Old little jam that I forgot to post up at the time; Glints is a cool little tune with some simple keyboard soloing.
Very straight kind of funk tune with a few sloppy bass lines and standard 909 drums. Hands.
Quirky little synth beat to begin with then a more melodic, awkward funk tune with a processed vocal, deep bass. Mohawk.
An exercise in making each instrument sound as it would on a early 70s funk recording. Drums are crisp but lo-fi, bass is just bass and the guitar is twangy. Nice little tune; Dial Sh for Shhhh.
PEER GYNT BY PETER NICOLAI ARBO FOR THE BOOK NORSKE FOLKE OG HULDRE-EVENTYR, 1896
The idea for this track kind of came from Edvard Grieg’s In The Hall of the Mountain King, which he composed for Henrik Ibsen’s play Peer Gynt. It’s a really well known piece in TV and film. The instrumentation follows a chase by the trolls after Peer Gynt, ending with the Mountain King going after the protagonist himself and then the mountain collapsing as he escapes.
So what I did for Higher In The Helium Hall was introduce bigger instruments and time signature changes to signify changes in a narrative and introductions of characters. While listening to this track you could imagine a chase similar to that of the Mountain King.
