Transparent Green (electronic music)

All about spring…

This music was composed right before my completion the course ‘Survey of Music Technology’ in Coursera (Georgia Tech University) in winter 2016/2017. I was eager to test new opportunities which come with EarSketch sound library and sound processing effects in DAW Reaper. My previously composed choral piece ‘The First Dandelion‘ was used here as stretched ‘back-sound’, and some more ‘spring’ sounds were added from the library.

Wind, don’t take me away! (electronic music)

Composed as an assignment  when taking Coursera course ‘Survey of Music Technology’ (Georgia Tech) (in winter 2016-2017), that was my first attempt to make something not in classical but in popular manner. The style here could be described as a mixture of  ‘funk’ and ‘ambient’… I included ethnic instruments sounds, natural sounds from EarSketch sound library… There are two moments which are personally remarkable for me in this music: 1) I used the live recording I have made in Kuwait, on the stony seashore during a stormy weather. The track is incorporated into the composition in a form of regularly distributed short fragments (so the stormy wind would sound in rhythm). 2) It was written in EarSketch API, with Python code, and that was a real challenge for me since I am not an IT specialist. Although it is not very clear when listening, the initial and the final parts of this music are based on stochastic functions (and that was the point of programming, otherwise you could do the same work, or even better, in DAW).
