[/size] [size=4]Nice, thoughtful piece. It's probably down to my lack of culture, but I get a feeling of 'Terminator' from the theme (take that as a compliment, of course...). There's a certain serenity, with more than a hint of underlying menace (or power in reserve...). Very appropriate. Another quality work.[/size] [size=4]Now that I come to think of it, it's rare to hear you stray into the murky depths of grunge rock'n'roll. Hmm...

Bilbo Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I don't hear Rock music really, Dad. I started w. NWOBHM but never wrote anything back then. I am studying composition and try to use what I am learning but there is the whole thing about actually PLAYING a piece that limits my options with the Composition Challenges. I learn a little more each time, tho'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alittlebitrobot Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Robots! I wish I'd found out about this earlier. I'm going to be really busy so I only had yesterday and today to get something done for this. I have immense definciencies in mixing and mastering but it was loads of fun. I'd like to say I'll improve with next months but I'm going away, so.... December? If there's going to be a December one, I'm in.
