Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a tune I've been working on the last weeks. Tried to make a light and easy theme with elements of something cold or frozen maybe. I know it's very short but I like making these short tunes as a learning tool for improving my orchestration and mixing skills. Any comments?:)

I pretty much agree with anything you said. But we still have to deal with the tabula-rasa that avant gardes made in pretty much all arts fields. They "destroyed" everything and left pretty much nothing, and This can be seen both as a luck or a catastrophe. (Exasperated subjectivism is a key that doesn't lock any door anymore. Modern audience knows that whatever kind of modern art is going to see/listen, is gonna be something ugly.) Now composers ( and artists in general have the power to create everything they want...but at the same time everything sounds so much dull...I can feel that what we really miss is our own language. Maybe everything we can do is to just pick up the pieces of language that still work, and try to put them together to create a new music "beginning" in human history

First off, do not engage SSC. (S)he is too caught up in the post-modern self-delusion of, "it's all about how I feel about it". Not worth it. Second, I offer my opinion to your observation here To put it in a nutshell: The kind of education that is dominant post-enlightenment is the idea that nothing in the world has any inherent meaning — it's all just a force of nature — and any greater meaning you see in it is just how you feel about it. Once you understand this, you start to see what's fueling a lot of today's crazy people. Because, if you live your life this way, you stop asking how you can find purpose within the world and instead going about manipulating the world (including people) around you to suit your personal feelings about it. Thus — Michelangelo's work on the Sistine chapel is not really of any higher standard, artistic worth, or aesthetic than any old graffiti on a train car, because I personally think the latter is really cool.

Hi DFox - This is quite nice. and WELCOME.. I usually don't come to this section of site. I hang out it 'rock, pop' section.. Don't be discouraged if you don't get too many replies (or any). I don't know younger folks just don't have the manners the previous generation had. The Indigo Dream has love, attention to detail, and heart in it. I get that. Nice transitions to different sections, motifs. very smooth. Don't think it matters if you post here or link to soundcloud.. cause quite a few folks do link.. I was drawn to this, cause I wrote a piece a couple years back called 'Shades of Indigo'. Indigo is an intriguing word and color. Keep up the good work. Mark Styles

This is nice and smooth.. I really enjoy watching you guys play it too. One question - where are the smoky solo's?.... come on.. they are there somewhere waiting to be heard. What you've got now is good.

To be able to overcome a form, you must first know how to create it. This was what the great Argol Schonberg was saying. You first learn to build a simple classic sonata and then you are ready to fly away from it.
