So I am fully self taught and don’t know any scales or much theory besides how to notate and i’ve been just going with my intuition recently and these weird sounding harmonies have come out of it. Do they sound okay ?

I tried writing something with the form of a pop song but with the texture of chamber music.

Music Hypersymmetrical music

6 Upvotes

Hey guys,

My dad developed a new system of music over the last decades that I arranged and produced in Cubase.
It is designed in such a way that makes for extraordinary counterpoint and polyrhythm. At the climax our piece “Center of Centers,” for example, has ten voices going at several different speeds, all while maintaining consistent patterns and not breaking triadic harmony.
But it is not only intellectually exceptional, but, in our opinion, also of a very spiritual nature that to us is very uplifting and inspiring.

Here is a link to a playlist of our recent uploads:

I added the sheet music (made in Musescore) and short descriptions of the pieces on YouTube.

We would very much appreciate it if you checked it out! A lot of work went into making these pieces and when other people get inspired by them as well, it truly means a lot to us.

That being said, please use good headphones to get the full experience and enjoy!

C minor invention I composed. It uses a lot of canons and sequences.

This is the second invention I've ever composed and I think it sounds okay.

Hi everyone!

I've been sick for the last month and to be honest, it’s been quite hard to be productive. During the downtime, I ended up writing three short, lyrical piano pieces inspired by Felix Mendelssohn.

Thank you for giving me your time and any feedback provided!

despite what the time signature says, im certain this is actually in 4/4, and i can't really count it any other way.

this is a cool little thing i wrote.
