Working on The Silent Keys
I’ve got 2 variations of the same theme; one on piano and one on guitar. I used ChatGPT to throw around some ideas on expanding the progressions, but in the end I like the basic 3 chords. I made some notes for myself that I’d like to try in terms of recording, mixing, and orchestration.
Theme #1
- pulsing, huge, bassy chord pads (need Generation Loss and Thermae)
- start with octave Cs (two whole notes, like PF echoes) …maybe book end the piece with this?
- piano line as main theme (could the single piano notes be glitching out? getting lost…)
- cello line answering the main theme
- over trem violins
