Goal at start 3/31:

Push limits of what I can think about rhythmically. Start with sound selection and try to get a sense of what rhythmic qualities could work with that sound. Tackle melody creation with an emphasis on rhythm. Maybe try a bpm above 150.

End notes 4/2:

I made an unusual discovery with this one. I was trying to replicate the kick drum pattern in a reference song and kept pushing the bpm higher and higher trying to get the tempo right. I was past 180 when I opted to go “halftime” and dropped it to 100 bpm then kept pushing it up until I finally got it right at 110. I preceded to compose this song in “halftime” but had to use FL studio’s note chopping tool to make 16th notes. Does this mean I should be working with bpms well north of 200? Tempo is something I always struggle with and this might be a clue as to why. I intended to investigate this further next week, but it would seem if I want to make the best use of FL studio’s piano roll I’ll need to use 220 where I might otherwise use 110.

Action plan for next week:

When setting the kick drum, experiment with bpms above 200.

“Heirs to the Infinite Sun / The Day We Outran the Void” is a cinematic chapter in Interstellar Soundscapes—a story of power, destiny, and escape from nothingness.

This piece is part of a larger album I’m creating for my band, Interstellar Soundscapes—a journey through space, sound, and discovery. Lately, I’ve been in the studio 3–4 times a week, working with different artists—producing, recording live instruments, and learning something new from every session. All of that energy, growth, and collaboration is being poured directly into this project.

This song is one of many stories in the album. It follows Interstellar, a group of celestial travelers who are pulled into a collapsing void—an ancient black hole that has consumed entire civilizations. Deep within it, they discover a hidden world built around the worship of an eternal star: the Infinite Sun—a source of light that cannot be extinguished.

Legend speaks of chosen beings—the Heirs—who will one day wield this sun and guide the lost out of darkness.

When the travelers come into contact with the star, they awaken something within themselves. But taking the sun comes at a cost—its absence destabilizes the void, triggering collapse. The darkness begins to chase them.

What follows is a desperate, radiant escape—light against gravity, hope against oblivion.

As I create this, I can already see the vision clearly—my band traveling through space, discovering unseen planets, saving civilizations, searching not only for the source of all life…

but the source of music itself.

This piece blends high-energy jazz fusion, cinematic orchestration, and explosive sound design to capture the moment we realized—

we were never meant to survive the void—

we were meant to outrun it.

Yours truly,

Xavier Maximus Clark

Damn, I missed two weeks in the row. I was about to upload last week and it completely went out of my mind to do so!

I'm coming back with this weird ass funky groove I made, perhaps a bit psychedelic rock-ishhhh. I have no clue! Enjoy!

Recorded some guitar loops in oooo vst by infinite digits, dragged these loops into ppooll, clicks are not accidental, merzbow type ending somehow is, but sometimes you gotta go with the flow.
