Ideas behind the music


When the "two world" theme was revealed, I immediatly thought about creating a music with two differents time signatures and instrumentation. I was inspired by the touhou project music with "夜が降りてくる ~ Evening Star" (Night falls ~ Evening star) and "宇宙を飛ぶ不思議な巫女" (The mysterious shrine maiden flying through space).

The first world is the classical, romantic night of a lonely pierrot. The piano, strings, bells and accordion play in a gracious 3/4. The second world is the futuristic, technologic travel to the moon. Drums and electronics sounds play an energetic 5/4. The strings and drums ended up everywhere in the music, but I believe I should have used two different sets of each instead.

At first, the music switch normally between the two worlds. In the middle of the music, the piano and accordion jumps into the "futuristic" part. Then, bells and electronics sounds swap their respective parts. Finally, all classical and futuristic instruments join  for the climax, just before the looping section.

The "dream" part of the title is about the dreamy impression I feel concerning all the melodies, while the "quantic" part references the quantum superposition, the addition of differents states, which I link to the cohabitation of different worlds. The full title depict my wonderings concerning the look of images created by an eventual Deepdream project on quantum computers.
