| Introduction | I am currently a second year student at Anglia Ruskin University studying creative music technology. I mostly compose electronically, however I often compose on the piano/violin/guitar to keep an understanding of orchestration and articulation and sound design for acoustic instruments. Working electronically means combining my knowledge of acoustic instruments, melodies, rhythm, harmonies etc, with sound design, live mixes, arrangement and production. My focus for after University is composing for film and digital media but also enjoy putting my recording skills to the test in studios so if you are interested in a musical collaboration or for just a relaxed musical jam, contact me via email: hannah_don_don2@hotmail.co.uk Some examples of my compositions and recordings are up on this blog, enjoy :) |
| Favorite music | "When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down "happy". They told me I didn’t understand the assignment. I told them they didn’t understand life." — John Lennon "You may go if you wish. But remember this: walk away now and you walk away from your crafts, your skills, your vocations; leaving the next generation with nothing but recycled, digitally-sampled techno-grooves, quasi-synth rhythms, pseudo-songs of violence-laden gangsta-rap, acid pop, and simpering, saccharine, soulless slush. Depart now and you forever separate yourselves from the vital American legacies of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Jimmy Reed, Memphis Slim, Blind Boy Fuller, Louie Jordon, Little Walter, Big Walter, Sonnyboy Williamson I and II, Otis Redding, Jackie Wilson, Elvis Presley, Lieber and Stoller, and Robert K. Weiss..'' - Elwood Blues |
