Dan Thomas - Prologue Playthrough
This is a playthrough of the first song from my debut album that I have been working on. I'll have more news on that soon, for now I hope you enjoy the video and the song.
My writing is heavily influenced by musical scores you'd hear in film, tv and video games. My favourite composer of all time has to be Nobuo Uematsu, the way he approaches melody has greatly influenced my writing style. That along with artists like Polyphia, Sithu Aye, Intervals, Plini and CHVRCHES is the way I'd describe the music I have been writing for my solo Project.
If anyone's interested in the gear and software I use to write these songs I'll list them below, may do in depth videos on the recording process in the future if people are interested.
