for the Aliens: Fireteam Elite (2021) Contest hosted by Austin Wintory - youtu.be/ffBuy1vbW1A

The whole idea of this entry is centered around threes. From the typography used in this still seen the opening titles of Alien (1979), to the material Austin gave to use, to the form of this small piece, and through to the title.

Small nods in the interior section to Sarah Schachner's work for CS:GO. Her music pack, Kolibri [youtu.be/G2bMJMber5g], has some elements that I tried to assimilate and emulate just because they were cool.

If Austin or Dallas get this far in the description, thanks for your continued excellent work on everything you guys touch. I appreciate the opportunity and the shout-out/runner-up mention in the contest announcement video!

Thank you for listening!

Luke Nemitz 2024-04-22 | Marianne & Héloïse (after 'Portrait of a Lady on Fire')

film, Céline Sciamma
art, Hélène Delmaire
music, Luke Nemitz

"He chooses the memory of her. That's why he turns. He doesn't make the lover's choice, but the poet's."

Perhaps she was the one who said, “Turn around.”

“Retourne-toi!”

Edoras

Luke Nemitz 2024-04-20 | "I see a white stream that comes down from the snows", he said. "Where it issues from the shadow of the vale a green hill rises upon the east. A dike and mighty wall and thorny fence encircle it. Within there rise the roofs of houses; and in the midst, set upon a green terrace, there stands aloft a great hall of Men. And it seems to my eyes that it is thatched with gold. The light of it shines far over the land. Golden, too, are the posts of its doors."

A piece written for @RunarLundvall , who meticulously crafted a very agile Hardanger Fiddle for which this music is centered around.

Musical material adapted from Howard Shore's work on The Lord of the Rings films, directed by Peter Jackson.

Thanks for listening!

World War II Memorial (rain) | Washington, D.C. | B-roll footage 4K

Luke Nemitz 2023-09-07 | Some rainy B-roll footage of the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. captured for, and unused, the Omaha Beach and Spearhead 1944 mods for Arma 3 I had worked on in 2023.

They Fight to Let Justice Arise (Main Menu Theme for Omaha Beach Terrain) ft. Matthew Suckling, Tpt

Luke Nemitz 2023-09-01 | They Fight to Let Justice Arise
Main Menu Theme for Omaha Beach Terrain
by JNS Mods

In honor of those who fought at Omaha Beach on June 6, 1944

I was given the opportunity to write the main menu music for the "Omaha Beach" Terrain - a free mod for Arma 3 (which is required for its use) and for the recently released WWII Creator DLC: Spearhead 1944 (whose development team have provided a free workshop version of, that is also required to run the terrain).

The piece nods to and utilizes several idioms from composers whose work I adore. Many of their works have come to serve present day listeners as a sonic rallying flag marking the era of history from 1941-1945.

I had a wonderful end-cap to the project the evening of Friday, August 25 while visiting the WWII Memorial in Washington, DC where I live. There was an evening rain storm projected and I was reminded of the storms passing over the beach preceding the events that morning of June 6 in Normandy - it hit as I walked around the public space. Throughout the week I was humbled by the research and quotes I had been gleaning from to get into a reverent headspace for writing and it was quieting to visit the memorial that marked this operation, and the many others fought on all fronts in those years.

I am grateful towards Matthew Suckling for accepting to play principle trumpet on the solos throughout this work. We had worked together previously at our day jobs as baristas in DC and were excited to work together musically. His playing is effortless - and I can assure you that the range I had written for him is not easily made so. I am thankful for his collaboration in bringing this music to life.

Many words were spoken and written that morning and I'd like to read a small portion FDR's Prayer to the Nation of which the piece is titled from. He poetically brought the truth of the grimness of that morning whilst simultaneously bolstering the mission for those soldiers invading, and those waiting for them at home.

"They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and good will among all Thy people."
