Last year, I went to a boarding school, containing the classes: Recording, mixing, editing, programming and composing music. The best year of my life!
Right after christmas, I got a massive load of inspiration. And this song was the outcome.
And after 5 days, it came out as an finished product. Everything is synth, except the guitar.
You can download the pure synth and guitar version here
Later on, I was prepearing for a concert to mark the end of the school year. I decided to give a concert in 5.1 (5.2 actually:P ) surround. With a giant projection screen inside a gymhall. And i made it, a 30 minutes long concert with a coupple of my own tunes and one cover with pictures and videos on the wall and everything in 5.1 surround. Despite a quite bad computer crash the day before the concert. (I had to make the video during the night before the concert
)So, to make it extra cool, i recorded accustic drums, percussion, accustic piano and a new guitar solo (because the guitarist was not satisfied with his last recording). And i got cuite satisfied with the new and more organic/living feal of the song. So this is the best version.
You can hear the electroacoustic version by clicking here
Drummer/Percussionist: Stian Villanger (My drum teatcher for the season)
Guitar Player: Per-Anders Store (Pink Floyd fan, and one of my best friends and co-worker in studio)
The rest of the work, i have done by my self. (Recording, mixing and programming)
The song is abou what a beautifull world we live in, but we destroy a lot of it with war and bombing. And it's a time for you to think of what you expect of the future.
I have also made some other tunes i want to show you. But i will keep this short.
Film music inspired: Auditional Imagination <-- My first song ever! Exploring the use of a single line, but making something out of it. First time i ever recorded something, so i keeped the small mistakes in the recording for later on use.
Forgive my mistakes <-- Made to fill up between two songs in a concert.
If you wonder, my inspirations are: Jarre and film music composer Hans Zimmer.
I hope you like them!here
