As a composer, I dig the way the theme can vary according to the mood of the situations...like when Beav is in trouble or something

I know what you mean. That's a wild tune. I have my own unique variations of it in my head. This is actually what my mind does with all songs after I hear them a few times.

It's amusing the way some of those theme songs changed at the very end only, as the series progressed. I think to better project a feel, possibly, of the more modern time.

I suppose it might be uniquely amusing to me in that I was alive in those times, and Beaver in real life is only 5 years older than me. Funny how time changes perspective.

Hmmm .. no that's not right, time alone doesn't change one's perspective. I guess I should have simply said, funny how perspective changes throughout time.

A hobby of mine is to re-think the feel of a melody...
Bluegrass stairway to heaven
Smoke on the water as a country tune
The composer-in-a-box these days cannot compete with the real men of genius of the days of live content in movies or tv series...

Assuming this is true, what might this be attributed to, do you suppose? |

oh thats easy...human contact, interaction...the modern day composer, well most of them, lack others to feel the same emotions as they do so the energy level, or lack of, reflects in the work.

So does that mean that electronics is the culprit?

Well I guess I don't get the human contact and interaction then.

For example, I have several orchestral pieces...I could enter/play them into the pc but this takes time and it only involves my interpretation and has fairly strict timings...but the opus is still the opus
Now if I hand out the music to required musicians and conduct them we have an emotional gestalt interpreting my interpretations of melody and rhythm...no matter the vehicle the musician plays.
the music will have more human qualities, such as flaws and sway...
The heartbeat is the best metronome...
Not the best explanation and is only an opinion

Dolly Parton is hard for me to look at without cracking a smile.
