This is a music score for silent film that I composed and performed a few years ago. This musical piece was written for a silent film movie for the young film composer contest for TCM. I didn’t win, but I am pleased with what I expressed and learned in the process of composing for a silent film. Written and performed by me :-), Nathan Goodman.

This electronic dance music track was recorded with inspirations of the rave and dance scene out of Detroit and Orlando in the mid 1990s. What makes Rave Song original to other electronic music is that it is performed as a live song. Each instrument when tracked was physically performed for every part, unlike most dance or electronic music which is looped based samples or midi written and recorded parts. Even the drums were recorded live on electric drum instruments and pads. The song features common techno dance instruments like synth and piano along with melodic phasing string pads and house percussive movements. Catch the groove and dance along.

This is going to be a guitar solo podcast focus today. We have an instrumental track uploaded to us from the Submit your music page on our website.
Instrumentals are often featured here at Drum Pop, I really enjoy them. This track could almost be a video game epic ending theme. It has electronic type rhythms with metallic riffs, and orchestra instrument samples. Something in the sounds of Mini Bosses. Also this next song kinda reminds me of say…Dragon Force almost. Wait for the guitar solo in the piece. Give it a chance, and wait for it, it is definitely worth hearing, and thats why I voted this one today. This guitar solo is almost something you would hear in Dream Theater. So here it is, uploaded by Armand, this is Skelectory – Theme 43. Next we have Vigilante by Forte. This is a hard rock or metal song from about 15 years ago. The clean sound and performance of the guitar is still one of my favorite guitar solos.

This podcast is unique because it is the first time we are including a song from our upload form at Drum Pop dot com. We chose this song because I like the message and there is not much hip hop on Drum Pop…there is electronic and dance but not rap or new hip hop, so it is a delight to play this track. I like the message of this song, it relates the saying of reap what you sow to our relationships and life’s choices. Tho its titled Harvest Season, its appropriate for this time of year because its seed sowing time.. I know my family and I, we just started some corn, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, watermelons, and we’re doing pumpkins this year too. A gardner plans and plants their seed according to their desired harvest. What that goal or need is. So what will you plant into your life? Here is Risk on da Disk with Harvest Season.
That was Risk on da Disk with their song Harvest Season. I liked the use of the guitar lead on that track. Next I chose to play this song by Rudderhead Lounge because even tho it is a different genre, I would classify it as fusion jazz – something similar to the sounds of Dave Mathews Band or Ben Folds Five, it has a similar beat and rhythmic feel. The lyrics also give strength to a struggle in relationship and trying to bind the wounds they may have caused one another. The writer, Joshua Clemons says in one line, “I’ve given my everything, but have not given up.” This next song is Feeling Naked by Rudderhead Lounge.
This was an Drum Pop podcast. Again, if you would like your song to be included in one of our podcasts, you can upload it on our website: www.drumpop.com/submit-your-music/
