Simplicity Itself ! May 30, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Many people who use a computer to produce their music will eventually find their progress hampered if they lack a working understanding of music theory.
We all know when something we've written 'doesn't sound quite right' but without knowledge of the principles underlying musical composition it can be difficult to pinpoint the exact reason why. All the books I've seen on the subject however are exclusively geared to the classical / academic musician, and such books can be heavy-going and hard to understand.
This comprehensive gem of a book addresses that gap in clear, accessible language, enabling everyone to improve their composition skills. The examples and short exercises given are easy and enjoyable to follow, and the illustrations - using modern composing software that will be familiar to readers - are excellent. The book also comes with a CD of interesting musical examples of information given in the text.
A real must-have for all aspiring computer musicians, whether college students or home producers.
