Awesome - thanks! Never got around to picking this up...

Thank you so much!

Tracks "Bitch is Hardcore" and "Starla's Got Her Gunn" appear in Symphony No. 3: The Incident at Goose Creek Vol. 2 for those who may be interested.

You work a fourth-rate film composer's ideas into a "symphony"? Weird!

I'm going to insinuate that you aren't familiar with my works. My "symphonies" are more or less tributes to composers whom have helped me in my musical awakening. Some of the names will surprise you as some of them are very obscure. While none of it is my own original work, they are essentially templates as to what to expect when I begin writing my own original music. Of course it will take many years for me personally to develop a style that intense but it's my goal. I'm working the last bout of horror score tributes out of me through my upcoming Symphony No. 4: Murder on the Night Plains. At that time, I will have 4 templates available and will have purchased my instrument of choice: the cello. I never thought almost 15 years later that dropping out of band in middle school would be such a mistake but it's never too late. It's just a whole hell of a lot trickier.

Symphony No. 1: Blood Wings was my first symphony that was developed based on a trippy dream I had once. It's the only story I can recall waking from immediately to write as much as I could down about it. I tried to write a novel about it but it required a finesse, style and ability that I clearly didn't possess at the time. I was also experimenting heavily with Penderecki music. I was realizing how effective is was at establishing dread and displaying unrelenting horror through its atonal structures. It originally began as a 10 minute suite that bears nearly no resemblance (apart from the Threnody for Victims of Hiroshima insert) to what it is now. I released an expanded 3 movement "symphony" to this forum and after Insidious came out, my imagination went into high gear. I loved Joseph Bishara's use of the strings in his score for Insidious but to avoid making my influence too obvious I absolutely refused to use any of the Insidious score in my work but rather amping up what Bishara only hinted at in Insidious. For the final version, I mixed a final Coda cue as my final send-off to my first project. It was a quick hour job but it ties everything up nicely. It's a wonderful conclusion that still sends shivers down my spine.

Symphony No. 2: The Incident at Goose Creek Vol. 1 came about on the heels of Blood Wings. When I started it and finished the first mix, a quick demo while driving began formulating ideas in my head. This was going to be my big end-of-the-world epic. The most epic end-of-the-world scenario ever brought to fruition via music. I called it my ode to Zimmer and was even dubbed "Zimmer on Crack." Considering the idea was very barely realized, I encourage listeners to use their imagination as I have not the imagination to write stories. Not yet anyway. I was also influenced by Jerry Goldsmith's Logan's Run in the creation of this.

Symphony No. 3: The Incident at Goose Creek Vol. 2 came about as a listening aid for my road trip to California from Kentucky. Needless to say, it works wonderfully riding from Palmdale to L.A. and you can even finish it on time if you time your trip wisely. There is no story behind this one yet but the original idea I had was developing as a tribute to Dante's Inferno in that it had the Apocalypse (Vol. 1), Hell (Vol. 2), Purgatory (Vol. 3) and Paradise as its structure. Vol. 2 can more or less be considered Hell. You will notice the action cues feel a bit more epic than Vol. 1 as well. Vol. 3 and 4 MAY come eventually but right now, it's a daunting project so it might take me a while to complete the set.

Symphony No. 4: Murder on the Night Plains was an idea inspired while traveling through the 29 Palms desert while listening to Terry Riley's Cadenza on the Night Plains. I have developed some interesting ideas for it and may end up being my longest project yet. I've done a 40 minute, 77 minute and 55 minute project so in conclusion to my horror tributes, this may run around 2 to 3 hours. With that being said, I will be experimenting more with the psychology behind the music and it will feature less bombastic music. It won't be short of it but it will feature less of it. There are samples for this located on the thread to give you an idea of the direction I'm heading towards.

Anyway I hope that was informative enough. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks for sharing, Cody! :)

Fourth-rate film composer, lol, let me guess your top three Hans Zimmer, Steve Jablonsky & Bryan Tyler...

.

At least they still pay interest in fourth-rate composer threads, I get bored after second rate...

No, no and yes. Brian Tyler's stuff seems to be just loud for the sake of being loud although his earlier stuff wasn't that bad. His newer works wouldn't be so bad if his stuff wasn't overmixed to hell and deadset on deafening the listener.

As for Tyler Bates, no he is not a favorite by any stretch of the imagination but I did like Slither. Don't judge. Judgment is reserved for *insert deity here*.

Thanks, codyap09

thanks :)

thanks :zillawalk:
