I have had an extreme block for a very long time with composing... I just have no motivation.  With that being said, I’ve decided to lower myself into the shallow waters gently, and this song was a good way of starting.  The bass just wasn’t quite up to scratch, in my opinion. Too simplistic; not complimentary enough to justify its simplicity. So I completely re-evaluated it.

Enjoy!

P.S The name signifies what I tried to put across. I hope that comes through to anyone hearing it.

Drifting Through Life

University destroyed my creativity for months... It was a rather horrible slump. But this emerged from the depths yesterday. 

Just an original composition about how uplifting some people have been for me during particularly arduous times lately - hence the rising phrases in quite a few sections. 

Enjoy.

Hidden Underneath. I received this wonderful idea in a dream long ago. But my attempts at achieving my targets for it failed. 

I’ve obviously written Lemmy’s theme prior to this, but there are moments in my story in which his countenance fails to shroud his sadness. I thought this would serve as a second theme, for the times he refrains from disclosing his misery.

The Forest Here is a revamped version, as this seems to be the only thing I have motivation for, lately. 

All right. It starts out dark, and frightening, as Iggy and Lemmy wake up, unaware of their location, in an overgrown forest. Sinister, striking shadows loom from every tree. Terror reigns.  But as Lemmy rightfully reminds Iggy, they are together; there is nothing to fear. 

Then the madness begins.  Disclaimer: headphone users beware, the frequencies in the beginning may cause some irritating feedback; I couldn’t find a cause, nor a cure. Sorry. It’s fine without them, however.  Hope you enjoy! :)

DON’T Stand With Them: Part 3

Name: Paul (Jp: Shinji)

Series: Pokemon Diamond/Pearl

Description: A stone-faced, cold-hearted young Pokemon trainer who seeks power at all costs, is utterly ruthless in his training and battle methods, and will abuse or throw away any “weak” Pokemon that fails to meet his standards.

So why do people “stand with him”?

Bravo.  In all honesty, though, Paul is likely considered a Dark Horse. Retrospectively, I considered him that way as well, despite the fact I despised him. He was a maverick; differing in mind from the generic Pokémon trainer.  “Love brings out the best.”  Perhaps the refreshing feeling people derived of his clinical outlook made him appealing through beguiling factors. After all, Ash got on my nerves to the point I stopped watching mid-Unova. It was lovely to see someone as disdainful of him as I was, and not an immature child like Trip. Little did this justify Paul’s behaviour, however.

His character can be judged as realistic. Think of the way many treat animals in general, and Paul doesn’t seem a far-cry from normality.  Especially when competition is a contributing factor. It’s postulation, but perhaps people believe they can relate to his psychotic tendencies, attempting to rastionalise their own. Darkened thoughts are sometimes represented in obscure ways, and can lead to extreme harmonisation, even if unconscious.

Whispered Constraints. 

I just bought Sibelius 7, and am utterly in love with its functions... How open it is; I finally feel I’m fully in charge. I’m no longer restricted, and can do what I want.  To celebrate the monumental achievement that is Sibelius 7 I’ve decided to lengthen this song, as I said I would. The motivation finally hit me.

A Tender Moment LEMMY DAY! Happy Lemmy Day. Yes. To accentuate its brilliance, I’ve decided to post another thing. This is it, lads: the first thing I ever composed for my story! I actually changed its key a few months back. Anyway, the tender moment is between Iggy and Lemmy, as always with me... dammit.

It’s warm; it’s cosy, and it fills me with glee. I hope it does you, too! Enjoy!

Whispered Constraints.

All right, so I found this again… And I love it. I absolutely love it. I really hope you enjoy this one. When I read back a paragraph I’d written: (Reformatted version) He grinned, and his expression infiltrated my mentality, delving into the deepest abyss of my being. Tranquility sedated my thoughts; I was lost within his smile – his exceptional contagion of jollity. Gradually, the misery evaporated; the suffering dissipated. Everything just stopped. I ended up composing this as a result. Basically, that passage there and this piece of music are one and the same, just in different forms.

Oh, and I failed to mention, Iggy was feeling dejected and guilty due to the previous night, but when Lemmy smiled this is how he felt… I need to make this longer at some point, when the motivation kicks in. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11181152/1/Revolution

Lemmy’s Theme I think I may end up posting the entirety of these. Why not? Okay. Here is, by far, the most complex thing I’ve ever written. It’s insane.

I wrote it a while back, but the difficulty is burned into my brain. It’s written in an irregular time signature, and let me tell you, with its swung rhythms, getting the meticulous details perfect wasn’t easy.

So, yeah! This is Lemmy’s theme, which is made relatively apparent by its upbeat attitude. I made it 5/4 because he’s erratic and spontaneous, and has a lot of bite the way I’ve characterized him. I admire him, to be honest. His confidence is something I wish to inherit. Anyway, that’s it from me… rambles galore. Hope whoever hears this enjoys it, as it sure as hell wasn’t easy to produce. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11181152/1/Revolution

Your theme for Iggy is really, really nice! In the second half I can hear hints of what sound like the Comet Observatory theme from Super Mario Galaxy. Was that an intentional thing you put in or is it just a coincidence?

Thank you! I haven’t played Mario Galaxy in the best part of five years! I looked up the theme, though, and can hear it. They’re both vamps, and a lot of vamps tend to sound alike, so just a coincidence, I guess. :)
