“Father” - melodic GarageBand IOS track, based on some Piano Motifs.

Whilst Lucy has the week off, here’s an instrumental created this weekend, dedicated to my Dad, who I miss more each year, since he died 20 years ago.

Started off with generating G major Piano Motifs, spent an hour and saved the best 15 and brought them into GarageBand IOS. Then divided them into what I thought would be verse, chorus, and middle/end - and the picked a favourite from each one

Then spent time creating some leads and pad/strings and getting the structure right. Even though it’s a major chord tune, the verse is quite melancholic, but the end is more uplifting.

I’ve left chord/melody space for doing a vocal on this track, but I thought I’d release it as I think as an instrumental it stands up ok.

The video is basic STAELLA.

Hope you enjoy

  • Beautiful composition. It definitely stands on it’s own. I didn’t find it to be melancholic at all. Very uplifting and hopeful.

  • A very lovely arrangement. I think you did a great job choosing motifs and finding the right voices for the leads and pads.
    I understand about missing your Dad. I'm sure yours would be proud of this tribute.

  • I agree with @Paulieworld that this sounds quite uplifting rather than melancholic. I like the arrangement and the melodies. It all fits together very well.
    I miss my father too. He died on my birthday a few years ago now but it is always a day of mixed emotions now.

  • Now we only need a mother and maybe a daughter song to complete the family :smile: Great tune!

    Nice, very folksy but, maybe you should have started your own thread for it as this one is for matdun25848834's creation. :D

    True...done!

  • thanks all for the comments, much appreciated. The melancholic bit I was referring to was the first part of solo piano, but yes it does uplift after that :)

  • Sounds great! And a perfect fit musically. I lost my grandma (who raised me) in 2021, and you’re right, I miss her more and more all the time. My condolences 🤝

  • Yes I’m on the uplifting side… very nice 😊

  • I missed this one! Great arrangement and instrumentation. Visuals are cool.

  • thank you all for the comments, much appreciated.
