Project Orin
4 years ago
Orin ( Yoruba ) = Music
After having viewed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVME_l4IwII a few times, I found that I agree for big parts with the conclusion that music has gotten more boring.
True, there are still pieces that stir me, no worry!
I like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jH1RNk8954Q but mostly because I can use the song as soundtrack for a head-cinema with doggygirls having a party and pulling the barkeep from behind the counter.
Or take http://ia802608.us.archive.org/17/i.....ode64Remix.mp3 which, basically, is a piece of music a travelling group of canines and humans train and perform on their way through the Tau Ceti system, their lead singer with the rough voice being a 1st generation uplift, a near-feral canine.
But think of what human voices alone can do:

Well, I added a now project into my tree of life: Project Orin
A small project, as it is at least realistically implementable in the coming years.
I want to have a piece of music for each of the groups in "Welcome to Valhalla", and each should be made with at least 5 instruments ( even when they're just from a synthesizer ) and they shall have loud parts as well as quiet parts.
In short I need input on musicians from the furry fandom that are, ahem, affordable, will gladly take beginners. The technical guideline is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVME_l4IwII .
The problems I can tell already now:
With the exception of the doggygirls, there's nothing that'll resemble techno, pop or rock or metal.
Variety: With the exception of the different felines ( snowleoaprds, lions, tigers ), all groups will have 5 different instruments.
Much freedom in the work ( i.e., I have no fucking idea about music ).
The advantages I can also say:
I think I am known as a good customer. If unsure, ask the artists I commissioned so far.
Much Freedom in the work.
In the comments, please throw the names of musicians you know at me. I'll contact them as I find the time.
Background:
I enjoy music such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kq59rEVWQNI much more than any of the above. This could be a very deeply voiced fennekim or rather tigers singing a fennekim traditional folk song.
The white tigers, who were bereft of their old culture by all being dumped out of the last refuge of their species at the time of being weaned, made their own one. Scratch the music, but think of the shaggily furred giants sitting in the volcanically warmed valley between mountains of eternal ice, looking up to the stars and telling themselves stories of where the sun and moon go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jku90o0K0EI
Or the Town Consorts, the zebra males of Tehuioy, singing together for sunrise and sunset from their high tower in the Princess' Palace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uj8h4SCsnE
Or the snowleopards stranded with the humans and canines in the Asgard habitats. Their singing voices are .... one of a kind. In human cultures seldomly utilized, for the 'pards it is normal to sing with "The other Voice"": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPN4ImIoVm0
Or think of the zebra mares of Sultanates. With the youngest with the highest voice leading the singing during the cutting of the grass ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFAfWH_CKVw )
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQSYo_pC-QA Now replace the human ladies with doggygirls and snowleopardesses and leave the single human male, and you have a normal fitness class as you find it in most schools in the Asgard Habitats.
The dreams of a Habitats AC have no music... But they are nonetheless vibrant and, for the dreams of a machine, very special, as they reiterate and reinforce the goals, morality, desires and the complexities needed to cope with biological life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDPGohgpaLc
Or, how about a group of fenwa danceresses making their acrobatic dance performance, using the fog emerging from the artifical lake to dance with the smoke and form it into partners, lovers and enemies with their motions, their silks and the play of light and shadows? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d3C3IfUd60
