Ken W is trying to lead a more serene life in an agitated world.
Short-Term Goals Toward Reaching This — 3 weeks ago
- compose a fugue
- compose a motet
I would also like to compose a flute solo piece, probably with piano or harp accompaniment.

(version-1)
When i’m down and no one there beside me
Lord you always there for me
you sheltred me from storm
i’s so glad that you came into my life
and i’ll never be aone again
cause you besides me
lord i want to worship you
i gave my heart and all that that i am
(chorus)
Thank you lord,for saving my life
thank you lord,makin me whole
thank you,thank you lord
thank you, for lovin me
(Repeat Twice)
(Verse-2)
you gave me light when i’m in the dark
which gives my heart delight
and me your light be my guide
knowing you’ll lead me through, the way
and you give me strenght and hope
lord i praisse your name on amountian high
(Repeat Chorus twice)
Starting is hard, as with everything. I got the right software, a high quality midi synthesizer, a good external sound card and now I’m trying to get into using all of these.
Only decent songs came out untill now
Worth doing!
Most of them are on my MacIDOL page.
“Never Let Go”, “Maestra Discordia”, “Summoned”, “January Spring” and “Odd Quartet” use more traditional intrumentation.
“Introversy”, “See?”, and “Freelax” are compositionish, but electronic.
I want to come up with a some awesome music before I hear some electronic artist totally come out with something that sounds just like what I was thinking about composing.
I like to create things, especially music. I write down a lot of melody lines in my spare time but haven’t sat down to harmonize them with anything. So I have all of these fragments, dangling around reminding me of my own lack of resolve.
I’ve caught some interesting VH1/HDNet documentaries and interview shows that describe different artists/bands writing process. They have been eye opening and inspirational. At this point, I think I need to carve out time and just do this….and do it often. I need to write without my guitar, and focus more on the message I’m trying to convey, instead of the production or arrangement aesthetics. The stuff I love to listen to is sometimes so intricate and complex that I hold myself to that standard without figuring out what is truly my voice verses something I’m mirroring…..That has to stop. I need to get out all the ideas I can and have them documented….then filter through the pieces I want to keep. I tend to get inspired when I’m traveling, and I’ll be on the road for the next few weeks for work.
... and I want to continue doing it. I love it.
