I like this one. Volume down. Other Desert Cities default with Regen and Mix back a bit. It would make an appearance near the end to restate the opening piano. Just my two cents. We’re having chicken pot pie tonight. Gotta run.
That’s a very nice combo. The cello sounds particularly nice - which orchestra is it from?
The free Muse Strings Violoncellos in unison with the $30 Tina Guo Cello soloist to add a little more expression.
OK, I have to check out that Muse cello then!
The Descalator… a one-way ride:
This last one is just beautiful 🙏
I really like the descending bass that comes in around 1:12. It just works! Great track.
Descending bass is probably my favorite musical tool of them all…
This project follows the “Shepard’s Tone” idea where each part plays a descending scale (except for the
piano loop) until it hits the lower octave and then it starts again at the top to do it all over again. I staggered the string section entrances to end up outlining a F-Em-Dm-C chord progression that repeats. The “Shepard’s Tone” concept is like a musical barber’s pole that creates the illusion of music that just keeps descending infinitely.
We last discussed Shepard for a war movie. I think it was Dunkirk? You’re doing good stuff.
I downloaded a pitched “Slit Drum” Decent Sampler instrument from PianoBook.co.uk and made a very marimba like rhythm track in AUM. Then I import the audio into StaffPad and added flute, french horns, more marimba, a string orchestra and for the ending a vibraphone.
Yes. Christopher Nolan made Hans Zimmer (as I recall) insert Shepard Tones into his score.
It reminded me of Steven Spielberg making John Williams quote “When You Wish Upon a Star” into the mothership scene in “Close Encounters”.
More falling forward…
I found the pencil in the sofa…
I was wondering where it went.
Just to be clear: StaffPad is the only app that requires the use of an official Apple Pencil… no finger input for notes.
Forgive me for digging up an old song pages back, but I just find this work so very great and wanted to comment on how much I like it. Very moving piece. One I could listen to often. Staffpad instruments sound wonderful.
Thanks for calling it out… After a few months I loose the connection to the work. Probably because I tend to work so fast I don’t create deep memories of the process as compared to something where every note and line is so carefully assembled.
That one really was started with 7 midi performances added one at a time… then that MIDI was transferred into Staffpad and I used a lot of cut and paste processing. I’m going to look for the original Cubasis project to compare.
UPDATE: I located the Cubasis project and it’s several tracks of patterns/looped content and doesn’t work as a composition. But the looping material has more focus on interesting chord progression than most other workflow techniques. For solid compositions I still believe that solid construction can add a lot of gravitas. Rambling improv’s are fun to make but don’t seem to be as interesting for multiple listens.
I have another track that’s based purely on a Suggester chord progression that seems to stand up to multiple listens as a decent piece of music:
Oh I sure do like that, it’s a nice progression. Not familiar with that app, will check it out. I tried asking my Ai chat app to generate lush exotic unusual chord progressions and it thinks ii-V7-I is exotic.
I may pick up staffpad, and your thread deserves credit for the sale.
Suggester or Scalar 2 which also provides many preset chord progressions.
NOTE: The Suggester track was made in AUM using a @_ki Mozaic script to isolate the bass notes.
The bass app was “iFretless Bass” and all other sounds came from Roli Noise.
@Dav is right, as usual. Nice adult style track. Though I like the percussion tracks, too. You’re maturing. bro. Careful, not too fast.
Dude… I’m not maturing… I’m degrading. I like to think this passion for IOS music making helps slow the process of my brain unraveling.
FYI: StaffPad is on sale for $69 but you will need to own an official Apple Pencil. Maybe there will be a new pencil announced tomorrow to make the total cost go up along with a potentially more expensive iPad. So, saving $20 on Staffpad will only slightly impact the overall costs of staying current but having bit the bullet… with an M1 iPad I can highly recommend the benefits of having extra resources for IOS music production.
I like this very much! There was a song from West Side Story called Somewhere. Barbra Streisand did a version that was extremely good. Your arrangement and choice of instruments reminds me of that. If you haven’t heard it, it’s worth a few minutes to listen. Very nice work!
I’m not a big fan, but she really can sing!
Those Leonard Bernstein songs from West Side Story and frankly all the great dance music from the musical set a standard for me as a youth. We had the Original Cast Recording and I’d listen to it over and over.
Of course, Barbra singing any song with a story to tell is also off the scale… musical acting at its finest.
I listened to her 48 hour autobiography and the best stories are about her collaborations with Stephen Sondheim.
Would you mind if I downloaded Waiting Room Progression and “played” with it?
If you’re okay with that, can you tell me key and tempo.
Unfortunately, waiting rooms have had to be a source of inspiration for you lately. I’m hearing some crackling toward the beginning. Is it me or is it Memorex? Nice theme at 0:23 (where the cracking begins).
I like what you did with your Pencil on Polarity ✏️
Waiting Room… sounded a bit Out of Africa which can only be good 👌
I started working on Sketchbook III. This one is a bit different in that I’m adding a few of my own bits. I like how it’s coming along. Not sure when I’ll post. We have a few summer festivals in the next few weeks. We love to listen to country bands, drink beer, and play Bingo. Mostly Bingo!
I missed this message. I’ll see if I can find the source audio file and put it in the sharing folder.
Of course I like something with “Wax” in the title.😄
This feels like a dance. I really like the rhythm of it.
