Forever - an EP by Doug Davis
'Forever' is an electronic-inspired EP album. The entire album was created using the iPhone App 'Music Studio' with some editing done in Reaper.
Creating the album was a very time consuming process, however it was something I've wanted to do for quite a while. The album was created entirely using Music Studio, which is a DAW/music creation software that requires note-by-note entry of the music. Since Music Studio is especially suited for electronic music, I decided to embrace that style and create an album that was purely electronic.
The hardest part of this process was being able to create a cohesive sound for all the songs, making sure that none of them sounded too different in style or texture. I accomplished this by using similar instrumentation for many of the songs, and by using and/or developing upon similar musical themes. Finally, the last challenge I faced when creating this album was ensuring the songs had a flow to them. I was able to make this happen by planning out an ‘emotional-arc’ to the album ahead of time, and then following through with that arc during the creation of the music.
