In today's episode, I'm continuing what I started last week, working out "The Unicorn Theme" by Tangerine Dream from the Legend soundtrack. I worked out some of the basic notes last week, and this week I'm adding more as well as the left hand chords. Though not recorded in the podcast, while I was wrapping up the mixing of what I'd done, I remembered one of the other verses I'd forgotten. I did most of this in Bandlab, the DAW I've been working to learn this past fall. This ended up a great project to showcase the strength of a tool like this since I didn't need to rehearse the piece over and over until I could play it mistake-free like before. I could play and record little segments, one at a time, and essentially save my progress as I was going along. I may add to it in the coming weeks as I work out other parts of the theme, but I am pretty happy with what I managed to cobble together so far! This theme was definitely one of the influences behind the sound I was trying to create when making The Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, so it's actually long overdue that I finally try to figure out how to play it. I'm actually not sure why I didn't try before! Thanks for listening! ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream , the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD! It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp , Spotify , and YouTube Music . (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes and special editions of the album there as well.)
