Funeral Music For Halloween

[NOIRTRASH]

Music adds flow to your writing. The more frantic the action, the more beats per minute. Very few beats for funerals.

The other end of the beat spectrum. Adolescent sexual arousal.

The original 1911 Rite of Spring by Stravinsky. Give it a couple of minutes to erupt.

Music always helps and I have separate play lists for what I am writing.

If I'm working on something moody and depressing Springsteen's song the River is on a loop.

Right now I'm writing a violent angry piece and you cannot get better than this....a two hour Metallica playlist.

Just give the opening song a minute and you'll see how it can fuel that style.

So many of the bands had classical training, its obvious in the form of their music. I sat thru music theory with a kid rocker named David Muse who played guitar in Firefall, a 70s group. There were plenty of rockers in the class but one made it kiinda big time, and the rest played in bars.

I doubt I will ever get the hang of a ballet.
Very dramatic version of the music, though.

Its about movement thru space. Figure skating is the same. The movement is congruent (in rapport) with the scene. A writing scene strives to be congruent or in rapport.

In one sense every movie is a ballet or an opera. All performance art is choreographed.

Steve Reich made a whole school of music from African war drums. This is a sample.

Samuel Morse maybe never heard a war drum but his Morse Code is a rhythmic speech made from a tonal rhythm.

Some morse code a la ham radio. I'm a ham, KC4LJ. I hold an archaic Advanced license that no longer exists. KCLJ alerts the world I am an old Advanced operator. A century ago operators were known for their 'fists,' that is, telegraphy skill, and the worst were called 'hams.' Its an insult from the pro and military stations.

To my ears morse telegraphy sounds like distinct words. People who count dots and dashes are like kids who sound out words. The competent hear the words. Telegraphy is the soul of rhythm.

Note the presenter's distinctions of GENRE and CATEGORY. Genre is anomaly within category.

Try as I might, I've rarely managed to get able to understand Morse code.
I've been licensed since 1980 (as G8UYZ) and now hold M0UXB.

Code's utility is its application by light or sound when the power is off.

I rather like this "Best Percussion piece"

I've always thought Requiem by Ligeti was pretty creepy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhwWAciO6F4
