In 2020, Andrew McGee & I came up with the idea to gather musicians from @musicweeklies.bsky.social to perform a song we'd written. As everything rolled around and the years have brought an even tougher world, I think it's time to give this #feelgood track another shout. #music #realmusicians

Time for a @musicweeklies.bsky.social discussion! (Inspired by my kamikaze composing technique while trying on the #FrozenTemple prompt) How do you approach structure of a piece? E.g. AABA schemes, verse-chorus schemes, typical chord progressions, random improv, autopilot...? #musicproduction

Here is day 4 of #Jamuary: stephaniemerchak.bandcamp.com/track/day-4-... The piece is based solely on 11 samples I recorded & processed using a mix of resonators, spectral effects, delays and reverb. You can also hear the samples as I originally recorded them. #experimentalmusic #Ambient #Horror

And here is day 3 of #Jamuary featuring vocals by @tinelinen.bsky.social It all started with a vocal improv that took 2 minutes to record. I then built a track around it. Hope you enjoy. stephaniemerchak.bandcamp.com/track/day-3-... #newmusic #electronic #vocals #experimental

🎉Track written for the #Whisky @musicweeklies.bsky.social challenge. No instruments where used, virtual or otherwise, only vocals (kindly provided by @tinelinen.bsky.social). All the beats and synth sounds were created by the means of #granularsynthesis using the recorded #vocals. #musicproduction

The year is coming to a close, so how about some #feelgood reflection? What's one thing you did this year that you're proud of having done? Mine is that I have almost beaten #LongCovid after 5 years, through gruelling pacing and slow progress. #boost #accomplishment #proudmoment
