I'm writing some new music and I'm so excited! I found this interesting text to set for SATB+Piano. bigsmile

Not quite B minor because I'm not raising the leading tone. Natural minor or Aeolian

My laptop is still charging and won't reach over there. frustrated

I tried to sound it out, though. Might do some data entry just to check, but it seems pretty.

Yes, I just wrote a song that goes something like this: "Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when Minglers come for you?" bigsmile

you asked about "composing", sorry

Compose? Like for winds and strings and stuff? Writing notation and tabs?

No.

But, I do have a complete ProTools recording setup, where I do drums, keys, bass and guitar tracks, until it's "good enough" and then layer some vocals and make goofy/fun/serious songs. Sometimes, I strip audio tracks off old TV shows and replace the soundtrack with something "different". pitchfork

(The DAW sits next to a complete HD video editor, along with several M-Audio I/O devices)

:laughing:

I have software that does a fair job of turning my "funtime" into actual sheet music. It just needs me to tweak for guitar tab and technique. Not that I even intend to publish most of it, it was more of an experiment to see "if it could be done".

The last track was a punk/grunge thing called "Stupid People". It could NEVER get airplay, it breaks too many 'rules' for broadcast. They'd have to bleep at least 70% of it. bigsmile

I've got about 40 or so, complete. Another 30 or so pieces that need help, and a couple of hours of improv that needs review to see if anything could be used elsewhere. Some turn out well, and others... not so well. All I know is that I have a blast, time passes quickly and I end up with some cool stuff.
