The Man in the woods

I was inspired again by the sounds of nature, I used the samples of voice of Nightingale in the fourth part of the woods to combine it with my very emotive(emotional) and melancholic musical theme. I composed it in the beginning of 2014. This week I was on the trip on Zibrica and I recorded mine own natural sounds that I will use for the last fifth part of the Woods meditative collection.

Here is the link for my song:
http://msb-forever.com/?msbp=tab,tab_list&id_tablature=38630
That version of Zobor had more than ten minutes in lenght and its
was orchestral intro, metal part, interlude, metal part, guitar solos and
orchestral outro.

In 2014 I have decided to take some parts from my original version and
compose new version of "symphony" in four movements (I. - Allegro, II. Andantino)

The Woods II. - The Keepers of The Scared Silence

The Woods II. - The Keepers of The Scared Silence 

 technical information:


Woods part II. come from my newer composition from 2009. As on the privous part of The Woods also here was saved 85% of original song. It begins with jazzy lick of the harp, what changed progressively to the catchy light chorus and string verse. The trend of this composition is very progressive which is not interesting for everybody. I express my style here - the atypical form of instrumental orchestral progressive ambient. Another similarity with previous part I. is the soundscape in the background. During the whole composition you can listen rainfall with some thunder...It expresses to me the summer storm in the woods...I had some experience with summer storm previous year. I add to this post my own photos from that mentioned summer 2013 hiking trip from over the Zobor woods.

The keepers of the sacred silence of the woods are the trees, and other living nature.

The Synesthesis - The Woods I. - The Unbound Mind, Winged Thoughts

The greenwood woods close to my home town (oak woods) - Zoborske lesy - spring 2013

 Technical information:

I composed the original structure of this composition on guitar in the summer 2006. Almost all parts were used for the Woods I. Some rhythms were modified to make song more relaxing and soft. The idea to combine my composition with the soundscape of the dawn in the woods in the spring come from my great passion for the nature.  

Song meaning: 
 My music presents something which we consider as the epic soundtrack to the beautiful walks in the embrace of the nature...in the musical synestheses that are mainly woods close my home(http://www.panoramio.com/user/7371477).
Green everywhere, the intensive smells, virginly fresh air, silence, the souls of the trees, the strong atmosphere...the infinite calm, everlasting energy...
The nature is my temple of the meditation and the place of revitalising torrents of pure energy.

Yeah, I really enjoy relaxing in the woods, very often to clear my mind. When I save some time for me, I like to left behind all the chaos and stress of the everyday life of my world. Me alone in the woods with the deafening silence in the winter or the great natural sounds in the other seasons, with all that tweets and bird symphonies and sonatas.Thats it..."the truly walnussy" (to prave orechove) as we Slovaks said...so I devoted my music for the woods my favourite place to lose myself and let my senses tied. There I let my thoughts get the wings, my mind become unbound.  

The Synesthesis - Introduction

The Synesthesis - The introduction

My Beginnings:



My name is Majo (officially Mario) and music was always my great passion. As the other musicians I express with my music my feelings, emotions, fantasies, moods, and other phenomenas of my internal world. I began to listen music naturally with no family influences. I started to percieve and reflect the eternal beauty of music very soon - already as a six year old kid. I discovered in music the fourth dimension of my identity, I rarely did the children activities without some music in the background, music was my guideman during my whole life. When child reflect sensitive the world of music, probably got the musical ear that is the most important condition to be the musician.But the child does not come and tell to parent, that he wants to visit some lessons of musical instrument.

Probably The Universe did not want me as the professional musician and save me from hours and hours of training abilities for instrument. I remember I listened music everyday when I came from the school. I got my first tape on seventh birthday and it was some eurodance from the beginning of the 90s:D My idol was Michael Jackson, he impressed me with his talent to sing and dance. Probably I had also my favourite toy but my favourite thing was my radio and taperecorder. My parents used to say when I did not listen to radio I certainly watched MTV. Music became my "obsession" and it "did not fade" to these days.

As teenager I began to discover by the pop and rock commercial music also alternative genres. After I started to listen metal I bought guitar and teach stuff by myself. Most of all I liked improvisation and to make up new riffs and themes.  In 2002 I discovered guitar composing software and I began to compose the mass of songs and I then I published my compositions to the special website for guitar composers in tablature format . To this day I have the folder with more than three hundred of complete songs, incomplete structures, themes and patterns.

I played for the short period in two rock/metal bands (Metathron, second untitled). During the study at university I had less time to compose, more I concentrated to practice guitar and drums in my spare time. Two years I visited the school where I got basic musical theory and some practical lessons. But classic chords songs was always waste of time and very boring for me. I still pay attention to improvisation playing e.g. directly to track from the player, like experiments with disharmony, I like chromatic playing and using odd time signatures. All these features plus virtuosity playing and influence from the classical and baroque music I found in death metal and jazz genres and subgenres.

I have very extensive musical taste. I will not mention all genres that I like. I do not listen only hip hop, rnb, trance, mediocre and profit aimed pop music, country and its similar subgenres. Actually I discover love for atmospheric ambient meditative and relax music and the records of the authentic sounds of nature(soundscapes, field recording of nature sounds).


I hope you like my music, in the future I prepare the Sonata for the oakwoods (Ouverture in Es mol - I. Allegro, II. Vivace, III. Presto).
 Symphonies with its movements called Zibrica (4 movements - Lento, Adagio, Andante, Allegro Assai) and Zobor (3 movements - Allegro, Andantino, Presto Furioso).
The composition collection The Woods will have five parts. The Woods I. - The Unbound Mind, Winged Thoughts is published yet. Second part will be titled as The Keeper of the Sacred Silence, third The Sensual Coalescence of Viva Aqua - The Embracement of the Souls - The Energy Transfer.

I will publish couple of shorts tracks (samples), which is not really complex compositions, all of them are approximately one minute long.

Enjoy my three compositions - The Illusion of Truth, Escape to the Embrace of Nature and The Wonders of the Night Sky.

I wish to all music lovers all the best in 2014!
