Bird flies away.
Wind eases once.
Sun sets.
Grasp not.
Fly with clouds.
Wind has no rhythm.
VIA REMOTENESS (7:12)
Heavenly Music Compo Arrangement
by Eterman in 28.8.2000 for HMC3
Now this is not that modern, the piece. I've listened
to a lot of modern classical music, mainly Finnish
composers such as Kokkonen and Rautavaara, but I don't
think I've taken any ideas from them. I understand some
of their works and have even learned to enjoy them, but
there is no way I could create something so deep as
their music is.
So if we have some tempo changes and the time signature is not
stable all the time, that yet doesn't make the piece modern.
Not that I wanted to track modern music, only something new.
It may be of conventional roots, but fresh it must be.
In this special arrangement, I removed all drums to make the
melody flow smoother. I also changed some instruments and even
adjusted melody progressions. The changes in time signatures
are mostly done considering the melody. I didn't intend to
show off. I know plenty of more skillful artists in tempo
changes and accents not to mention creating peaks.
I create melodies and chord-progressions and that's what I do
best. What listener is to do best, is to listen. (wow, what a bad
grammar!) It is interesting to catch the theory and analyze, but
I hope you all know what listening to music is all about.
Not theory, I hope. It's interesting, but not the purpose.
Not much more to say. Hope you enjoy this product.
Hope it adds something to the compo.
