Project 6


For the chord project i began the song with a very simple bass sequence using sytrus.  At the end of the sequence i added a buildup sound that proceeded a secondary bass line accompanied by the first.  Throughout this the chord sequence is slowly getting louder and louder until it finally dominates the sound.  The chords i used was my own recreation of Sandstorm by Darude.  I played this several times before having the separate sequences fade out and it ends with the first, simple, bass line accompanied with the sound i used for a build up.  Only the i modified the pitch and volume so it would fade away and create a nice ending.

Project 5


i based this song after the theme song of the movie Beverly Hills Cop, Axel F.  i learned how to play it on the piano and decided this would be a good project to use it.  i tried to make the main sequence sound like the original version which surprisingly wasn't far off the default noise.  but i made the bass line a sound similar to the electric 3 sound on sytrus then used the ending of the base line to fade out of the song.  during the song i also moved the main line up an octave to give the song some variations.

Project 4


to start of the song i have a kick beat that has a delay and reverberation effect that goes on for several measures then i added a clap with the same effects on the second beat. After that i led the kick speed up with a sped up synth explosion beside it. this built up the suspension for a good lead which i made using the piano roll on a bass setting with FL slayer.  after that faded out i put in a small synth sequence which faded out to reveal only the starting bass sequence again. this ended the song. i kind of am disappointed with the ending but i hope it wasnt bad enough to give it a bad grade.

Project 3


i once again started off the song with a drum beat which then built up to a strong sequence of a major phazor from FL Slayer with drums that i made match the beat of the phazor. but near the end of the phazor sequence i sped up the drums and made the pitch swing down then back up. this preceded the end of the phazor and i made a string of kick s that went all the way down in pitch to end the clip

Project 2


On this project i started off with a pretty generic drum beat that led up to a rhythm guitar that i composed using the chop tool in piano roll. i also added a bass guitar in the background to give the song more depth. at the end of the song i peeled away the guitar then the bass until it eventually was just the drum beat again, to end it i put in a quick rising kick beat and then a loud thump.
