You know how I wrote that song that turned into E1M1? Now all my songs keep turning into BWV 871. Seriously, I’ve had this specific problem with two or three WIPs so far. I mean, it’s not deliberate, but it’s like the melody I’m trying to write just leads into it somehow. I think it sounds good, but I want to not do that, mostly because I’m not sure how far I can take it before I need to credit Bach as a co-composer. Even though Bach’s entire catalogue is public domain, I’m pretty sure that would effect my potential royalties.
As an aside, I tend to think of my genre as electro-classical, but I think this fits the bill much better. Mostly because it’s a synthwave remix of actual classical music.
