conoct songs that border on parody. The goal of my creations is to evoke a grin from the digerati, while remaining entirely grokkable by listeners who are less familiar with the quoted material.
My sources of material are classical and traditional music, and utterances and soundbites by public figures. These are public domain and free of copyright, and so I can mess with them as much as I wish without any possible repercussions, save for cantankerous critics crying "bad taste" and "blasphemy".
I then fuse this material with electronic sounds and rhythms that belong in a club. I'm trying to reach the standards set by contemporary composers and producers of the dance/trance/house scene. Let's find out how close I can get...
I'm working on three projects:
Parodific stays close to well-known 'classics'.
Papal Trance exploits a few short soundbites by a well-known public figure.
A magnus opus, of which Mercury is the first part, where I reinterpret Beethoven's nine symphonies.
