Writing a story for/from the music is something I might continue doing:
"He came in today, stoic as ever," told she, the harp. The chords about casually listened in as she told. The high piano entered statefully with pride, an old man in ragged…

So, I learned a new trick.
I was kinda bummed 'cause I thought I needed to buy a software that would control volume and tempo. I mean... I knew LMMS could set the volume and tempo from the start, but I didn't think it could change things on-the…

I had originally titled this 01May2010 with the intent of saving myself time by not thinking up titles... Then I thought about the marketing benefit for the Dungeonhack project, however small, which would be slighted by uninteresting titles. Curse…

Over a month since I've posted anything... I figured I'd show some progress.
This one's heavily inspired by a piece of re-Daggerfall music... I took the key signature, most of the instrumentation, and the mood, but I wrote every note. Here's…

This isn't the work-in-progress version... hence the 2.
Strings changed to low clarinet; music box changed to high clarinet... A bit of duet-ish-ness going on... Yeah.

I know, another terribly clichéd title... I'm just bad at naming them, I guess...
I just kinda sat down and wrote this one in over the past few hours... I liked it, so I'm uploading it... Or maybe I'm falling back to uploading everything... I…

Understand that it isn't that I've stopped writing or completely forgotten about the project, it's just that I stopped posting everything I made when I realized I was wasting my time... Nobody cares to listen to piece after piece of a developing…

First piece I've ever written that isn't... nice? At least, I tried to make it not sound nice... It's just an experiment.
Uploaded
This's my longest piece ever at 3:09! I think it kinda fits the mood that I'm trying to learn to compose in... I'm just happy it uploaded this time.
It must be something with Chrome... I tried uploading this a few days ago, and it kept giving…

I really disliked the first Affront I posted here... the choir sounded terrible and the timpani didn't boom enough...
I've improved on the harp, making it pizzicato, added some harmonic-ish strings, and made the timpani a bass drum, which…

Isn't that the lamest, most clichéd title of a piece you've ever heard?
Anyway, this one was like an epiphany... I was messing with a different piece, stopped, and wrote this in like half an hour.
It's only about 40 seconds, which is way shorter…

School started on September 8th, so I haven't been doing a lot; this is my first piece all week, and I wrote it in about 3 hours, so it isn't that great... My definition of not that great is getting better, though... It's a nice piece, I think…

That's right! The first of my pieces with a title!
It actually started as a little tune I whistled when I was getting my soccer stuff off after practice, and it hit me to record it, so I did... This is the outcome.

There's really nothing special about this... I didn't even mean to write it.
I was looking for a (free) way to make music that's more... expressive. Rosegarden doesn't have enough in the way of dynamics. I tried a bunch, and I ended up with LMMS…

I talked to the guy in charge of... well, everything but coding, I think... He gave me a lengthy description of the culture of where this piece is for, including pictures, which I was waiting on... The drums need to be fleshed out, but this is…

... And another not-that-great variation of Harp Ocarina. This is my basic idea of what a battle song could sound like in an rpg... maybe...
Uploaded
This is a sad-ish... maybe "spooky" variation of Harp Ocarina.

I do intend to title this, eventually... (Harp Ocarina... Nifty, huh?)
It's the first piece I wrote for DungeonHack. I'll probably pick this apart to write a few variations... It's got like three "moods," and I need pieces with one...
