// IPG1 and Lillithe --- I Am KEEPING SCORES //

this was going to be a disco type song, like love is in the air, but it did not sound right with a dance beat, so stripped out all of that, added a 12 str and toned down the keyboard. the vocals will prolly get a do over next week

You don’t have to smile at me when you pass me on the street
You don’t have to cross against the light so we might ‘accidentally’ meet
You don’t have to ask my friends if i still live alone
Or tell my folks you said to say hello
You don’t have to be so kind

You don’t have to come up to my table in a restaurant
And put your hand on top of mine and act so familiar while we talk
You don’t have to find any reason to spend time with me
Or send me little notes I’ll always keep
it’s gonna make me lose my mind

I’ll only fall in love
I’ll only think of you
I’ll only lie awake and wonder, if you’re thinking of me too
I’ll only act a fool
And I’ll want to marry you
It’s all cause of you
You’re too good to be true
I’ll just fall in love

Please don’t ever let me hold you close beneath the starry skies
Pde give me any reason to look deep into your eyes
And if i should ever start to wonder what my life would be
If you were always next to me  I’ll blame you, 
For making me feel this way

I'll Only Fall In Love

I was working on updating this and it suddenly struck me that it's sorta spooky sounding and it's Halloween time. Perfect.

Circa 2007 I began poking around with synth sounds in GarageBand. It was fun to play with the settings to see what new sounds I could contrive. This is the result of one of those adventures. I recently opened the file in Logic and tweaked it to match where I'm at presently in my musical journey.

(This tune is downloadable.)

I compose in MIDI, using Logic Pro and sound libraries from EastWest. This tune has a lot of personally tweaked synth sounds.

Novel Conservation (18 Years Later)

You woke yourself today with a sadistic glow 
With the cruelest of intentions that nobody can know 
When the lights go out, the dirty deeds will commence 
And the fight for survival will begin again 

Bring your torch, set the fire 
All the lies you’ve conspired 
No way back from the choice that you made 
I’ve seen what you are 
You can hide it no more 
All I want is to survive the day 

Gave me some false hope in the dark 
But I still know what you are 
And now I can’t forget the harm
The bloody mess that you’ve caused 
You sucked the blood from me 
And tried to watch me drown 
In a cave, we’ll decay
There’s no good to be found 

The glowworm, it squirmed 
And then I watched it turn
And then I watched it turn…

Glowworm

A deep and dark song about sorrow and sadness. Initially written on piano, I decided to add dissonances and abstract soundscapes. I am very happy that Michael leaned into the dark theme and wrote sparse lyrics with a lot of meaning in between the words.

==== LYRICS ====

I'm on my own
Here alone
Almost at the bottom
How did we fail?

Did we change?
How are you?
Because I found
Something inside
Something close to us

It's only some words
Calling out 
Calling to me
From our yesterdays

Deep inside 
We knew it from the start
A love too good
To be true
    
Help me
Help me understand
This new land
Desolate and blue

In the end
It's always been us
You and me
On our own journey

To a new place
It's only some words
Calling to me
From our yesterdays

Deep inside 
We knew it from the start
A love too good
To be true

Calling To Me

Lyrics:

Sometimes we forget to say thank you
To those who deserve it the most
Some shine in the dark
And cares for our wounded hearts

Chorus:
I just want to say thank you
I am grateful, I am touched
All the good things you did for me
You are someone I want to be

Some gives it all away
With a big smile on their face
Some have a heart made of gold
Some are warm when its cold

Chorus..

Chorus..

Sometimes we don't know 
What we have until its gone
If only we had seen the good
And said thank you when we should

Chorus...

I just want to say thank you
I am grateful, I am touched
All the good things you did for me
You are someone I want to be..

Thank You!

Beyond Laniakea and the Supercluster there lies The Great Wall...apparently its only 10,000,000 light years across...  I think I'm running out of space...
I asked chatgtp how long it would take to travel that far in the fastest human built machine and it came up with this:

The fastest human-built machine so far is NASA's Parker Solar Probe, which reaches speeds of about 430,000 miles per hour (700,000 km/h) when slingshotting around the Sun.

Let's break it down:

Distance: 10 million light-years = 5.88 x 10¹⁹ miles
Speed: 430,000 miles per hour
Time: Distance ÷ Speed
Time = 1.37 x 10¹⁴ hours
= 15.6 billion years

So it would take the Parker Solar Probe roughly 15.6 billion years to travel 10 million light-years, assuming it could maintain that speed (which it can't).

That's longer than the current age of the universe (around 13.8 billion years).

My head hurts...

The Great Wall

Lyrics and Vocals by me
Music made in Garageband
(I added some echo on my main voice for more effect)
A simple and a little weird song about self doubt, and finding the power :)

Lyrics:

Please, don't say I'm weak
That I am small
That I will never be able to climb up
and reach the top
That I will always be the one
Lying on the ground, looking up....

Chorus
I'm gonna find my power
I will climb,I will fight
I'm gonna reach the top
I will climb ,I will fight
I'm gonna use my power
I will climb, I will fight
I'm gonna reach the top
I will climb, I will fight

Please, don't say I'm grey
That I'm invisible
and never will be able to be mixed
Or to be fixed
That I will always be the one
Left colorless, lying on the ground..

Chorus...

Chorus....

My Method of Composing and Producing

I'm sharing my method of composing and producing music recordings in case other composer-producers like me might find ideas worth exploring in their own work. I use this method for Classical, Avant-Pop or Neo-Folk Instrumental genres, not for Ambient and Soundscape pieces. Non-composers might find this explanation interesting, but having a bit of music theory background will definitely help. I consider myself a humble learner when it comes to music theory. 

