ORBITAL

A NEW WAY TO PRACTICE MUSIC.

ORBITAL is a holistic practice system for musicians. It helps artists build meaningful practice sessions by combining musical material, sound, method, and intention.

INTRODUCTION FILM

Why ORBITAL exists

A short film about the problem with traditional practice and the idea behind the ORBITAL Practice System.

THE PROBLEM

Practice is often fragmented.

Musicians often practice scales, patterns, sound, rhythm, repertoire and creativity as separate tasks. ORBITAL proposes a more connected way of thinking: practice as a living system.

THE ORBITAL PRACTICE SYSTEM

MATERIAL

The language of music. Scales, modes, triads, harmony, grooves and melodic sources.

SOUND

The way we express. Tone, articulation, dynamics, color and texture.

PRACTICE METHODS

The way we work. Structures, freedom, loops, focus and exploration.

MOOD / GOAL

The reason we practice. Intention, mindset, context and desired outcome.
