I'm baaaaaaack
So wow, I guess the first thing to do is catch you all up on things. So in no particular order:
- My birthday came and went. I'm older now.
- I performed Chaos Theory at Indiana Purdue University with Dr. Gregg Gausline. There's not much space to go into it here, but it was a really exciting performance. The band sounded great, and the audience was 400+ high school honor band musicians... packed into a hall that seats about 300! YEAAAAARRRGGGHHH!!!
- Mortal Kombat kontinues... I wrote an orchestral tune for the game that the designers LOVED, so there's going to be a lot more orchestral music in the game now... along with all the freaky-deaky guitar textures.
- The Happy Feet gig is done. They chose one of those examples -- well, a remix of one of those examples. I'm not going to say which one... I'll keep you posted when the toy comes out!
- I saw Paradise Lost on Saturday night. The music sounds fantastic. The orchestrations Eric did are AWESOME -- he clearly put a lot of time into them, and they meshed with the electronica just beautifully. The story has changed a TON, so if you've seen it before, you have no idea what you're in for... except that Hila and Damon still sound fantastic.
- My guitar rig has changed. Again. I'm not going to bore you with the details now... I'll bore you some other time.
- I've narrowed down that sketch from WATERCOLORS to two titles: either "Moon Over Twilight Lake" or "Moonlight Dances On Twilight Lake". I appreciate the input from everyone (thanks Dylan!)... if anyone has an opinion between these two, let me know. Oh, and the music is almost finished.
- I finished another sketch titled "Raindrops Hang From a Spider's Web" (opinions, anyone?)... then decided yesterday that I lost track of what I wanted to do with the music, so I'm keeping the first 5 notes, and starting over.
- I am also working furiously on another one of these sketches... more on that soon...
- There's still one more sketch left to do...
- J.W. Pepper keeps telling everyone that my music is out of print. They've been doing this for months. In case anyone is wondering, NONE of my music is out of print. I'm about ready to crack some J.W. skulls...
