Yeh I meant Ab, I just wasn't thinking correctly/in the right mindset when I wrote that, lol.

Can you explain the scale again, I'm a bit lost. It's just one octave divided into 13 equal parts, right? I've never studied/used/looked at microtonal tunings before. And btw I really liked it, "Langsam" was probably my favorite.

Oh. Thanks. I use only VST's so if I go back to my original sound file, and turn the overall volume of the mix, that should alleviate it, right? And do you have any software recommendations?

I really like both of them, but I prefer the first.

Claude Debussy's Arabesque That and Steward Copeland's "Autumn Plains"

Ha, yeh, I've just been stuck doing that for some reason. But thanks for the advice; I was gonna send them to my freind to edit, to mix with the timbre on it actually. I use Acoustica Mixcraft for my music, and if you edit it with too much reverb, effects, and etc the sound decomposes. And yeh I've noticed the clicking too, it's pretty bad in "Ether". I believe Audacity has a click remover, I should run my tracks through there. And "Rose Garden", was influenced alot by the background music that plays on the Nintendo Wii. But I've always liked Boards of Canada.

So, I have three questions. (I think I posted this in the right section) First off, I'm terrible awkward with chords. I want to know how to write out this chord progression, so that people can read it easily, and secondly can someone finish it off, I'm stuck on it. The first chord is a G# major 7th. The second is a G#,7,5#. The third chord I have no idea how to write out. It's root is a G, with an A, a B, a C, and an F. The fourth chord's root is an Am7, without the 5th, and with an add 7#. (I'm not really sure if this chord fits, but w/e). And then my last one so far's root is an F minor, with a D, and E. I'll attach the midi, if people can't understand what I'm trying to say. And while I'm at it, can anybody recommend a good book or something helpful for me to understand chord construction. I know how to write major chords/minor chords, 7ths, and stuff like that, but once I get out of the simple triad formula, everything gets fuzzy to me.

Well, for "Rose Garden", I created a progression that I thought sounded decent, and just focused on the effects. It came out pretty good, in my opinion, so I plan on adding on to it. The version up there was just a demo. And most of my ambient music has no real melody, except for "Alonetide" and "Forlorn".

Ok, so I'm 15, and just started writing music. Eddie Higgins on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads It's not really classical, nor is it electronic, but I don't know what else I should put it in...Actually, the first song is kinda ambientish, and the second song is a solo piano piece. I've never played the piano though, and I have no idea how to write for it, so please feel free to share thoughts, criticisms, etc on it. And here's the ambient music I write. circle of rose on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads It's not very good though...

I remember reading an interview that some magazine did with Shoji Meguro (he makes the music for the Shin Megami Tensei video game series) and he said, that all it took for him to get signed to Atlus was a demo tape and two interviews with the company. (Honestly, your music is a lot better than his is too, lol.) I'm not sure how to really do this, but this is what I'd do if I was in your position. First I checked your website, in your first post, and you seem to have a good bit of music composed, so first, just organize it into a demo cd. Then do a little bit of research and find a company looking for a composer. Ex. Here's Bethesda's Job Openings - Bethesda Softworks They currently aren't looking for a composer, but I'm sure if you google search video game producer's randomly, you'll eventually find one that's looking for a video game composer. I might be on the complete wrong track here, but that's how I think it's done.

Yeh. I would call it Game-Soundtrack too, although I'm not sure if that's considered a real genre. Although if you wanted to call it pop/dance I think that'd work too (even if it does seem a little complex/orchestral, for the genre), but it seems to be too "dancey" or "popish" to be labeled as classical.

I really liked it, especially Prometheus. It reminds me of a softer version, more subtle version of The Kovenant.

I thought it was really interesting, but I'd probably need to hear it performed to really understand-get a feel for it, because my midi playback is awful.

Amazing. This is so good, that I thought you minght be Jeremy Soule for a second! Ha, but anyway, I really liked it, and I'm not joking about the Jeremy Soule comment...

- like that?I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about though.... but there was that tour Bjork did with a live ensamble.
