With the new year, I wanted to get back to also focusing on my music, in addition to all of the method books and other lesson materials I had been previously posting. This month, I worked on a new version of my Berklee project “Hero Theme”. It was one of my first assignments that I posted, which was an exercise in using parallel harmony. When I originally did the assignment, we had to hand it in as a PDF of sheet music, since it was just an exercise, and not something where we needed to have a perfectly polished finished product. Even though I already posed it as-is, I always wanted to see how much better it would sound if I did a mockup of it in Logic using better sample libraries. Once I did that though, I started thinking of other little things that I could tweak here and there to make it even better. I ended up writing an intro, and also changed the orchestration a little in order to create more of a build. I hope you enjoy it!
