Welcome to Composition Sketchbook! An exploration into realtime composition, process, decision making, music playing and the compositional journey. I’m Joseph Buckler, a composer predominately making work for soundtracks and soundscapes. One thing that I’ve wanted to do for a while, is to take the concept of an artist’s sketchbook and use it to make a compositional sketchbook. A place where experimentation with composition can happen. A place where compositional process can be allowed to run free, and a place to create new music and sounds, in realtime.

    Composition Sketchbook: Episode 4, Misty Quantock Hills

    Hello! In this fourth episode, my composition sketchbook entry is based around a visit to the Quantock Hills, Somerset, in the mist. Here is a link to the Quantock Hills National Landscape website for those who'd also like to see some images, or would like some more information about the hills. https://www.quantockhills.com I should also note, I refer to a preset chain of plugins early on in the podcast - this preset was one that I made previously for other sound design purposes. For the full experience, please use headphones to listen.

    Composition Sketchbook: Episode 1, River

    Welcome to Composition Sketchbook! An exploration into realtime composition, process, decision making, music playing and the compositional journey. I’m Joseph Buckler, a composer predominately making work for soundtracks and soundscapes. One thing that I’ve wanted to do for a while, is to take the concept of an artist’s sketchbook and use it to make a compositional sketchbook. A place where experimentation with composition can happen. A place where compositional process can be allowed to run free, and a place to create new music and sounds, in realtime with a focus on the process and the decisions that lead to a sketch of a composition.  The concept of this podcast is to make new compositional sketches, in under an hour, that can be experienced as the process happens and unfolds.  In this first episode, my composition sketchbook entry is based around the sound exploration of a river, recorded in Stogumber, Somerset. I experiment with composing elements that can interact with the river. For the full experience, please use headphones to listen. If you’re interested in being a part of the sketchbook or collaborating on a composition that could feature, please email me on compositionsketchbook@josephbuckler.com I hope you enjoy the podcast!
