The ancient dragon that has long been slain by the heroes of our ancestors has been buried deep inside the fire caverns. At first sight, the caverns are a beautiful arrangement of bright colorful crystals, but deep inside the mountain, the heart of the dragon's evil still lives brightly, causing the inside to be molten and nearly uninhabitable.

i choose the treasure troves
the place where no one goes below
and bring up from the earth,
it's never kissed the sky before.

Yay! My first compo entry! :3
When I saw the pictures my mind immediately went to the dreary yet soothing gregorian like hum of "Mining Melancholy" so I decided to use that section of the song as my main theme with a very airy, mysterious feeling. Hope you like it :D

I wrote this song wearing absolutely no clothing, and I did it in less than 20 minutes, hence the extremely short length. That's what she said. But, at least I did something. I'm determined to keep this up. Ich liebe die Compo!

Imagine walking into a far away land, and suddenly greeted by the sight of a pleasant but unknown jungle filled with strange minerals of the rarest kind.

First thing I did was to make a one bar bass line using the 3x Osc. I sat there thinking, well what can I do to expand upon this... I KNOW! Twelve Bar Blues Pattern! (Basically four bars of the one chord, two of the four, two of the one, one bar of the five chord, one bar of the four chord, two bars of the one chord and repeat) This forms the chord progression of my entire song. Essentially it goes Dm, Dm, Dm, Dm, G, G, Dm, Dm, Am, G, Dm, Dm, repeat (m meaning minor). Then I added the chord comping by a rhodes like song. Then used the new Drumaxx to do the drums. I then added the default PoiZone wrapper to arp the chord progression as it went along. I then copy pasted twelve bars until I had about 2 1/2 minutes worth of accompaniment. I then added the PoiZone LED BandPass Brass ToTc as an instrument into the mix. I set the record function to record me improvising as the accompaniment played. I then moved everything over by four bars, put four of the bass lines in Dm at the beginning, copied the drum recording, sliced the first four bars, deleted the rest of the copy and placed that under the bass. I had to do a bit of automation recording there because the bass sounded better if I had its volume down a bit in the beginning. I have some effects on things like compression (on the drums), reverb on the melody synth (2nd PoiZone) and reverb on the drums. I had a lot of fun making this, so I hope you guys have fun listening to it.

This is a song by Muse. I just dubbed my crappy vocals on it and uploaded because I hate you.
