The Aqueduct of Jerwan

One of my favorite locations in Being and Becoming is this place- it's so sparkly and pretty! I wanted the music to reflect that.

The Monarch (Music Box Arr.)

A character theme for 'Being and Becoming'. The monarch seems very mysterious. I wonder what he's about..?

An 8-bar intro section constructed today, for a longer piece, after finishing a chilled beats tune. It's only been a full 2 months since I DL'd #Garageband and started playing with a semi-serious DAW. I'm going to be scratching this #musiccomposition itch a little longer, I think, so much so that I DL'd and installed Cakewalk Next...for when I'm ready to use the BBC Orchestra Discover VST to compose more complex pieces.

Got kind of an obtuse music notation question for all my composer and performer friends out there:

I've got piece of music, and it has large sections of it that are based on a half/whole scale starting on F. There is no key signature given in the piece.

So here's m'y question: Most of the time it works out better to use flats (F,Gb,Ab,A,B,C,D,Eb), but occasionally it works out better to do sharps (F,F#,G#, etc.) would it be better to keep it all noted in flats for consistency sake, or to switch it to the sharps where it reads easier?

Right now I'm leaning towards keeping it consistent, but I'm open to either way because ultimately I want other people to have an easier time performing it rather than having it the way I would prefer.

Played around with the beat sequencer to set up each section of percussion, and using sampled, edited clips in #Garageband. Each sample requires a new track; seems inefficient; ended up w/ 18 tracks. Either I haven't yet figured out variable volume control in a track (other than editing each note's "velocity"), or the app doesn't have the ability to do so.

I call this short-ish tune, "Wag the Dog". It's obvious why, when you listen to it. #Music #MusicComposition

@DBG3D @t36s Okay, I found another nice excerpt, a bit more minimal than the above, but maybe also more clear to hear the approach described earlier. Just to explain once more, all the samples used are only one-shot single notes (produced by Simon Pyke/Freefarm). All melodies, chords, chord progressions, rhythm and the overall arrangement are fully generated (mostly but not exclusively) via cellular automata. The composition system also had other means to create/control, e.g. probabilistically trigger the recording of notes/events of selected tracks/channels for a few bars and then replay these phrases later, maybe using a different time scale, transpose, mirror and/or with different instruments... This proved to be highly effective (and musical) in terms of longer progressions and to create more interesting multilayered compositions/progressions. Some phrases were kept in a memory pool for up to 12 hours (the piece ran for 3 months)...

As you can hopefully tell, the visuals for that installation were audio-responsive (not really audio per se, but responding to the events of the composer). Likewise, if the visuals would become too agitated/intense, an event would be sent to the composer to quickly dial down/thin out the musical intensity (e.g. trigger tempo change, mute tracks, lower velocity etc.). This hybrid, coupled two-way feedback worked very well in practice and there were so many moments I wish I would have recordings of...
