The Expanse - Part 1 - InitiumMusic

25th Mar 2020 12:51 - 6 years ago
Description : RAW (Studio mixing to come later)

Composed in 2015-16

All parts of the story written and inspired by a dream. A very personal story. I can't sing,so the emotions are in the notes. This is the instrumental version. The sheet music was written for a group.
The Expanse is the beginning, a journey into the unknown, a risk.

If you want the 4 part story names, check the song lyrics tab.

Haha you should see me swaying like trees in the wind...then again, maybe not. This makes me want to dance around the round, but I am at work. It is exhilarating and full of excitement and anticipation. That must've been some dream. -)

An epic piece with a highly cinematic flavor, it suggests images of panoramas observed during a flight. Good job

Apt description. The Expanse is the flight into the unknown, hence the upbeat tempo, and more uplifting mood. The other ones of the story have a minimalist somber story to tell. The last song is coming home to a new understanding.

Great track, I like the chord progression/harmonies and escpecially the part around 2:50 with the flute.
Very good composition and arrangement!

Thank you! It's hard to pinpoint my favorite instrument, typically strings are my favorite, but I've been enjoying flute as well. Cellos though, oh boy that's my jam.

As i said in the response of the comment of one of my title, the instrumental is beautiful. We can imagine it at the end of a great movie.
Will you post the 3 other parts ?

Thanks! After listening to a few of your things, I think I am inspired by my favorite song of yours to also write something new as well.

As for the other 3 parts, the truthful answer is I don't know.

I don't really consider them complete or good, and the fourth song "Home" it seems the live recording of a certain section of the song was lost.

Either I have to dive down through my storage files and find it and/or re-record it, or I can upload the very raw, horrible sounding rough rough rough draft, and I typically don't like uploading stuff that sounds really really bad versus only moderately terrible. :-P

I'll think about it though.

Description : My third rap song. Still not entirely sure how I got here, but I'm having fun with it. This time, I brought along my alter ego, Cool Grandpa. He's got more swagger than I do and helps bring a little street cred (although not much) to the operation.

Description : Unfiltered. Just me and the Squier Stratocaster. Comp edited the recorded guitar freestyle clips so it all sounds like it was recorded in one take. I used one of my old beats. Trying to get my guitar to scream was my goal, but in the process i made the guitar make sounds i didn't know it could make.
