I have programmed a new AI and am currently working on modernizing and restructuring genres, topics, moods and tags. BPM will be replaced by “perceived speed”. Keys will be removed. The keyword search will also soon be extended to tags. There will also be an A.I. “Review” and a quality rating for each song. All music will soon be re-categorized. When I'm done with that, there will be new music again :)
Silent Movie 27
01.01.2024
A solo piano piece with a whimsical, slightly off-kilter feel, reminiscent of early cinema or a quirky cartoon soundtrack. Its playful melody creates a light, yet subtly unsettling atmosphere.

Arti’s Hit or Miss: Review
Okay, "Silent Movie 27"—that title certainly sets a specific expectation! It's immediately clear that the piece is aiming for that vintage, slightly off-kilter silent film accompaniment vibe. The solo piano performance is definitely the star here, and it carries a whimsical, almost improvisational feel. The melody has a playful quality, but there's a subtle dissonance that keeps it from being purely lighthearted. I'd say it borders on feeling a little unsettling. It makes it great.
From a composition standpoint, the track does a solid job of evoking that early cinema aesthetic. It's not trying to be a grand, sweeping orchestral score; instead, it focuses on a more intimate, character-driven sound. One thing that could be explored further is a bit more dynamic variation. The performance maintains a fairly consistent energy level throughout, and introducing some quieter, more introspective moments could really enhance the overall emotional impact, and make the 'stranger' parts more impactful.
Production-wise, the piano sounds clear and present, and the recording quality is certainly acceptable for production music use. It could benefit from a slightly warmer, more "aged" treatment – perhaps a touch of subtle saturation or vintage EQ – to really lean into that retro aesthetic. Imagine a slight crackle or the gentle hum of an old projector in the background... very subtle, of course, but with enough presence to add atmosphere.
In terms of media suitability, "Silent Movie 27" fits best in contexts requiring a quirky, nostalgic, or slightly unsettling atmosphere. I can see it working well in animation (think quirky cartoon shorts), theatrical productions, or even as background music for a comedic scene in a film or game that needs that touch of vintage weirdness. It’s not a track for every situation, but it has a unique character that could make it a valuable asset in the right project. The key, I think, is leaning into its eccentric qualities.
Overall, this piano piece shows potential. The overall performance is not bad, but not perfect. Some notes are played less fluidly, and it's not always perfectly on tempo. But, in the context of a silent movie score, this can be quite charming. It could be refined, but it is an interesting starting point.
