Do You Work in the Music Industry?

Like, even tangentially?? Because boy have I got an offer for you!! And by “offer”, I mean I need something from you. I’m a Berklee student, and I need to make contact with someone who works in music for an interview next week. I haven’t been given details on exactly what I’ll be asking for in the interview, but this is for a 3 credit introductory level class so it probably won’t be anything too intense. Really though, if you work with music as a performer, composer, on the business side, anything really, please send me a message! And if you don’t, could you please boost this? Thanks my loves!

@determamfidd and the talented Sansukh players??

is a music teacher and occasional composer okay? 🙂

filk-dad anon reporting for my dad! He’s got your soundcloud bookmarked on his computer and he says he’s eagerly awaiting everything you’re working on. He loved Gimli’s Jig and your Dain/Thrain/Thror themes (though he does ask if Thrain’s Tune and Thror’s Reel will ever be fleshed out as Dain’s was?). Light on the Horizon is beautiful he says, and he’s looking forward to the live (w/voices?) version. [Dets I think I’ve created a monster, he’s obsessively trawling soundcloud for filk!]

Hey FilkDad Nonnie!

omfg he’s bookmarked my Soundcloud account that is STELLAR. Thank you, and thank him as well, so very much!

I am not so sure about the tunes for Thrain and Thror – I really ought to revisit them!! I at least should create some chords for that reel 🙂

Heck, I’m earnestly hoping he likes Light on the Horizon – I’ve mostly completed the live version! Now I am waiting until the point in the story to release it. 

[HAHAHAHAHAH OH MY GOSH, that is brilliant. Seriously, what a great guy!]

How To Read Sheet Music by Julian Cianciolo

I am extremely entertained by this

@phantasrs @wind

the accuracy

“COUNTING TO FIVE HAS NEVER BEEN SO HARD”

“If you’re reading this it’s already too late.”

“That is assuming you call notes what they actually are.”

“this note is the only fun thing about trombone” this is true

Dets, I finally made it to the master post and just spent the last hour crying over the music. The sheer emotion. Iron Hills Soldier song!! And the Cradle song! I’m emotionally wiped. It’s just like I went back and reread Sansûkh with the music all playing in appropriate places.

Aaaaaaah I am so glad! SERIOUSLY so so glad – it’s my passion, music, and my livelihood, and so the pressure i put on myself when it comes to it is probably a bit too much but yeah, I am so SO GLAD you enjoyed it and that you emotionally connected with it!

*yodels joyously* THAT’S THE BEST FEEDBACK ANY MUSICIAN CAN HEAR TBH

sroloc–elbisivni:

Back at it again with the cello music! This one’s also from @determamfidd‘s Sansukh, Gimli’s Jig from Chapter 42. It’s an arrangement, actually written out and not just done by ear this time, because learning things by ear is hard. Also arranged because can I play the part written as is in treble clef? Technically yes. Would I enjoy it? No. 

This was fun. (even though listening to it a day later i can hear how many mistakes I made, yeeeeeeep…)

Dets’s provided sheet music is here, the original violin audio is here, the bass clef arrangement I made is here. This is a video again because, once again, my computer refused to be cooperative in regards to sound files. 

OH MY GOD

*dances madly* YESSSSS THIS SOUNDS AMAZING ON CELLO HOLY HECK..!

And a bass clef arrangement…! *gibbers in happiness* AHH THE DOUBLE-STOPPING SOUNDS SO AWESOME DOWN LOW, andhblajshdgaljh aaaaah the first jig sounds so? KICKASS? AHHH

*hugs and hugs* YOU MUSICAL FABWIZARD THANK YOU SO SO MUCH, this is awesome! 

(lmao less mistakes than I made, and in one take, also! :DDD )

the-dragongirl replied to your post “ow

Today I have done lots of recording…” 

*whispers* Audacity has a pitch adjustment function for fixing that one intonation mistake in a recording that is driving you crazy 

BUT I’VE ALREADY RENDERED AND MIXED ALL THE PARTS TOGETHER. i’d end up re-pitching all the rest of the harmonies as well, and they’re all correct and in-tune already. In short, I am an eedjit. 

It’s an acappella section too, no place to hide. Gonna have to re-record that entire section, all 16 bars, despite the fact that the fuckup is a blip right at the end. Gah. 

*steels myself* Here we go. Three takes for each part, 16+ individual recordings, coming up.
