Week 1B
This week focused at working with GarageBand.]
We started by using existing "Apple Loops" to create a short piece of music in about 5 minutes.
We could choose any loops that we liked, and add as many as we wanted.
Click on the soundcloud link below to hear the song - it's not a finished edit! Just very quickly put together.
We also worked on 'remixing' the existing song "As Doves Cry" and looked how it would fit in to an unit of work.
We were given different midi files from the song and then put them together to create our own remix of the song.
After this, we then added in our own drum beats that we created by using "musical typing" in GarageBand.
We looked at how we can export midi files ourselves that then can be used by our students in composition exercises.
