I didn’t have a lot of time today so I went off the metronome and just looped what felt right on my looping pedal. Played a bit with some chromatic elements just to break myself out of the blues a bit: Jan 7.mp3

A shorty today…actually finishing up a sketch I did a few years ago in a hotel room on a business trip in GarageBand.

I gotta remember to look at the prompts!

Just in time for the deadline! Let’s make those synths sing, perfect BPM for a Trance song <3

MC505 on bass and beats
Modal Craftsynth on 2nd bass
Roland System 1M/Behringer JT4000 on leads
Behringer Deepmind 12 on second leads
Roland XV3080/Sonicware Liven Evoke on mid-part

Not really satisfied with this end mix but I do love how the jam itself worked out as I had in mind. Samples taken from the amazing game Alan Wake (First level).

This track is partly inspired by the mood and phrase from the prompt.

I used random snippets of audio from ‘Les Feuilles Mortes’ sung by Yves Montand, which was adapted in English as ‘Autumn Leaves’. The most recognisable part of the tune just about makes an appearance at the end.

I passed the audio through my Befaco Oneiroi, then chopped up and rearranged the results. If I had more time, I’d find some higher frequency material to round it out a bit.

FYI, the prompts are only there if you want to use them, or need a source of inspiration.

I love the contrast between the lush pads and all of the little glitchy ear candy. It’s unique and vibey!

Day 7 composition - “Autumn Whispers”. Another piano piece, but this time I added my, new to me, Soma Terra synth, along with an ambient recording of falling leaves in the wind, for a melancholic and ethereal sound. It gave me the feeling of when Autumn starts to transition to Winter.

Mood: Ethereal · BPM: 138 · Key: C Minor · Color: Prussian Blue ·
Phrase: “Leaves spiraling in autumn wind”.

Left the house at 7am today, and got back at only 11:10pm. I was exhausted, but I wanted to do something. So here’s my interpretation of “Ethereal”, @138BPM, in C minor:

There is plenty of help on the Teensy forum. They are nice there too.

Lovely soundscape Andy. Good old Sunrizer, now that’s a blast from the past!

Very dramatic end to the leaves…
