Hello all! The above song is my initial stab at making virtual music! I'm a member of a certain online music production community, and this was my entry for an assignment called the, "Freedom through Limitation" challenge. Challenging as it was, it asked that all participants to submit a song following a number of criteria including: having the song be 2-3 minutes long, only use the digital instruments provided, no using audio effects, change key in the song at least once, work nicely with a partner. I followed all the criteria, except for the last one because my partner was busy with more important life events; in other words, I worked alone on this. The main aim of the challenge was to help participants gain better musical composition skills. By completing the challenge over the course of methinks about 2 months, I learned much about composing and arranging a song, using automation to enhance a lead instrument, making milder and more intense drum parts, arranging a song in an ABCAB pattern, writing spoopy chord progressions, underpinning a song with an exciting bassline, using additive compositional techniques, building and diminishing audible energy. Once the submissions were submitted, a poll was created to vote on who made the best song; methinks each person was allowed to vote for their top three favorite submissions. When the voting period ended, I ended up tying for 2nd place out of methinks around 10 distinct teams! I'm thankful to have taken part in this educational, yet fun project!

This track got meditative with the fluxing and therefore grew in length. Time becomes a slippery element when working in the quantum flux realm, where the time space membrane grows thin.

The Final Flux Around

Jamnuary 2024 - Day 1 Jamn

Jamnuary+24 : Day #01
a jamn made in about 15min (long day at work)

Day#01 - D - 115 bpm

Hot Jamn That Won't Grow Cold

Strange Music
That describes day 2 of Jamnuary 2025 for the Seed to Stage songwriting challenge.
I decided to use a sort of strange chord progression on acoustic guitar as the basis for this piece and built other layers up around that as a quick idea.

Cтранные Музыка - Jamnuary 2mth

Today I chose to start with a beat and make layers of bass sounds and use arps to make a B part. I really like some of the textures in this and it brought me joy to make it!

Afterglow - Jamnuary 4rst


When it gets cold, and you're falling behind in jamning, you invite your reggae band to jamn practice. This was a learning experience in collaboratively deciding what parts and sounds should be used.
There's more reggae/dub experiments coming from that direction, so I'll be sure to drop a link sometime for those who enjoy more of this style!

Dub Zero Weather - Jamnuary 6st

Winter has had it's fair share of blues... Time to shake them off and step into a house, take off the shoes, and enter rave mode!

Across The Snowy White - Jamnuary 7th

My next Jamnuary, which is not the end in the road to my Spring Show announcements and commencement of the ON season, but simply my final entry into the group challenge to jamn one song idea out each day for two weeks in a row, with grace, self-love, and a little leeway written in.
I fell short of my goals for myself, but I did create quite a few jamns, and the golden takeaway, afterall, remains that I have some very cool tunes to develop into songs.
They definitely exhibit growth from the previous years' Jamnuarys. 
Thanks for listening and please stay tuned next week for more uploads as the process continues!!!
