An original (partly improvised) composition, in E Minor. Mostly.
Yep, it's another bit of piano. Hope you enjoy. Apologies that it's a little... different than my usual video
Cheers to Michael Matat for telling me what visualiser he uses. Check out his channel; he's a much better pianist!

Apologies if this isn't for you... because I plan to do five more over the coming year, but I'll keep the piano stuff limited to that! At least, the standalone piano stuff...

Nice! This sounds very pretty. It reminds me of a few things that I can't really place and I love that. It would be awesome to see more of this type of stuff.

Your love of music is obvious, as is the work to get here. I've been following you for a long time here, and longer on the other channel(hope that's not as creepy as it sounds). And somehow this is a bit surprising to me. So... MAGIC!

@@AmbieJoi Haha thanks, honestly having people who have followed my stuff for a while is simply really cool. Not sure why you have but I'm certainly not complaining about it :D If it's surprise you're after, I guess I'll have to get out my old bassoon. I'm kidding I don't actually have a bassoon unfortunately

@AmbieJoi 3 жыл бұрын

Well, you are "all the things" for lack of a more eloquent explanation. Yes, that is vague. ("What are 'all the things'? Is that even possible?", he wonders) Anyway, I'm tired. Looking forward to more, always. And now also I'm disappointed about the nonexistent bassoon.

I love it! Kinda makes me want to try playing my piano again...

@dougajames 3 жыл бұрын

Just trying out different sounds and playing random stuff (most of which was awful) is how I got to the place where I can create what is at least I hope a passable tune, so trying stuff out and it being terrible is a great way to learn! That being said I understand it can be monotonous and I have the advantage of having played the piano for quite some time now.
