I wrote a theme for Never Let Me Go
"I keep thinking about this river somewhere, with the water moving really fast. And these two people in the water, trying to hold onto each other, holding on as hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart. That's how it is with us. It's a shame, Kath, because we've loved each other all our lives. But in the end, we can't stay together forever."
(From Chapter 23 of Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro)

I wrote a theme for Othello

"All my fond love thus do I blow to heaven. 'Tis gone. Arise, black vengeance, from thy hollow cell! Yield up, O love, thy crown and hearted throne To tyrannous hate! Swell, bosom, with thy fraught, For 'tis of aspics' tongues!" (From Act III, Scene iii of Shakespeare's Othello) When Othello, a general in the Venetian army, secretly marries Desdemona, the daughter of a senator, the stage is set...

"But the Count! Never did I imagine such wrath and fury, even to the demons of the pit. His eyes were positively blazing. The red light in them was lurid, as if the flames of hell-fire blazed behind them. His face was deathly pale, and the lines of it were hard like drawn wires; the thick eyebrows that met over the nose now seemed like a heaving bar of white-hot metal." (From Chapter 3 of Dracu...
I wrote a theme for Days at the Morisaki Bookshop
Просмотров 1853 месяца назад
"The shop was about thirty years old, but it looked like something from an earlier era. Through the glass doors of the little two-floor wooden building, you could see the books crammed together. 'The original shop was on Suzuran Street back in the Taishō era. Of course, it's gone now, so I guess this is sort of the second Morisaki Bookshop.' 'Wow.' 'Well, come in, come in.' My uncle practically...

"Then, reading him the rules Of flight, Daedalus fixed his arms with untried wings, And worked and warned while his old cheeks grew wet. With trembling hands, the father gave his son A kiss that would not be returned, then flew Ahead in fear. Just like a bird who guides A fledgling from its nest, he urged the boy To follow him and learn the fatal skill. [And flapped his wings and glanced back a...
I wrote a theme for a Wes Anderson Movie
Просмотров 1673 месяца назад
The Grand Budapest Hotel, The French Dispatch, Asteroid City, The Royal Tenenbaums, and Fantastic Mr. Fox are just some of the artistic and vibrant (and some of my favourite) stories that director Wes Anderson and his talented crew have brought to the screen. Many of these movies have featured music composed by Alexandre Desplat. Whether it's his uniquely-instrumented and playful themes in The ...

Illustration by abiah_art For well over 600 years, tales of an outlaw and master archer wearing hooded green robes who robs the rich to give to the poor have been at the pinnacle of English folklore. From his first mention in ballads and poems in the 14th Century right through to the countless television and movies productions of the 20th and 21st centuries, Robin Hood continues ...

"There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember. And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts. [...] There’s fennel for you, and columbines. There’s rue for you, and here’s some for me; we may call it herb of grace o’ Sundays. You must wear your rue with a difference. There’s a daisy. I would give you some violets, but they withered all when my father died. They say he made a g...

"Mars is a barren wasteland and I am completely alone here. I already knew that, of course. But there’s a difference between knowing it and really experiencing it." (From The Martian, by Andy Weir) Written as a series of log entries, The Martian tells the story of astronaut and botanist Mark Watney, who is stranded on Mars in 2035 after a storm forces the rest of the crew to evacuate and head h...
I wrote a theme for Sherlock Holmes
Просмотров 1307 месяцев назад
"In height he was rather over six feet, and so excessively lean that he seemed to be considerably taller. His eyes were sharp and piercing, save during those intervals of torpor to which I have alluded; and his thin, hawk-like nose gave his whole expression an air of alertness and decision. His chin, too, had the prominence and squareness which mark the man of determination. His hands were inva...

"'And I pray one prayer - I repeat it till my tongue stiffens - Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living; you said I killed you - haunt me, then! The murdered do haunt their murderers, I believe. I know that ghosts have wandered on earth. Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! Only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you!"' (From Chapter XVI of Wuthe...

The tale sees Theseus, an Athenian prince, travel to Crete to put an end to his land's debt of sacrifices to the trecherous King Minos.

