Pumpkin King - Metamorphosis - December 2011

Post by Pumpkin King »

Man it's dead around here...

Well, that's not going to stop me from trying to finish this. I think this is the last month, too. Well anyways, this song is called Metamorphosis. I came up with this nice and melodic soundscape in garageband, and played piano to it. I like how everything turned out.

I did have a few other things finished also. But I got this one done and would like to share it for December. One piece I did though was a cover for Stefano Barone's two songs in succession, Batman - Alexander Supertramp. The other is an orchestral arrangement for a song from the video game Donkey Kong Country, called Aquatic Ambience. I already did a piano cover for that awhile back. Anyone can check them out on my youtube page.

K, here's the youtube video for my song. I highly recommend it. I have it also on soundcloud, but it doesn't sound right. I'll get it fixed eventually.

I left a note in youtube (2looserox). I really do enjoy watching and listning. Sometimes visual detracts from the music and becomes the focus, but not here. Very beautiful.

Cool, thanks George.

Yeah I really like recording videos of my performances. I'm trying to do this for the majority of my songs for now on. This video in particular I was pretty happy with. I actually connected my ipod touch to the end of my keyboard using this rubbery spider-looking object (found it on amazon). I liked how it would cause the ipod to shake around when I played. I think it added a lot more to the song. Though without any visual, it seems like background music for a documentary (got a comment like that, and I agreed it kinda does).
