Love. What do you mean by recomposed?
@alexfxptАй бұрын
@@ZJProz well, since I wrote this new arrangement after the original composition (even when the original is an open structure experimental piece), we can consider it as a recomposing procedure, since I had to figure out the basic notes consonant with David vocal takes and build around it. I don’t take the easy road of dropping a vocal part over an instrumental track and call it a remix or whatever. I work really hard on each of the (4 until now) recompositions I did for him. I don’t get any profit from this. I do it out of much love and respect for his work and as a humble homage to him in life.

Thank you for this. It’s very powerful emotionally. David’s original was written over some dark, atonal improvisations - and part of David’s genius is his ability to find melody and beauty in such seemingly austere source material. I still love the original. But your reimagining of the song provides a counterpoint to that unforgiving darkness. It reminds me of that famous line of Leonard Cohen: “There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.”
@alexfxpt2 ай бұрын
Very much so. Thanks so much for your words. I do find all the beauty on the original versions but recomposing them does open new perspectives, despite the immense hard work on doing them. I hope I can finish doing all of the Manafon tracks (4 so far), but it’s a mammoth task I want to complete while we still have him alive. 🙏🏻

Really excellent work. I’m interested in your process. Are you using AI to extract the vocals from the original?
@alexfxpt3 ай бұрын
Thank you for your words. Re process: I don’t trust in AI to fully accomplish that sort of task, because it simply processes without understanding - pure mathematics - so I do it via frequency separation - a lot harder but much more rewarding in terms of the final product. There’s also the fact that the original material consists of voice and assorted noises and some occasional (tonal) instruments. I divide the original song in verses and place them alongside my music, first to work the voice timings/metrics of it and only after I go to work on the parts that need more absence of the original recorded noises. There are times I use the original noises on the recomposed versions. It’s hard work, trust me, but I do it gladly.
