90’s Project
This class project on music was about bringing back the 90’s and showing where society is today. There were some great melodies. Maybe not so much on the lyrics but the music was good. I’ve decided to make some arranged versions of some of the most catchy tunes. I’ve noticed that I’m not the only one sneaking in old progressions. I can safely assume that everyone is trying to preserve the classics, keeping them fresh. Whether it was done justice, is another story.
Darkness Rising
Darkness Rising is a laid-back chill song. Everything is slow and relaxed as the darkness rises. At the very end of the song, dawn comes and there is liberation across all land. It’s all symbolic of course.
Counterfeit People
Counterfeit people is dedicated to all the people who say horrible things behind people’s backs and don’t have the balls to confront them and say it to their face. You all know who you are; I’m not an idiot and I’m quite aware of what lying smile is being said to my face. I can at least have respect for an honorable disagreement.
New Album: HzdB
A new 90’s pop song remixed from the past. Can you guess which song it came from?
Instrumental: Sideways Hatter
Here is an 1800’s sounding song. The main instruments are guitars and harpsichords with a few modern synths thrown into the mix. This creates a very odd sounding song, which is where the name, Sideways Hatter, came from. I imagine a man in a suit with a top hat and cane, strutting down an olde street with a kink in his neck. Its quite a strange image, but that is what the song says to me.
Instrumental: Jazz E
Here is one of my first jazz pieces.
Instrumental: Acceptance + Empire Courtyard Compilation
This is a two piece compilation. The first half is called, Acceptance. It starts off with the power and might of the higher authority dictatorship. The piece then shows the decay of society and depression from what has happened. Everyone lives their lives in fear and obeys whatever the dictatorship says. The second half, Empire Courtyard, is the main capitol of this dictatorship. It sounds huge and empty because most of society lives in the slums while the VERY few live in the Empire…
Instrumental: D.A.T
This HipHop instrumental is with a string quartet. It’s very urban and modern. D.A.T stands for ‘Dope Ass Track’ because when it was being recorded, everyone in the room was calling this track that. Kept the name, but abbreviated it for the album. Enjoy!
