Composición de un tema inédito utilizando los recursos musicales del tema “Eventually” del proyecto musical “Tame Impala” del compositor Kevin Parker.

Abstract

This study aims to compose an original song using the musical resources from the song Eventually by the Tame Impala project. To achieve this, its harmonic, melodic, rhythmic, and timbral elements were analyzed and applied to a new composition within the context of contemporary psychedelic pop. The research follows a qualitative approach, as it focuses on exploring the compositional and stylistic elements of the analyzed piece. Its scope is descriptive, aiming to identify, analyze, and apply the musical resources from Eventually in the creation of an original song. The methodology is based on a detailed analysis of the overall structure of the original track, the transcription of its rhythmic and harmonic patterns, and the application of these elements in the composition of the new piece. Data collection tools included a full transcription of the song, document analysis, review of audio and video recordings, and the use of music production software. The outcome of this research is the composition of “Casi un extranjero”, which features metric modulations in 6/4, syncopations, and harmonic anticipations. The instrumentation is based on a rock format, incorporating synthesizers and blending analog and digital elements. This study supports the idea that different stylistic tools from the analyzed genre can be adapted and adopted, providing valuable resources for musicians and producers involved in psychedelic pop creation.
