New Music

New music is available on our website:

The idea was first:

to write a big piece for strings. Finally, after trying several sounds I stayed with solo strings that offers the most possibilities. I just regret that muted solo strings will be available in some days, that would have been very usefull.

second:

some people travelling inside "space catastrophes" each time completly different. I just kept in mind the cover of book I saw a long time ago of a desertic land. Two lovers could be seen speaking, but in the sky, there were two planets: so simple and so scaring.

My oldest son can't sleep anymore without listening this music. I hope you'll enjoy as much as him.

Best regards,

Great piece ...

 F.M.P.,

This is a very evocative piece, but are you sure what your oldest son said? Perhaps he can't sleep anymore because of hearing this!

It's a very dry mix. With a little reverb it would sound less quantified and computer driven. Perhaps that's the effect you want. Nonetheless, it's very kinetic and inspired.

Hi, 

Everything has been done with VI solo strings. My first intention was to use the orchestral strings, but finally I didn't,  for the reason they don't go so far in the hightest pitches.

About reverb, that's a problem I haven't been able to solve untill now. In my mind, using reverb is necessary - that was really good with gigastudio - but the ones I find now change the quality of the sound so much - especially for drums - that I prefer doing without. The fact is also, when we play the music in concert, reverb become unnecessary inside the concert hall. If someone has an idea, I would be happy trying it.

About my son, no mistake - maybe it's true for other people, but not for him.

Sincerly,

Thanks for the answer,
there is like a beating sound pretty at the beginning after one minute - were those pizz samples if I may ask ... :)
Well, reverb is really pretty subjective - I like UAD DreamVerb a lot as it does not colour that much (also I use the functionality to narrow the early refs and the tail, so that it is not to wide which gives a more defined sound IMHO). I also like Virsyn Reflect for the same reason (for Reflect the tail itself is pretty dense and warm, but I do not find it very coloured, somehow still has the tint of the instrument). Giga had a impulse reverb I think - so something like that might also be interesting (Origami, Altiverb or wait for what is coming from VSL ...)
maybe one of the mentioned reverbs works for you .... :)

I guess, if you are speaking about the repeted notes, the effect is the col legno with eighth and quarter of tone. There is one Bartok pizz - newly called "snap" before this.

Thanks for the reverbs, I gonna try.

 A very "nice" piece indeed, if Conlon Nancarrow would be still alive it could have been one of his "Player Piano" works, it´s a very mechanical music with straight lines and well done clusters and for some listeners possibly a bit too horrible. [:)]

I like it!

Thanks,

I didn'y know this american composer. I'm always fascinated by people who were naturalized in Mexico - surely, I should do the same.

Nevertheless, the two music are so different !

If you like this one perhaps you'll enjoy the others on:

I posted a link two ago after woking on the website, but surely it's a little far.
