So for the second night in a row I am working up a series of beats using the Triton's presets. The challenge is not to make the beat track too monotonous. I'm recording a number of different beats - probably around 5 - using 67 beats per minute as the core tempo (a prime number) - I can blend in tempos at 134 and even 201- which gives me lots of options when it comes to creating the beat track. I would love to work with someone who was passionate about beats - I think that would be a lot of fun.
Had a great night -working at 113 beats per minute - using five different grooves from the Triton and then freestyling on top - I like the way the beginning came out - need to mix the rest...actually...need to sleep...[display_podcast] ---------------- Now playing: Music2Work2 - 113 - roughmix via FoxyTunes
Listen to a short clip of Music2Work2’s session Sexercise (aka Ex Er Cise).
This session was composed for an all-women’s workshop on releasing sexual energy. It is rhythmic, slow, with an ethereal sound to it. The piano and strings seem to float together.
This session evokes for me a sense of exploring, growing and stretching, which could be in any aspect of life. The picture that comes to my mind is of an awakening, an unfolding, similar to the way the petals of a flower unfold. Truly exploring any dimension of ones self would need to be done slowly, one layer at a time, until full awareness or awakening is achieved.
This is a lovely piece of music, lasting about 30 minutes. Words I would use to describe it are calming, soothing, sensual and beautiful. The full session can be purchased through the Music2Work2 website.
