They Haven't Invented Music Yet

Microcosm6

Witnessing the fascinating conjunction of Venus and Jupiter from my hostel window prompted me to revisit one of my early attempts at writing music for solo MIDI electronics. 

"Celestial Dance", composed in May 2019, is in three parts, each following the other attacca, without pause. The harmonic structure of the work is derived from the clash (conjunction!) of two diminished seventh chords, with their root notes a semitone apart. Pierre Boulez had used such a chord in Sur Incises (and Incises)  which piqued my interest in its sonority. The instrumentation albeit MIDI oriented (which allowed me to push the instrumental performance to superhuman virtuosity) is made up of the instruments Boulez used in Sur Incises - with the addition of an electronic piano and solo strings.

Disquiet Junto Project 0621: The Leftovers
The Assignment: Use recently discarded material to make something new.

I was really excited by this prompt and then had such a bumpy time moving through it. Lots of starts and stops, lots of frustration. But ultimately I found my way to something cozy and warm (like any good leftovers). 

I was inspired by my love for blooper reels and behind the scenes content. I've been working on a really special audio storytelling/concept album project about space colonization for a long time now and I find it comforting and joyful to listen back to the chatter between takes, the bits we ultimately cut out, and the unruly sounds that happen outside of the final edits. I like hearing our unscripted personalities, thought processes, and mistakes. 

So for this piece I just used that stuff paired with a good amount of mic adjustment sounds and a sweet, simple melody from one of many abandoned songwriting attempts.

I decided to try something a little ravey today. I bounced a chord to audio so I could pitch it up and down in the way folk did 'back in the day' and fiddled around with some sub bass and time-stretched vocal samples. I then chopped up a little amen break which, surprisingly I don't think I'd done before. I even chucked in a little attempt at creating a spinback by adding a delay to the beat and then rapidly changing the delay time.

Dream Chaser (Jamuary Day 22)

gone (demo version)

I'm a musician/song-writer and audio storyteller. I created the podcast A Therapist Walks Into a Bar and an experimental radio show called Shadowtime on BFF.fm. I've also released a couple of albums/eps as Lily Sloane. I do creative sound design and compose music for audio projects and sometimes videos. In addition to making original themes and soundtracks for podcasts, I've also licensed some of my existing music. Get in touch if you're interested.
