Two new ideas...

I’ve been writing music this week… here are a few rough ideas I’ve been working on:

Glacier Process by Chrisperren

This one is an extension on a “process composition” idea I posted a while ago, basically working with a defined set of notes, making new chords by moving them around in their octaves, and adding a new note every now and again to build the texture. I had the idea to extend this by continuing to use those notes in that order to generate other ideas, both rhythmic and harmonic. I kinda like how it’s coming together.

Invented Afternoons by Chrisperren

This one is kind of an attempt at making fun brainless rock from fairly mathematical ideas. I really liked it when I wrote it but I don’t know how I feel about it now. Could become a Maps song, but would need a bit of re-working I think.
