I'd love to do something like 100 angry monks, or a sword duel in the bamboo forest. I have my favorite little rpg's for my Wii and they have gorgeous ambient music THAT I WILL NOT LISTEN TO or play, for a while. :( Have to keep the head clean dontchaknow. Man, I miss Demon Blade. >:(<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'd sent the usual faxed request to the brain for some oriental style progressions, and the brain replied with a giant raspberry (although it was a rather pretty raspberry I have to say). So while doing some research I found this sweet article on pentatonic scales, and thought I'd share with you.<br />

It's not easy, maybe for some artists, but not being a classically trained musician I'm finding it quite challenging. And I would love to write the quintessentially Classic Conan muscles-bulging sword fight tune, but so far, it escapes me and I'm not sure if that will ever be my style. <br />

<a href="http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=98483" target="_blank">Arena Battle</a> makes me smile, although I'm not sure how it's going to be received. All I know is every time I play it, my boys go crazy and grab anything nearby (pillows, broomsticks, the poor cat) and go all kung fu fighting on each other. *wince* I guess that's good enough for me!<br />
