This is My Final track Project for Project and Portfolio I.Making the music was not hard but it was not all the way simple. I really had to pay attention on this track, especially considering I will be graded on it. I stuck to what I knew for music and applied all the things I learned in this course. From the programming a synth to harmonies and melodies. I really had a time.The meter of the song is a 4/4 with a tempo of 97 until it gets to bar 17 where then I changed it to 117. As far as the structure I tried to keep it simple and basic so that I did not overload myself and get confused on what I was doing. A simple back beat with a few extra kicks to give a little bounce. I allowed the bass to have a rhythm in its own little way but not to take the shine from the melody of the song.The song starts off in the key of C# Minor with a transition at bar 17 to C# Major. So for my chords in the first 16 bars are bars 1-4 C#m7 G#m C#m7 A6 A then for bars 5-8 I played B6 Emaj7 F#maj6 C#maj7 Bmaj7. Then I just repeated them for the next eight bars. The melody just plays on the notes of the scale C#m. Then comes the transition to track 17, but before we hit track 17 the last half of track 16 I converted the midi files to audio files so I could create a Vari-Fi type of effect. I had to create a fade on the end of the clips the create a slow down. Now comes bar 17 with the tempo change and new key. C# Major. Bars 17-20 C#maj7 F#maj7 B#7 A#m7. Then bars 21-24 C# F D#m G#. These eight bars were repeated to stretch out to 33 bars.Original sounds include two separate recordings I made with my microphone. First is me giving a little history in the first 16 bars and in the 17th bar I incorporated my moniker. I put effects on the first 16 bars recording. Eq, reverb, Pitch Shift just to help with my vocals.Now comes the mixing and good stuff. I added eq to almost all tracks. A compressor on both basses. Synth and original. For time based Processing I used the Chorus on the melody and the Ensemble on the harmony also on the melody as well. I panned several tracks so that everything was not centered.Hope you all enjoy the track.
