New Synthesis Music

Music, ,

I have created two pieces of music since my last blog post.

As usual, these resulted from experimenting with new plugins in VCV Rack.

The first is a piece that I am very proud of. It has gotten good feedback from both musicians and public. My goal was to produce a good piece with minimal plugins. It evolved into something pretty striking, I think.

The next piece, I just uploaded today. Again learning plugins that were new to me plus adding in some vocals which I had not done in VCV Rack. It’s interesting. See what you think.

It moves along pretty well!

Happy Holidays to all and may we all have the best possible outcomes.

Two New Music Videos

Music, ,

This week, I finally got around to putting music videos of my last two songs from last summer.  I like the music that I did a lot.  The videos are only pictures of the covers but it helps to put things on YouTube.

The first, Space Hop, was a remembrance of the Sputnik satellite.  I was in seventh grade at the time and a big science geek already.  I actually wrote a poem about Sputnik.  The music also contains the sounds of all the space travel movies I have seen since.

This second one was celebrating the first birthday of our granddaughter Margot.  I tried to capture a little of the joy of a young girl.

Space Hop!

Music, ,

I released a new song called Space Hop yesterday.  In celebration, I created a new album called Space Hop and made it available for purchase on a new venue for me, Bandcamp.

The album will soon be released in all the music store on the web.

The album has all of my most recent songs on it.  Many of these resulted from my taking the EDM Masterclass with DeadMau5.

I hope you like this new song:

 

Namaste,

Margot – EDM Contest Entry

Music, , ,

As I have said before, I have taken the deadmau5’s Masterclass in EDM Production.

For students in that class, deadmau5 has started a New Artist contest.  Each of us can submit one song.  Joel Zimmerman (deadmau5) will judge the entries and the winner will become a track on his newest album from his record label mau5trap and receive $10,000 and valuable music production software. Three finalists in the contest will receive $2,500 and more valuable music production software.  Ten semi-finalists will receive $1,000 and more valuable music productions software.

Obviously this is an exciting opportunity.  Here is my entry, named after my 1 year old grand-daughter:

 

May we all have the best possible outcomes,

“My Hero Tonight” a new song

Music, , , , ,

I’ve been distracted with numerous other parts of life. Finally, I have finished another song.  It is intended to be EDM but as usual, I got a little carried away into my own thing.

Try it, you may like it!

“My Hero Tonight”, EDM, November 2016
