Attempted Invention

By nikola on January 23, 2016 6:03 pm

This week's piece is short, but it was difficult to write! Bach-inspired harpsichord invention - definitely trying to flex some compositional muscles, but pretty light on the mixing.

Nice update. Real harpsichord?

nice composition, harpsichord is a nice change of scenery from the mostly electronic occasional rock we have here too

Pretty cool. I can feel the inspiration from his 8th invention.

Ha! Now I feel like writing some baroque stuff thanks to you big_smile

I want even more drama and emotion in the V I cadenzes! smile

Barroque's dope!!! Took me completely by surprise. I love this one smile

Thanks guys! @Jim Wood the harpsichord is sampled, from Kontakt - I wish I were good enough to perform/record these pieces!

Really nice!! Sounds inspired from F Major invention big_smile I definitely look forward to more

i wish i could do that

*sips tea*, how quaint. This is awesome. big_smile

Really cool idea and a nice way to build those muscles. You could have fooled me that it was a real harpsichord! I love that sound, I'm going to need to dust off my Bach records smile

Great trills and cadences, takes me back, very refreshing

If it ain't baroque, don't fix it.

ah cha cha cha cha.

Haha I love this! I sort of wish it was longer.
