Two new pieces today. Both electronica dance, and completely dissimilar.

• Shiny Tech
  
• In a Heartbeat

I wrote these both a possible sketches for an upcoming film I’m scoring. Shiny Tech is a full-bore happy peppy dance/techno piece. Were it a real techno piece – it would probably be three times longer than it is. The themes are introduced and killed off as quickly as possible to allow for fast development. I recommend!
In a Heartbeat, on the other hand is a nasty piece of music. It is hardcore ugly and produced to be very very loud. By “nasty”, I don’t mean it is bad. It is gritty and grating… the kind of things the kids are into these days. This piece has quite an effect on my affect. After about 4 hours of working on various blips and screams – I was downright angry.
Yes, music can make me angry. This is not a surprise, but it does make one lose perspective. I wasn’t quite sure if it was good – or if it just made me angry because it was not good. I’m pretty sure there will be another version of this piece… there is just something about the structure that is unbalanced right now. Of course, that may just add to the anger – so maybe it is a good thing. We’ll see.
Also, I found out that quite a few people subscribe to the RSS feed on this site… Thanks, everyone – keep the feedback coming!

I scattered a few new entries around the site, but most are in the Drama section. They range from minutes’ long fight sequences to just a few seconds’ worth of finishing touches.
We Got Trouble, Power Restored, Time Passes, Ambush, Action, Quiet Panic.
A few of these are from audio dramas, a few from movie scores, and one is from a stage play scene change (Time Passes).

Here’s a few projects that have been on my desktop way too long.

• Four Beers’ Polka
  
• Sax, Rock, and Roll
  
• Cool, Hard Facts
  
• 80’s Action
  

That’s one polka down, about 3 still left to be finished. As for the rock and pop tunes… I don’t often finish them because I rarely like them. The exceptions here are that I actually finished them, and I like one of them. I’ll leave it up to the listener to figure out which…

A friend of mine (Mr. Craig Knitt) shared with me an idea for a film that I was pretty excited about, so I started doing a soundtrack for it blind. These are the first two pieces. Who knows if they’ll make the cut…

• Zombie HooDoo (horror)
  
• Zombie Chase (horror)
  

I’m not a big fan of horror movies; but I am pretty excited about the music.

Here’s today’s new offerings! The piano piece I did as a special request for a photographer, who liked the smaller version I wrote for him. Cut Trance was an exploration piece (I just got some new software, and needed to try it out) – also, someone requested something with a clockwork piano, and techno stuff going on… I think that’s kind of what’s going on here.

• White – New Age Piano
  
• Cut Trance – not sure what this is…
  

I finally got back up and produced a track. Latin, this time… I haven’t done a latin piece in over two years.
Notanico Merengue
Well… it isn’t entirely latin… but close enough to land itself on that page.
