If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy drinks, frequency of bathroom breaks and risset beats. -Nicolas Cage

This composition mostly relies on the same waltz/melody, it is introduced strait away and continuous throughout the piece. I've spent about 4-5 hours completing this Waltz however I feel like I could have challenged myself a bit more like with my previous Waltz, Waltz No.4 in D Major. Youtube Link ----------

lol but I also reinvented risset beats on my own without prior knowledge haha 😉 Yeah for the most part the tempo is constantly rising except for the first chorus and the outro. Yes its a linear non linear system I believe. lol "tragedy strikes at a local nightclub, leaving one to ask, how lit is too lit?" No idea haha it was just in my splice folder 😂 thanks man!!

This is really interesting! You totally stole my idea to use some aural illusions in my music and you executed it very well here! One could say that the constant in this piece is the changing tempo, which is a kind of contradiction. I imagine what this must be like to dance to, since you did mention to me that this is meant to be dance music. I envision a guy starting dancing to it in the beginning and by the end of the piece having to accelerate his dancing moves to unbelievable, spastic speeds LoL. Great job! P.S.: What are the lyrics in the sung vocals? I can't make the out.

Very interesting timbre and effect! That Risset tempo is very interesting as well. I imagine that's the effect of drinking that beguiles the conception of time!(Although I l've never drunken before!) Henry

I've just listened to the third movement. I love this movement more than the first two! For me the overall atmosphere, theme and structure are more uniform here. I feel there are more emotions in it. I like how you transform that opening theme in different keys. Subjectively for me the theme can be transformed and developed with more varied treatment, since I find the theme changes mostly in the key. I don't know much of the biblical story, but I guess during those 3 days there were different types of things happening, instead of the same searching in 3 days. I think you can just add more different variation of the main theme to it like a variation movement or even Wagner's use of leitmotives here, as it can signify the change but still cohere the whole movement! The ending is quite unexpected for me, as I think the key change quite abrupt. I see that you want to link this with the latter movement which is in D minor, but I think the ending D major here can be prepared with more time and last a bit longer to achieve the effect! Thanks for sharing! Henry
