Composing orchestral film music for a painting in Ableton Live // Art2Music Ep. 2

- I compose a song from scratch based on a painting. The music has Danny Elfman / Tim Burton vibes. It's like a single-frame movie soundtrack. Using Ableton Live as the DAW and a few of the orchestral live packs. I'm also using some softsynths like Repro-1 and Massive. #art2music

"I accidentally left the arpeggiator on........and it actually sounds pretty cool" - and THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is how music is made :) 10/10
Man, I love gear videos but your focus on raw creativity is incredibly refreshing.
thanks man
3/4 is so underappreciated, the waltzy feel really fit here
I also really love watching people trying to put vibrato on instruments by wiggling their finger, I do it too out of habit
truth brother...
Synth same I also wiggle my finger on the keys
+Synth The Arturia controller he uses supports MIDI aftertouch -- so wiggling your finger for vibrato works!
foljs what 😱
@@foljs5858 I meant wiggling left to right, not up and down
When he added that Glockenspiel, I got instant Edward Scissorhands vibe.
*Why is this guy so fascinating?*
*Why is what he does so refreshing?*
Because of this way bringing it... ;-) "Normal , wise and serene
Man this series is Gold!!! So glad that I found this channel.
Edit: as someone said in a previous vid, it'll be really cool if you make music for art from other eras; Renaissance, impressionism, surrealism, all that jazz!
It feels good to watch tutorials made by a normal, regular guy instead of someone doing want to get attention. As in.. no drama: Thanks. Good tutorial. Learned a lot!
That's bring back some 17th century memories from my childhood
damn how old are you
sounds very eerie. Fantastic!
The art almost came to life!! I just imagined her walking towards the woods! So beautifully haunting!!! 😮😮😮
Wow, what's a beautiful channel it is . Thank you for video
I love it, Glad to find your channel
I love the color grading for your video
Runescape + danny Elfman =👌
Bro, you're so good! I love what samples you are using!
awesome video bro. this would be perfect for if pixar made a movie about a hungarian circus coming to town and everyone gets magic powers for 3 days
So glad found this channel. Thanks for the video! Greetings from Indonesia.
Lovely tune, and nice paintings :) Like this series!
The fact that you did this whole song without charting a single note, blows my mind
Thank you thank you thank you!
you've deffinately inspired me man... such a simple, but endless idea to get mood of pictures !
Has a Danny Elfman feel to it
as soon as I heard the waltz styled piano playing I knew it fit the picture perfectly. definitely a Burton vibe for sure
Great to see a musician who understand the painting so thoroughly, good job
Superb 🤯
So glad i found this, this is literally educational art!
Just great man! I'm digging what you bring to this world.
Pure melody😖🤯So awesome⚡🤞💖Loved it.....👏👏👏👏
Your channel is pure gold man. Keep up the good work.
Seems like your are a trained classical musician...love your videos... I watch them...everytime I am blank ..when I don't have anything ideas....
Awesome! It‘s really really Awesome! Love the ideea. Looking forward for the next one. Keep them comming.
Great video and beautiful song!!I can picture a movie scene just looking the paiting and listening!
Dont know if it is in your plans, but would be nice a video about music composition. You always bring different songs and aproaches to achieve. I usually come up with a nice synth timbre or a loop, but at the end i can't turn into a full track.
Keep doing this great content in 2019!
+1
Thanks! I can certainly try.
Seeing you do vibrato on your midi keyboard makes me wish it was a Seaboard :D
Man you need a Roli Seaboard Blocks becouse you tried to make the vibrato with the keystep ♥️
Discophone_ Lmao I noticed that too, he does need the Roli Seaboard (even tho the Keystep ain’t that bad of a keyboard)
Keystep has aftertouch, which is not difficult to hook to vibrato.
Very nice :)
I love this idea. I did something like this once for a friend while I was in art school. Still one of my favorite pieces I've written.
This is fascinating and inspiring to watch. It's really helpful for me too as a person who is beginning working with DAWs. Thank you!
You are so great and deserve much more recognition!!
Amazing! I like this new series. Keep'em coming!
Terrific ! You’re so damn good composer !! 👍🏻
you could do a whole symphony concert out of it. I would listen to it
great peace of art! :D
I’m really loving this composition series - keep it up! :)
Ah cool ! I really appreciate the few comments about composition !! the relationship between the 2parts are really great !! the first part could be a good trap beat also :p cheers thank you for sharing !!
I love this series! I don’t remember how I even came across your channel but I love it 💜💙💚🧡
Superb interpretation! Nailed it! I might have tried some subtle timpani's in spots. I love to do these interpretational scores, they are great fun and valuable practice for me. Thanks, I quite enjoyed your video.
This was awesome as a musician this inspired me
I tried this for "Anne Boleyn" in Notion 6. Notion's a little limited, but the result was pretty fun.
Your layering and instrumentation are sooo good.
thanks!
