Single - "Star Chimes" - New Eon Orchestra

I wasn't quite sure whether to stick this in Singles or Experimentals. I went with Singles so I could have a fancy little image in the background.

My parents gave me a keyboard for my 21st birthday, which is today (March 29). I can't get the official software to work with it, but that's fine with me--I only wanted to use it as an input device to record live in FL Studio, and it does that. And it does that well.

I'm still out of practice; I haven't played piano in many years. I'm still getting used to playing to a metronome--that was something I have never practiced before in my life. I made some progress in some other pieces, but became frustrated and decided to make a piece that was little more than me improvising live. That piece is this one, named "Star Chimes" because it's not really a melody, but more like the sound wind chimes make blowing in the wind in their carefully arranged chords. I deviated from this a little, especially when I threw in other instruments like the harp and bass drum.

All in all, I'm happy for the end result.

The image in the background is, for once, one of my own creations I made and arranged in GIMP. If you're feeling peaceful, watch the whole video--new stars will come out to shine. And the lamp will turn on as well.
