Almost all great themes share a few common traits • They fit within 8 bars • They follow either sentence or period structure • They have a clear apex (only one highest or one lowest point which is not repeated) • They have an obvious rhythmic pattern to such an extent that they would be memorable purely by rhythm alone Start with your C major scale on piano. Start at C and play down, one note in the scale at a time until you reach the C the octave below. Then, all you have to do is alter the rhythm in which you descend and you'll discover something quite famous That is how important rhythm is to great melodies. It can turn the most boring C major scale into one of the most recognizable tunes in all Western music

@gaspard I don't see a stand alone post of yours for the entry, so I'll just say here that your entry is awesome to me. It's very colorful and jaunty, and even if I didn't know the space battle theme beforehand, I would've definitely stood in favor of it depicting a battle. Very cool music! Your writing is superb, and only outshined by your handwriting. The score is beautiful 😄 Peter, your orchestration is awesome too, and really brought Gaspard's music to life. It's very rich and heavy, but lighter when it needs to be. I like when you took out the clarinets and trumpets, that seemed like a wise orchestration decision to make the music more gentle over the flurry of harp notes. I think the theme could be easily heard with both versions. Maybe a little easier with the orchestra since it's not all homogenous in sound.

Inspector Looso searched the entire manor to find the body of Dick Boneman and found him in a little study hidden behind the library and lighted by a candlestick. No blood, no knife and no rope. Dick Boneman was absolutely alive and perfectly healthy. However, he was laughing his guts. He spent the night preparing his fool trap. He had absolutely no intention to disclose any fraud report to the media that would put the value of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. down the drain. Instead, he called every broker of the guests to setup a bad joke to his guests and the brokers made them believe during a phone call that their share had no value anymore, which was not exactly true. In fact, Dick Boneman used some of the asset of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. to buy three Social Media companies, “Switter”, “Analphabet” and “Minigram” for 69 billion dollars with the intention to layoff every employee and replace them with Artificial Intelligence. He then named the new social media company Y. Y would be the greatest misleading social media in the world providing chaos and dumbness to every country on earth. This way Dick Boneman would be the new god of social media and lies. Consequently, Y would be able to help Ronald Dumm to become the leader of his country using stupid catchwords such as "Make Anemics Greed Again". Soon after, on a press release, Dick Boneman declared to all the shareholders of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. “Rust & Bones is history”, our new moto will be “Mud and shitt is our Bread and Butter”. Dick Boneman is surely as slippery as a fish isn’t he? THE END “This story is a work of fiction.

Was it a good choice? I don’t know. What do you think?
