Banshee (Patreon)

Got a request to do a piece of music for a banshee. As the story goes, a banshee shows up one day, wails, weeps, screams, and whatnot - and then comes back the next day to kill someone. I'm not sure exactly how that works. I don't think we've ever captured a banshee.

The wailing and screaming didn't sound all that fun to listen to, so instead I made a Caoineag song. It is like a banshee with better music. I still have to call it "Banshee". No one can pronounce or spell "Caoineag".

Construction:

The base drone is built off of the "Chip Tune Lead" in Alchemy (Logic X). It has that edgy crackling magic sort of vibe.

The vocal drones are from EastWest Symphonic Choirs (Bass, Tenor, and Soprano) all singing "mmmm"...

The boys' choir and altos have fainto countermelodies.

Cymbals and gongs are organic and spooky and help lead in and out the main melodic content.

The main content is a Uilleann Pipe along with a female vocalist (Patty from Realivox Ladies).
