Virtal - Alien Annihilation

2012-12-11



Composition for brass instruments and orchestra percussion: Trumpets, Trombones, Horns, Tuba, Timpani, Bass drum, Snare drum, Cymbals, Anvil.

This was the only composition that I did not write sheet music for. I created it entirely in cubase DAW, although I felt some difficulty writing the final melody without the staves. The whole concept of this composition is closer to avant-garde musique concrete than to traditional note-based music. It is based on sound spectrum more than on particular notes and chords.
For sound EWQLSO was used, mainly grouped instruments, except Tuba and percussion. Here I first use compound CFS sampling with equalized C and dynamic C/S levels. This allows to use no effects at all (except limiter, but I do not use it much). All reverberation is sampled.
