looked like a giant clockwork. Shimmering in the dim light of a deep shaft, it seemed to be made of unknown materials. It looked like complex technology from a time long past. When Carly shined her flashlight on it, a small circular hatch opened, revealing a translucent sphere that began to rotate. Inside, flickering rays of faint light revealed scenes of an apparently long-lost civilization before the stunned team's eyes.

Haze

Cinematic opening for a dystopian adventure on a frozen planet. Composed with Synfire Pro. Method explained here: https://users.cognitone.com/node/9034

Survivors

Survivors in spring. Same piece rendered against different harmony only (compare the two)

Survivors (Spring)

Flora was playing hide-and-seek in the garden with her sister when she realized that their family had just left the house, leaving them alone. Knowing they could do anything without getting into trouble, at least not immediately, they chose to tear down the tree house and drown the neighbor's much hated dog, Hermann, in the pool. At last. What a great sunny day! The plan for the dog was canceled. When the dust settled however, Hermann ended up floating in the pool belly-up anyway.
