You’ve all been requesting more horror music for a while now, and I just picked up a new Vibraphone, so why not!?
You can watch the notes on Youtube:
Or you can watch the waveform from SoundCloud:
Download from SoundCloud (for a limited time) or from this site here.
Cheers, all!
Just found out about Melon Drop for iPad. For an indie game, it is super pro on the graphics and level design.
Also, it is free.
Also, it is fun… Except for level 19, which is darned near impossible.
Also, it uses my music… Which is why I’m posting about it. :-)
I have a cognitive processing condition. I call it “dyscaptia”. Those CAPTCHAs, little photos of twisted texts that are on various sites that are designed to confuse computers, confuse me.
And I don’t mean that they take me a moment to figure out. I can not read them at all. I was off of Facebook for months because the password recovery process requires one of these things.
If your site requires one of these to use your product, or send a message… you will never hear from me. I have dyscaptia.
Oh! You have “alternate methods”, you say!!! One can just listen to the garbled audio version, you say!! Turns out no. I can’t. Well, I can listen, but I do not comprehend.
If they would have said you can either write a paper on symbolism in One Hundred Years of Solitude – or you can type in this CAPTCHA… it is at least possible for me to write that paper.
My work-around for CAPTCHA involves me getting on video chat with someone who will tell me what the hell the thing says.
It is mildly amazing to me, actually. There can be 5 people on the video chat – all of whom give me the same answer. And even when I KNOW the answer, I still can’t figure out how they got there.
So, either that Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart is wrong, or I am not human.
UPDATE
Got a great note from Maartin…
The possible solution to your problem: Rumola
If you use google chrome, I suggest you do, you can install this web addon called Rumola, with that you can bypass the captcha’s, it solves them for you, of course it probaly won’t work ALL the time, but it’s probably better than calling 5 other people on skype or something like that.

Thanks!
There’s a new site that’s just starting out, I’m pretty excited about it.
It is a net label for Public Domain music.
http://www.givelifebacktomusic.com/
What does that mean? I’m not sure anyone knows yet… But!
To commemorate this new site, I make up a fake band called “Severed Personality” (with free cover art from Shareheads).
The idea was to throw together some crappy music really fast to add to the new site.
The music turned out pretty reasonable, though.
Yeah, these guys are in the Public Domain.
More music in the Public Domain at http://freepd.com/
I get a lot of requests for people wanting to know how to “get into the music business”. Some people are honestly confused – which is understandable, because I’m actually IN the business, and I am still confused. This document is for all of the people who make music – and want to make music more.
This document is not a happy/flowery/you-can-do-it document. But, I understand negativity turns people off, so I’ve included the positive (and very very wrong) version of things as well.
Totals for today’s composing event: 18 pieces. 16.4 minutes of music created over 7.3 hours. Thanks everyone!