Another great video
such an amazing talented guy you are
Love you sir.....great work
Before I read the description and got to 5 minutes, I said to myself, "This is very Danny Elfman". Haha, brilliant.
I've been really enjoying your channel for the past couple of months man
thanks!
amazing. i wish i could express my drawings through my music.
AWESOME MAN!
It seems almost effortless! Amazing, how you combine all those instruments in such a beautiful way. I would love to play a 90ies lucas arts adventure game with your music added!
I get Harry Potter vibes from your songs so much, it's awesome, they should contact you
Made me think about that ferris wheel in chernobyl, so I google abandoned amusement parks. Omg they are many!
That painting is really nice though, and the music of course. This track sounds to me like film music. A dark Christmas tale maybe. At least fairy tailish.
I think this project of yours is great. Both because of what it is, making music to imagery/art, but also sympathetic as you expose and promote these artists.
Ok, I'm changing my carreer now
Good sound
this thing sounds so much like don’t starve i love it
Dudes a fucking genius
this painting gives me Nier Automata vibes
2:49 the vibrato
had to Subscribe..man that's awesome .. appreciate your sequencing.progression for the 1st piano part pls..
If you have Native Instruments Komplete, you should have a harp in the Kontakt factory library. Really nice piece! This series has been really cool
Oh cool, thanks for the tip. I never really dug into the factory library, but I'll install it.
First: very good work!
Second: in my opinion, there is a little too much going on in the beginning. A little too less loneliness maybe. I know how hard it is to reduce though!
Third: you nailed all the feelings, but the happy middle section could, again, in my opinion, have been a little less obviously happy maybe.
Fourth: aye but still, very good work!
nice
gahh this is so refreshing. too much ableton content / tutorial work is just like. cookie cutter stock-sample pop / edm lol. I got into production as a result of composing first so seeing this kinda stuff is really what i need to improve my own workflow
For my imagination, the part at 4:50 is perfect for this picture.When I hear the piece at the end, I imagine parrallel to the picture a concert hall with 20 musicians.Less is more? what do you think?
how did u study making melodies and chords like that?
I never formally studied it, but a lot of the stuff I play is a combination of stuff I hear in my head and stuff I've heard before that subconsciously makes its way in. So I think listening to a lot of music helps.
“Haunting” ?
anyone have any advice for modulation and expression automation/envelopes workflow? Having trouble because clip automation and arrangement view automation are separated the way they are in ableton. It's so annoying to have to go to each midi clip's individual modulation automation to see/edit what I recorded. This workflow is slowing me down. It looks so much better and easier in Logic
I like this kind of sons. Do you have more of these? And where is the sporify link? The link in the description does not work
I love this. I live for the frission of composition, and am thankful to live during a time when you can have a whole orchestra at your fingertips. Are these all stock ableton sounds, or did you get the packs? I have Live 9 Suite and am just learning the basics.
hey man, would you plz suggest some me ideas as to how to know which instruments to choose while composing? or maybe do a video about it? This thing is driving me nuts, I never know which instruments or plugins suit my ideas better!
‘I don’t have a Harp arpeggiator so idk what I’m gonna do’ me 😭😭😭
Haha at 7:27 no one caught that he played pikons theme from dragon ball z?
I can’t help but think like a weird new age Alice in wonderland story where like of a girl that kind of starts as a normal looking carnival scene but slowly everyone around starts becoming wonky abnormal and strange looking and wildly everything becomes this alternate reality where the story of Alice begins and all the not so kid child like Alice begins her journey of odd obscure misfortune.
Maybe you can try an iOS synth for a future episode.
Another masterpiece! Nice artwork too. You must have had some classical training?
I had a few lessons earlier in life, but mostly I just listen to a lot of music and some of that stuff stays in my head.
For orchestra sounds which library do u use....
Beautiful! what midi controller is that?
What chourd progression are you using?
What camera is this brother?
Were do you take youre inspiration from??
For a harp, wouldn't the string-modeling ableton plug-in work better?
Ah true, dunno why that didn't even cross my mind lol
For a native german speaker it sounds so weird when you say: "glackenspiul" ^^
8:03
What musical scales you're using? You're very good at this kind of music
Combination of minor/major/diminished. But I don't think about scales too much, I'm more thinking about melodies.
It's really called "Glockenspiel" in english too? 😂 It's actually a german word.
in french also it is called that way :)
TIL it translates to "chimes" in english, cool.
Its Kellopeli, try to say that 😂
We also call it bells but that isn't nearly as interesting
Hey man, i am going to buy my first midi controller and I don't know which to choose the arturia keystep or minilab mkii. I dont really know the differences, please help
Why do I get kingdom heart vibes 😂
You are owsm
Please let me know all the gears you use.... please
You can see my gear here: kit.com/onceuponasynth
Sir where you belong from?
you have made horror music...
czcams.com/video/PiUj1JcU9iM/video.html sounds like a trap hip hop with percussion. not sure this relevant here. when the beat disappears imho better
