  1. Lichtinvallen (meaning in Dutch "Incidences of Light") is a set of variations (and inversions) on a theme, for two tenor saxophones, double bass, marimba, and percussion.

    Here, I tried to step away from the concept of the measure; the phrases stated by the sax last "as long as they need to", without necessarily conforming to a time signature. Rather than encasing the idea within a meter, I wanted to leave it free, unconcerned, isolated from any context.

    ここでは、「小節」という概念から離れることを試みました。サックスによって提示されるフレーズは、必ずしも拍子記号に従うことなく、「必要な長さだけ」響きます。アイデアを特定の拍子の中に閉じ込めるのではなく、あらゆる文脈から切り離し、気ままに自由な状態にしておきたいと考えました。

    Qui ho cercato di allontanarmi dal concetto di "battuta"; le frasi esposte dal sax durano "quel che devono", senza necessariamente conformarsi a una suddivisione di tempo. Piuttosto che incastonare l'idea all'interno di un metro, ho voluto lasciarla libera, disinvolta, isolata da qualsiasi contesto.

    Hier heb ik geprobeerd afstand te nemen van het concept van de 'maat'; de frasen van de sax duren 'zo lang als nodig is', zonder zich noodzakelijkerwijs te schikken naar een maatsoort. In plaats van het idee op te sluiten binnen een metrum, wilde ik het vrij laten, onbekommerd en geïsoleerd van elke context.

    Ici, j'ai cherché à m'affranchir du concept de «mesure»; les phrases énoncées par le sax durent «aussi longtemps qu'il le faut», sans nécessairement se conformer à une signature temporelle. Plutôt que d'enfermer l'idée dans une métrique, j'ai voulu la laisser libre, insouciante, isolée de tout contexte.

  2. Lost to the Ages

    New score video: youtube.com/watch?v=7h07HMFoiG0

    This piece had a lot of imagery to me of a sort of mysterious, ancient sort of place. I really love the aesthetic of ruins reclaimed by nature.

    Gentle start to proceedings after George took out a local fox, starting with some neo-classical sounds from Donna McKevitt, into some Prog, Fusion, Dub, classic Miles and a couple of bits from my forthcoming installation I'm doing in a local church called Process and Reality (after the work of Alfred North Whitehead). Good vibes and good weather. Win.

  4. 🇩🇰 Martin Hall "Services Rendered" – 2018

    A deeply yearning and dramatic piece, built around piano and strings, creating a sparse yet emotionally powerful setting for Hall’s distinctive voice.
    Shows a different side of Hall from the uncompromising avant-garde of his early years, yet the same artistic seriousness and intensity remain. Following his death, the song takes on an entirely different and deeply poignant meaning...

    Political differentiation is what’s needed in a political system where all parties (even the #Greens afaik) are content to work with the current #Economic system which is stuck in a 40 year old dogma; that markets know best (aka #NeoClassical or #NeoLiberal economic hogwash clearly debunked twice since the #Thatcher and #Reagan anathema on #WealthEquity , #SocialLicence and #SocialDemocracy).

    Otherwise the electorate would wake up to the con job the polies perpetrate.

    And 100% on #FirstNations and #TorresStraightIslanders, all players in the political arena have #Abandonned them as a result of #TheVoice debacle (thank you #Anthony for doing fuck all to make sure the referendum passed, it clearly showed whose side you’re on #AlboPM )

    I’m fucking sick of all polies and their lies, redirections, misdirections and disinformation. I can see no way out of this except 1) a mother of all global financial crash, or 2) people’s revolutions worldwide, or 3) both. We’ve been taken for a ride for far too long IMO.

  10. Tribute to the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Soundtrack

    After we caught up with the FFVII remake recently, one thing that really stood out was the excellent score. It’s totally reimagined from the original 1997 game, with updated pieces and new ones too.

    For the excellent Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (2022), the second instalment in the remake series, there’s another fantastic neoclassical score. Very impressive stuff indeed, with old pieces merged with new concepts.

    The Glorious FFVII Rebirth Score

    As with Final Fantasy VII Intergrade’s new soundtrack, it’s a massively polished take on the original score by Japanese composer Nobuo Uematsu. For Rebirth, he wasn’t involved. Masashi Hamauzu and Mitsuto Suzuki took over the expansive new score.

    It’s a huge soundtrack. There’s about 40+ hours of gameplay in Rebirth, so there’s plenty of room for new and old pieces (there are 175 compositions). The above is a favourite from the original.

    However, below we have the Junon Region theme that has a propulsive quality to it. Hamauzu and Suzuki haven’t held back in this series, they go all out for the pomp and ceremony in grand fashion.

    There are plenty of new pieces, too, such as the Gongaga Region theme. It’s a jungle area in Rebirth, taken from the original FFVII where it’s a tiny little area. Here, it’s a dense and lively region of forest (it reminds us of the Grassland Groove music in DKC: Tropical Freeze).

    And then there’s the Cosmo Canyon piece, adapted from the original game.

    Special treat here, as there’s a live recording of this one with the FFVII Rebirth Orchestra world tour from back in September 2024. This performance was in Munich.

    But it’s the melancholic heart of the game we think that’s won so many fans over since 1997.

    Pieces like With a Heavy Heart capture the essence of it all. In FFVII, there’s a sense of the passage of time, the natural loss that brings with it, reflecting on the past, whilst considering the future.

    A fine example of melancholic nostalgia, then, which works perfectly alongside the core theme of desperate rebellion and environmental loss. The characters are fighting to save the planet, discover themselves, and all whilst dealing with considerable personal loss.

    ADDENDUM ALERT!!! Here’s the FFVII Rebirth Chillout Corner

    The piano and strings (plus, flute) version of Cosmo Canyon is all rather relaxing. Set as it is to Cloud Strife walking around the beautiful location.

    Away from that, fans have put together chillout compilation sup on YouTube. There are for study, focus, sleep, and ambience. Well worth a listen if you want to hear more of this soundtrack.

  11. Shostakovitch -- Symphony No.9
    youtu.be/YfZ3PGLD2YA?si=aeKx6n

    I'd never listened to this symphony before yesterday.

    What a treat this blend of the droll and the lyrical was! I particularly liked the use of the woodwinds.

    I'm also sadly reminded of how rich Russian culture can be, and how deeply it has been perverted by autocracy and aggression.
