Hey Mario, I think you would be great starring in your very own "unreality show". You could compose the theme song, write the script, produce and direct, and do your own reviews. You could also be the president of your own fan club, which would consist of one fan, YOU! Since ,by your own admission, you don't need or want to care about anyone else, you could sit there in front of your TV with a big mirror behind so you could better relish all your reactions to your "very bizarre, beautiful, unique" compositions. You could title it "ME and MARIO". And make sure to include the episode where the psychotic builds a mansion in his mind and then moves in. Then the psychiatrist comes along an charges him rent. You could play all the parts AND compose the magnificent background music. It would be FANTASTIC.....EARTHSHAKING....MONUMENTAL...WOW!.........

I said I wanted to share these compositions in my head with others.  I will learn how to compose and eventually compose these songs just as how I hear them in my head.  If I just composed these songs for myself and nothing more, then that would be boring and a waste of my time.  I would just give up composing if that were the case.  I need my compositions out there.  I want others to recognize my style of composing even if they don't like it.  I know there will be some people out there who would like it and that is what matters to me.

So how far did you get today with learning to compose? Did you read any books or watch any videos?

It seems to me that if these songs already exist in your head, they're already composed.
What you need is to learn how to play an instrument(s) so you can get the songs on record.

Give Mario a break, it's tough to play an instrument in a straight jacket ....... except maybe a kazoo...........just kidding. I would really like to hear some of his music, just might surprise us all........

Oh, the staff he used had one instrument ... with 4 notes ... and maybe 6 measures!
 
He's never seen one for some operas with 29 staffs for various instruments! That one will teach him to compose ... a lot of manure!

Love it!  The point of post modernism  is to deconstruct  to the point of epileptic idiocy.  You have captured that in a provacative pastiche of a talking comb!  Do you have an agent?  I have a feeling my friend at MOMA will want to see this!

No.  This is just something I created when I was just having fun and playing around.

If you thought that was good, then the songs I hear in my head are FAR better than this.  I can hear whole new songs in my head by, for example, the musical artist Nicki Minaj.  These are songs that are just as good, just as catchy, and they sound just as professional and fully produced as any other of her songs you listen on youtube.  For now, that might come across to you as a bluff.  But I am in the process of learning to compose and I will hopefully make these songs a reality later in the future.  These songs I hear in my mind by Nicki Minaj don't convey her typical personality such as having fun, dancing, stripping, going to the clubs, etc.  They convey a whole new personality such as awesome transcended beings from higher dimensions.

I think I detect a distinct ambience that came from recording in a rubber room. Very ingenious.

It also sounds like Mario sang it through a Hannibal Lector leather and wire mask instead of a pop filter.

I can totally see that Nicki Minaj reference here (well not really see her, but you know.....in my head etc...). What are some of the production techniques/equipment (Mic's, software, plugins/fx etc...) you use to get these results?  


Have you thought about putting a medley of these two together as a remix project? That would be cool...

Are you seriously suggesting that it's possible to upload videos of you gargling gravel to YouTube and not at least get some downvotes?

It wasn't "gargled gravel" at all.  I depicted those characters quite well.
