| Well we finally got ourselves a tascam and a condenser mic and pop shield, so back to making more music. Yay! Now... A long while back a user by the name of AwesomeKoko1 said we should write theme songs for the ponies, and we happily agreed to, so without further ado, I present Rarity's Theme. Stepping out of our comfort zone and backing away from the rock for a moment to pursue some synthy sounds, when writing this song we figured what kind of music would Rarity be into and the answer was pretty obvious, classical music, which is where the strings came from. We had this scenario going around in our heads of Rarity asking Octavia and Lyra to play her some nice mellow classical music with her double bass, a string band and Lyra's harp, but shortly into the song, we join in with the guitar and drums, okay Rarity thinks it sounds okay no need to throw a fit, then as it progresses, DJ Pon-3 starts laying down some synths. Rarity obviously annoyed leaves but we continue to play. Strings and Synths definitely need to be mashed together more often, they sound really good together. We kept in a few lines from Art Of The Dress, to make it more recognisable as a theme which would fit Rarity, we also dropped the guitar, drums and synths and kept the strings and harp playing near the end to keep it elegant and close to classical music. If anything it sounds like a battle theme. Download at: soundcloud.com Lead lines from Art Of The Dress composed by Daniel Ingram Wallpaper by Megasweet |
