    This video made me realize some extremely crucial things. First of all - I absolutely adore how much you shit on Unison Audio for their marketing campaign, advertising basic utilities as game-changers. What I love the most though is the fact that you don't do it straight up - you use words and gestures that we instantenously recognize and link to them. Thank you for that. Now to get a bit more personal - With these videos you simply re-ignite my love and passion to music making. You make it look so simple, and to top it all off, you rub my taste the right way with your creations. I cannot tell you how much your works inspire me. Thank you for that as well. There are movies so good that they remind you why you love watching movies. You are the creator that reminds me why I love creating music.

    1 - “Pro-Level” will never be not funny 😁 2 - As I recall, the Baltic Strings were sourced from the Estonian Philharmonic Orchestra (or one of that crowd), which has often been the definitive performance ensemble for Arvo Pärt’s compositions. Another guy who has made more with less 😉 3 - I’ve thinking a lot about arrangement in general for years to where I probably should write my own treatise on the subject, much like how Ravel and Schoenberg did. =]

    AS you aired the first MOPRH video, you mentioned you'd be posting more in the future. Given your talents as a teacher, I'd sure be trilled to see more Sensel Morph content! I took your advice, looked harder and landed a MORPH. Thus far, despite adjustments I make in the latest version Sensel APP, I cannot seem to hold a finger still enough to maintain a constant tone (piano overlay). In other words, it's like I've got my pitch bend wheel working overtime. Additionally, a gliss of say, a fifth, sounds like I've slid 4 octaves, along with few harmonics of the original patch sound as I arrive at the landing key. I've had a panic attack or two, wherein I second guessed myself for not buying a short seaboard. Thanks!

    I just love what you did here - and always! I was thinking - how about melodic "tracing". So, in addition to all of this wonderful advice - might you also trce the contour of some of the notes that evolve from the textures to create a melodic idea that floats throughout this score? (almost reverse engineering the melody). When listen to the final product I hear that melody. Something subtle but that can then be used as a device to further the narrative I also understand that that is not always necessary if needed. As I said - I so much enjoy your thoughts. Your music is quite sensitive.

    the space between the notes, what isn't there, is a noted consideration in composition. experientially, the space between the notes is inhabited by the listener. my approach to composition is that, one doesn't know what that consists of. at least it leaves me more open ended about who i am as a listener :) (i'd leave the piano more monolithic like teh mountains, a lot of that texture stuff could sit way back.. or dropped in favor of switching teh piano to teh more populated flowy for a passage)