I owe a debt of gratitude to British musician and educator Gareth Green, whose Music Matters online courses and free YouTube lessons have taught me so much over the past few years. Thanks to his instruction, I’ve moved from struggling to compose music by trial and error to something more enjoyable and productive. The knowledge I've gained has taken my work in new and expanding directions. As the saying goes, “Theory is not a cage — it’s a map. It doesn’t make the journey for you, but it keeps you from getting lost.” 

When I start a new piece, I begin by choosing a key, and picking a scale drawn from one of these sources:
 
1) Western Tonal / Functional Harmony - major or minor chords I II III IV V VI VII
2) Modal Harmony - Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, etc.
3) Slonimsky's "Thesaurus of Scales and Melodic Patterns" 
4) Messiaen’s "Seven Modes of Limited Transposition" 

For many pieces, I also decide on a progression, one as a simple as I IV V, or something more elaborate.  

Next I create a "scales and progressions" piano track in my DAW (digital audio workstation software) and enter the chords I to VII in my chosen key. These harmonized scales serve as a basis for writing multipart harmonies and finding pivot chords for key modulations. 

At the start, I know what instruments I want to use, making adjustments along the way. I tend to write chord parts first, then melodies created through a mix of improvisation and direct input in the DAW. Sometimes I start with a melody.

I develop melodies and variations of a phrase by some combination of: a) passing it from one instrument to another, transposing it by an interval that sounds pleasing, b) reversing it, c) inverting it around the tonic (first) note of the scale. These are well-known methods. 

After completing a section, I choose another scale and maybe a new key and repeat the process until I have a draft of the entire piece. Then I export a recording and listen to it “offline”, take notes of errors and new ideas, and incorporate them back into the piece. Often this “compose / listen / compose” cycle is repeated many times. These iterative cycles include adding new ideas, polishing transitions between sections, changing the arrangement, and incorporating expressive details like accents, and articulations (staccato, sustain, portato etc.). I’m often working several different pieces at once. 

Last is mixing and mastering: balancing the loudness between instruments and adjusting elements like reverb, compression, and equalization. I tend to mix as I compose, even though many producers frown on that approach. I find mixing as I go helps me envision the completed piece and make adjustments to the choice of instruments; it self-inspires me when the piece is starting to sound good.  At the end I do a final mix, but as the saying goes, “A mix is never finished — it’s surrendered.”

In the end, this method gives me a basis for exploration and creativity and helps me stay focused. The goal is always to make a piece of music that feels expressive, cohesive, and emotionally resonant.

Suite For Woodwinds and Percussion No. 1

Bad things don't break close to home, close the blinds
Turn the T.V. on, sleep on the couch
Freaks still rumble, stuff going down 'neath my nose

There was a shooting at the park
After dark anything can happen
Police can't be everywhere at once

Still pretty sure nothing gonna break, avoid the news
At every cost, anything I don't know aint gonna hurt me
Anything I don't know I don't need to know

Lawless society is a no-mans-land
Destroy everything
Sit and watch as all this play on the screen

A Shooting At The Park

Cast of characters:
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick four-string fretless bass, PRS semi hollow body electric guitar, seed idea
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums 
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 organ
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–  Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar and additio0nal mastering
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Squier Custom Telecaster electric guitar processed through a Line 6 interface to sound like a synth, mix, and production
Eclectic Collective -- composition
This song started around the New Year holiday, when Josh was playing around with a looper beat on his bass. He came up with the bass line and structure for it before turning it over the the rest of the Eclectic Collective to work with. 
  Ken was first up, giving the beat its due as a real drummer, and making it his own, expertly, as always. JJ was up next with his dynamic, lush organ, propping up the groove and adding sonic flavor throughout. Stephen came through after JJ with his foundatoinal, gritty, groovy guitar. It was sitting there ripe for a melody at this point, so Josh heard and added a melody vaguely inspired by the Simpson's theme and added it with his electric guitar. Tez wrapped the whole thing up with the exciting "synth" part you hear in the middle with his custom Tele, which he processes through a Line 6 interface.
  Once it was in the bag, Tez did the honors of producing and mixing it for us, and he did so exactly as we wanted it.
  This is an example of a song Josh started with a groove and set loose on the rest of the band. It is also a good example of what happens when we're all moving towards the same vision. We hope you enjoy hearing this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

TITLE FROM SUITS TO SCREENS: A POLITICAL SCENE
_________________________________________________
LYRICS: 

(Verse 1)
Back in the fifties suits ruled the land
Cold War shadows and a nuclear stand
The votes were counted on paper so clean
Dreams of democracy behind the sheen

(Verse 2)
The sixties roared with protest and cries
Marching for rights under wide-open skies
A new generation with fire in their feet
Changing the world from the ground to the street

(Chorus)
From suits to screens the story's been told
A world evolving both young and old
We shape the future with every new line
Political science through space and time

(Verse 3)
The seventies grooved but scandals would burn
Trust in the system was hard to return
Watergate whispers shook the grand halls
But still
The people answered democracy’s calls

(Bridge)
Eighties brought power suits shoulder pads high
Global connections and a Wall said goodbye
Technology crept in with promises bright
Politics shifted to digital might

(Verse 4)
Nineties dot-coms and a world on the brink
Globalization made everyone think
The wars were fought with pixels and words
Boundaries blurred like migrating birds

Globalization Reinforced That Time Changes Things
