Latest:

Ephemera for playing in the background, in the gallery (currently uploading; 213MB .aif file to be burned to audio CD)

Instrumentals version of Disorder.

Semi-Final versions of music for films:

1. BloodTrails_semiFinal.mp3

2. UncoveringsSemiFinal.mp3

3. screamingWomenNewMix.mp3 (soundfiles of, literally, screaming women here: wet and dry)

4. tyingKnottingThicker.mp3

5. vinSuicide.mp3

A new element - - drummings, which can function as vamps between scenes or segues - - and can be mixed in with the exhibition ephemera:

Still to come: Blue Hammer Breakdowns (as in, chaos, decay, collapse setting in to the BH theme, not a duo banjo version).

Earlier:

Disorder Madrigal - complete: three vocal parts for iPod; text Soon: Garageband file (if you want to pop open the hood, i.e., read music notation):

An atmospheric version of some of the quartet passages, and another one.

incidental string quartet fragments, changes of scene, segues:

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Vocal Mixdowns, extremely wet reverb (cathedral). All these can be performed by the 4 crew live and/or mixed with the wet versions (except for robot one). Think of them as vocal halos for the films; obviously other sonic material will be mixed in as needed:

1. Intro, segue to BLOOD TRAILS (Humming, glissandi )- - WetVocals01.mp3;

2. UNCOVERSINGS (Vowel glides + glissandi )- - WetVocals02.mp3;

3. SCREAMING WOMEN (Glide to cluster, whoops) - - WetVocals03.mp3;

4. TYINGS AND KNOTTINGS (Rhythmic chanting) - - WetVocals04.mp3 ;

4b. VIN'S SUICIDE (Robots chanting) - - WetVocals04b.mp3; (dry version of this)

Score and Performance Parts for iPod to all of the above (except the robots one):

soprano, alto 1, alto 2, tenor 1, tenor 2, bass. Download your voice part, load onto iPod, wait for cue, sing along.

Blue Hammer Theme 2 - a bit more polished, BBC-esque. Like they hired a real orchestra for this one: blueTheme02.m4a

Methali - some Swahili texts: methaliSelections.rtf

Blue Hammer Theme Bump (0:15): blueHammer.m4a

Blue Hammer Theme with extended string bed (1:20): blueHammerExtended.m4a

Two Unobtrusive Instrumental Backgrounds (try against live action):

Extended String Bed by itself:echoes.mp3

Pizzicato and Solo Viola Bed: pizzBackgroundViola.mp3

Madrigal - first draft, lively canzonetta style, three parts

(each load to their iPod, give signal to start, repeat if desired):

draft-madrigalA3.zip(36 seconds, first two stanzas)

ne plus ultra generica - - a possible vocal DIY background:

and the individual performer parts (SATB - can include multiple performers per part):

generica_soprano.zip generica_alto.zip generica_tenor.zip and generica_bass.zip

So, this might be cued to happen during the green patches, along with some other ambiences:

Illustrator source file if you want to edit further: BlueHammerMapIllustrator.zip - - not sure how long on-air or film clips last.

New material - - no identifiers - make comments on any you like (Sorry, these will download to your desktop, but they're smaller in size and actually may sound better than mp3's.)
