Symphony No. 1 – YouTube playlist
I finished the audio mixed in Dorico and added the music to YouTube. The music, image, and titles were created with the Movavi Video Editor. Each movement is a separate video, with the full symphony collected in a playlist.
The cover is a painting that I purchased back in late 2012 by Chris Strawbridge titled “Yoru (Night)”. It was the first abstraction in my collection and still one of my favorites.
Hotwax Trax, Asian exploitation cinema soundtracks
I ordered a copy of the movie Bad Girl Mako (Furyô shôjô Mako) (1971) [ IMDB ] from eBay and it came (as expected) as a DVD-R with a color printer cover using a low-res jpg of the movie poster. I’ve sourced most of the legit copies of pinky violence films I can find and just recently discovered fringe sites that sell copies of unavailable films ripped from who-knows-where. I’ve ordered several from a site called DVDLady which, considering the 30-45 day shipping estimate, seems to be non-US. The images from the site all look pretty pixellated too, so I’m expecting DVD-Rs when they arrive.

First part here. Second part here.
I had come across Samuel Andreyev‘s YouTube channel while spelunking modern performance videos. I found the video of his analysis of Ferneyhough’s String Trio while working on the first movement of my Symphony No. 1 and its ideas resonated with me. Just recently on Friday 19 Feb, he released an interview he did with Ferneyhough on the previous Wednesday (a week and a half prior). It’s an hour and 40 minutes, so I’ll be taking it in parts while listening to performances of the referenced music when available.
