Current Projects

[pftq]

Just keeping my current projects in this thread, rather than starting new ones all the time (and if you're not interested, you can just ignore this one thread).   As usual, if anyone wants to help with any of my projects, let me know.  Feel free to post your own projects too if you want help/suggestions.  It'll be more fun to team up.

At the moment, just working on this song with a koto:

It's a lot more eastern-sounding than what I've done before; I've probably been listening to East Wind too much.  It's supposed to sound more neutral though - I don't know why it sounds sad or evil.  Ideas??

Made a picture for it.  I'm stuck on where to continue the melody though.  I can't decide whether to make it more pleasant or more Halloween-ish since Halloween is in two days... Thoughts?

Yes, it's a koto.  The song is called Koto.

[pftq]

The flute is an Indian bansuri though.

[kerogunso]

ohhh....cause I feel like the main instrument is the flute not the koto lol

I'm just gonna go ahead and state the obvious: it's those flute notes trailing down that make the song sound sad and melancholy.
Also, why is the 'Date Added' in 2014...?

[pftq]

Haha, it will be added one day, some day... from the Future.

Ah, but I love the flute.... need some amazing way to make it trail down happily.  We shall see

Some new melodies stuck in my head while I'm stumped on how to finish my other ones.

[pftq]

Remaking one of my first songs yet again.  But I haven't even finished the other two yet.  I've not been productive at all.

[pftq]

Trying to pick out songs to keep in my portfolio reel.  If anyone has time to go through each song and let me know which ones they think I should keep, that would be greatly appreciated.

That's cool, I'm designing the audio/music for the 1st Gastronomical Virtual Reality Experience ( http://www.projectnourished.com ). The 1st environment we worked on was a japanese garden and suhis, I had to research and use a high end Koto library loadable in Kontakt. It ended up working well using a lot of different variations.
Between I'm also the Head Of Audio for Hyperloop Transportation Technologies :-)
