I decided to make some music. I have some experience using a DAW (= Digital Audio Workstation) called Reaper, have used it to trace music (for potential piano covers) and other small audio editing, but I haven't made any actual music with it. Since I don't know what kind of music I want to make and haven't downloaded any samples (sounds), I took Reaper's build in synthesizer, in which you can generate sound from square, sawtooth, triangle and sinewaves with few settings: http://i.imgur.com/9Vo9ha0.png You can also layer multiple ReaSynths together into one instrument. For example, combining two sounds with slightly different pitch makes a cool chorus effect that is used in many sounds in this piece. A wide sounding stereo effects for specific a instrument works the same way: When the sounds are slightly different, you perceive them as different sounds coming around you instead of one sound coming from the front.
Reaper also had build in a very primitive synthesizer drum kit with 4 drums (2 of which are pretty much bass drums) with no tweaking possibilities. They weren't good at all but I decided to keep it simple: The end result has no added reverb or equalization, it's just pure combination of the 4 most basic synthetic sound waves.
The name is Epic Chip Adventure because it's chip tune and reminds me a bit of Zelda overworld theme (adventure game).Rachmaninov solo MOLTO CON FUOCO! - Second entry for #tulisinsoolo Instagram competitionskinkken2016-06-10 | Another entry for #tulisinsoolo (the most fiery solo) Instagram competition.

Original music: youtube.com/watch?v=JDUrQSIRgOoDark and peaceful piano improvisationskinkken2015-12-19 | I was testing Pianoteq 5 demo (a virtual piano software to be used with digital pianos and keyboards), did some improvisation and it turned out better than I first realized. The program is constantly saving playing history, so I saved it and here it is. In my opinion, it sounds VERY realistic.
Performed by me at home one year ago. This is slightly outdated version, the last chord in the sheet music is missing in the recording. I've got a new digital piano, but it will take a lot of time to get the piece in performable condition and I'm also playing other pieces so I'm making better recording not very soon.Heino Kaski: Yö meren rannalla (Night by the sea)skinkken2015-07-02 | MP3: drive.google.com/open?id=0B3J4hi2EEiX9cVhIdHBpZm1aYU0 (New file 5 October 2015 with better equalization)
I bought Roland F130R a few weeks ago. It's has very good touch and sound for the price, but in my opinion the sound is equalized badly. That's why I equalized it a bit afterwards. Result: good sound. UPDATE: I was quite noob using an EQ. I Uploaded new mp3 with better settings.Piano arrangement: First Steps Into Sunken Glades (Ori and the Blind forest)skinkken2015-04-27 | Note: This is played by computer and obviously doesn't sound as good as a human performance would. I don't know when I'd be playing this on actual piano.
This is a piano arrangement I made based on one of the original soundtracks in the game Ori and the Blind Forest (It's now one of the games on my "best game ever" category and I highly recommend it). This is one of my favourite soundtracks in the game, so I wanted to make a piano arrangement.
I don't own this composition. Original composer is Gareth Coker and the original soundtrack is here: youtube.com/watch?v=vw3gCqMgUCkIlkka Lohi: Impromptu in D minor No. 1 W2skinkken2014-06-16 | My second composition published previous year. In this recording I played in a student concert.
