Steemit Open Mic Week 46: Original Song, "Waves"

in #openmic8 years ago

For this week's Open Mic, I decided to play a piano piece I wrote.


I called it Waves because I envisioned being on a sailboat and as it leaves the harbor, the waves increase in intensity and the wind causes the boat to go faster, rising and crashing over the waves.



Thanks to @luzcypher and @pfunk for heading up the #Openmic contest.

I always need more than one listening to evaluate (not just respond.)
It strikes me as americanized Impressionistic style, very apt for a soundtrack as it seems to follow a narrative line- I get that more than just ebb and flow of waves, it has a starting poit and goes somewhere else, perhaps not far, but elsewhere...
I'd use more pronounced dynamics (yeah, I know its a piano with its dynamic range) if I were to use this in a soundtrack, though, but that could easily happen in production or post-.

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Yes, I agree on the dynamics, in part I do think that some gets lost with the microphone in the camera...there was a lot of clipping, unfortunately. I should RTM to figure out how to adjust recording volume ;) . But a lame artist blames their equipment LOL

I like this song. I like how it wraps up, like if it were words it would be 'this is it, this is how it is, this is how it will always be'

Wow, that's deep @negativer. :)

Simply beautiful
