Writer's block unappreciation thread[views:1697][posts:14]____________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:02am - Sacreligion ""] Trying to come up with new Sac stuff...and can't think of where to begin this sucks |
| ____________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:07am - Sacreligion ""] maybe i'll just mash a whole bunch of stuff together that doesn't make sense and call it our grindcore song |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:08am - brian_dc ""] I find that all you really need for a solid song is to get a few themes and just develop them it worked for all sorts of classical folk. |
| ____________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:09am - Sacreligion ""] i was thinking that...but that's where i don't know where to begin we've done a lot of slower stuff so i was thinking a balls to the wall song but everything i've come up with sounds like a song i've already heard before |
| _________________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:40am - davefromthegrave ""] write a song about a nuclear bomb |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:43am - brian_dc ""] anyone ever hear that piece about Hiroshima? just sounds like people screaming and sirens and all that jazz...done with strings and what not? |
| _________________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:48am - davefromthegrave ""] who did that? |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:51am - brian_dc ""] I don't remember...I need to dig through my old music theory notebooks...I'll try to do some quickie research now, since it's buggin me now. |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:53am - brian_dc ""] Krzysztof Penderecki - Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima found it |
| _____________________________________ [May 2,2006 2:54am - the_reverend ""] from 1997 to 2001, I made tons of shitty little electronic songs. they were so much fun. I put out a bunch of CDs caulked full of crappiness. in nov 2001, I stamped a CD with all the stuff that I wanted to put in there. the next night, I made a new song. slept. listened to it the next day and was like "that's the same shit I made before!" DELETE the next night, I made a new song. slept. listened to it the next day and was like "that's the same shit I made before!" DELETE and I haven't done anything since. |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 3:10am - brian_dc ""] listening to this now...really hard to listen to though...so dissonant. |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 3:10am - brian_dc ""] meaning the Penderecki thing. |
| ____________________________________ [May 2,2006 3:20am - Sacreligion ""] lucky for me i found a tape of some shit we jammed out about a month or two ago at practice...totally bringin it to practice tomorrow and fuckin with it after we finish the other new one hey aaron i did the exact same thing with fruity loops, made up like 3 or 4 songs, listened to em in a row, and realized that they were the same thing just with different sounds...it doesn't mean you should give up though! i think i'm gonna download that hiroshima thing |
| _________________________________ [May 2,2006 3:24am - brian_dc ""] one cool thing about it was the way the score was written...it was like...graphic notation, not normal musical notation. There score is just like a sequence of big black blobs to show note ranges. A lot of notes on emotion of the moment and just basic notes with guidelines for what should be going on for each section in a given moment. It was arranged for 52 stringed instruments...fucking crazy. |
| ____________________________________ [May 2,2006 3:27am - Sacreligion ""] that's a whole lot of stringed instruments i heard something a couple years back of this new music writing software that uses colors and grids as opposed to your standard sheet music and some kindergarten-2nd grade students in europe were writing some brilliant music with no training whatsoever...just goes to show you how universal music really is fuckin weird |