Sooo sensual.
My favourtie one so far ❤
What a delicate, heartbreaking piece of music!
Hey, if you can see this, I want you to know that you are so talented. The story means so much to me, and I think your music really demonstrates your nuanced and deep understanding of the epic. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
I remember you had composed a theme for a Thousand and One Nights...was it deleted? :( I can't find it anymore
please write a theme for Romeo and Juliet
Here's a Romeo & Juliet theme I wrote last year: ruclips.net/video/1nerG3_MK5o/видео.htmlsi=0cv9oXDeahCKxZu4
This is amazing ❤
Thanks!
its actually really good
Thank you!
You could have told me this was a piece from a Wes Anderson movie and I would’ve believed you, no questions asked. Incredible piece
This is so emotive and powerful. Love this piece
This is such a beautiful piece
Really cool piece! One of my favourites so far ❤
I Othellove this ❤
Really beautiful. Nice work
Thank you!
round and round we go
I am back. Restarted the book, and wow, the theme adds so much depth to my experience of reading it. The music reminds me of a Ghibli adventure for some reason. Thank you for making this theme. :D
Will definitely be playing this while reading the book! Well done on this.
Thank you!
Out of this world 🌎 😉
I can imagine Icarus soaring through the clouds when i listek to this! ⛅️
Incredible!
Really cool piece! Very spooky. Love the artwork! 👻😈🧛🏻♂️🧛🏻
Amazing piece. Perfectly encapsulates the sinister theme of the novel! Very atmospheric 🧛♂️🦇
lol Toccata and Fugue in D minor has been his theme song since 1704 but ok
Very chilling, and may want to use this for my future Dracula film that I'm writing.
Spine chilling! I draculove it ❤
What a beautiful piece! ❤
I just read the book. My family and I just returned from a trip to Japan. I was searching to see if I could find the movie version of the book and came across your music. Lovely! Thank you! The trailer I found for it has music that sounds a lot like your song here. It sounds like you used “real,” non-digital instruments. Am I correct?
I'm glad you enjoyed the piece! There's a combination of real and digital instruments layered together in this piece.
Perfect ❤️❤️❤️
Very productive use of your time and energy being this creative.
E mm2wwqiiku .ßhk😮nnjjn .
Icarus's fall seems to be the most famous part of the story, but you've perfectly captured the majesty of his ascent!
I must say this is truly an excellent piece, I almost forgot it was fan-made! Once I realised I'd had it on repeat for about 20 minutes I decided that it's well worth a comment and sub lol
Thank you!
I would love to hear this piece in a Wes Anderson film! Maybe Jack does go to Italy after all…
What an epic piece! I feel transported to Sherwood Forest 🌲🌲🌲
It’s so good! I can see this in a Robin Hood movie or series
I like it a lot!
Glad to hear! Thank you
Great job🙌
Thank you!
Al inicio lo imaginé como el libro de "mujercitas" pero después comenzó a sonar bastante como el de "El cuadro de Dorian Gray". Fue bastante bueno. 👍
Unbelieveable touching...
Thanks for listening!
A beautiful musical composition, of admirable delicacy!!! And of an emotional depth that penetrates the soul... 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you!
lovely piece 🥰
I'd love to see an animated adaptation of Wuthering Heights with this eerie theme for Heathcliff and the amazing illustration! The soundtrack suits his character perfectly!
Great job! Could you maybe add in more kick; Ghibly tracks typically have a burst at the beginning. Then a reply, followed by a calm section. Usually there is a twist at the third quarter* With the same burst as a finale. *Howl has this explosion Dun Duuun Da Daa Tiiii; Kiki has this fast pased agitato tying it all together.
Great theme!
Brilliant! I can hear hints of Hans Zimmer in the opening chords, Granada in the chorus, and the BBC show in the modern drum-set. Nicely combined! 👏
Absolutely fire. Beowulf is Peak Masculinity.
As a ghibli fan this has truly lived up to my expectations, I cannot put words into how amazing this song is
Thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed the piece!
Excuse me!!!? What is this talent
I had a project on history class with this theme
