Wait For It
This little piece is an exercise in layering. It has 2 parts, A and B, arranged as ABA. The A part contains the melody, which repeats 3 times. Each iteration adds a layer. Each layer consists of 2 or more different instruments playing the same MIDI data. It increases in density until it hits part B, which is completely unrelated, but I liked the transition. Part B rambles on for about a minute then dissolves back into part A. Pretty simple.
Pure Piano, Ravenscroft, Korg Lisbon, Jubal Flute, Waldorf Nave, iFretless, Nambu, DRC, King of Digital, Mitosynth, Sugarbytes Factory, Korg iM1, and a few others. I'm at my desk at doing this from memory, so I might have missed a few.
Have a nice day

‘B’ is unrelated indeed… no shared DNA.
“A” has a soothing quality reminiscent of the Windham Hill new age era.
Closer to an AxA form…
I thought with a title like "Wait for it" a surprise was warranted. Love the sound design and the opening is really pretty.
Good point. Alternative title “Will Be Wild”. Generally after some chaos you don’t get a repeat of the
original state of affairs. I’m in the recovery process of a burst hot water pipe and we won’t ever get back to the start of this last month… lots of mold signs already. It’s always something you don’t know is just up ahead. “Waiting for the show to drop… on your head.”
Hey @McD! Definitely unrelated, but I liked it at the time. I’ll listen again in a few days. I’ve been in a rut for a few weeks and just sort of forced this one. The melody started out as some random notes poked into the piano roll and I worked around it.
Thanks for the Windam Hill comparison! They had some great music on that label, as I recall. I think I was pretty high at the time, though. But I digress…
This summer I promised myself I would start working with StaffPad. Maybe that will get some new things flowing. Thanks for listening. Hope things are going well for you both. Have a great day.
Hey Mac! I agree that a song called Wait For It should have something to wait for. I could have made this a lot more involved, but my wife had other plans for me. I’m not crazy about the ending. It just sort of… ends. Oh well, I’ll try harder on the next one. I love what you are doing with your latest video work. The imagery is amazing and really draws me in. Have a great weekend!
@Paulieworld - no criticism from me - you know I never work anything to a remotely complete final version. I just sketch and start with a new blank page tomorrow. The sketches often just beg for some serious editing and re-work but I don’t have that discipline. You tend to take all your ideas much farther towards a publishable state. You have a more disciplined set of work habits. The masters of “completed” works are @Lady_App_titude and @Daveypoo… just to cite 2 examples. There are many more with a more “professional” approach to using these apps to better purposes.
@McD Thank you for that! I really enjoyed those Sketchbooks. A casual observer would have been bored to tears watching me, but in my mind I was dancing! I still have a few left!
I hope you notice I invoked the names of 2 top creatives I admire to get them to hear your work and comment… It never hurts to tag someone and try and keep a thread from just rolling away into “that dark night.”
Nice title, idea “That Dark Night”. Almost as good as “Japanese Tin Drum Knock-offs”. (You had to be there).
I did notice that. Thank you!
I like that song title. I have something currently in limbo that would go well with it. It's one of my old Dylan Thomas inspired things. I just never finished it. Do you remember "Don't Go Gentle"?
Mind if I use it?
Liked A a lot, less so B 😊
@McD invoked 2 top creatives and got me instead.
He must be rubbing his lamp the wrong way 🧞♂️
Yeah… @Daveypoo and @Lady_App_titude tend to check in when they have their own work to share… they have excellent work habits and waste little time on chit-chat.
Chit-chat is my favorite part. I don’t get many opportunities to do that these days. I do “music” in order to hook up with like-minded creators. I vote for chit-chat!
I liked A best, too. B was a bit of a stretch, but sort of okay. In any case, I like chatting about it! I love to hear your thoughts.
I'm no master, I just have learned that completion important to me. But trust me - I have plenty of unfinished ideas, you just don't want to hear them because they suck. 😁
I dig the tune @Paulieworld - the tones are pleasing and it's got a nice relaxing vibe. The B part shifts the energy a bit, but keeps it in motion without the idea getting stale. Nice work!
I also have quite a few unfinished tracks. However, I still have about 200Gb of available space, so there's no rush to finish them soon. Thanks for listening, and the positive comments. Always appreciated. Have a great day!
