A Fond Farewell (project 8) =(

First off, Id like to say that music tech this semester was pretty awesome, and I had very much fun making sick stuff on FL studios.
Anywhoo, this is my project 8 where we were supposed to play around with the sustain, release, attack, defense stuff or whatever in the world it was.. It started out with a biohazard line that sounded kinda gross, but not in a bad way. I messed around with an audio clip of the pitch and a little bit of the attack to make it so it started off sounding far away and then got "faster" in a way. After that, I discovered some premade synth sounds that I changed around the frequencies and attack/sustain/release/that other thing. I made some pretty, almost creepy sounding chords out of it, and I liked it. Then, It got to a point where they reached a peak, and I had it stop and go into this little piano line, that has a quiet gong sounding thing under it, which I again messed with the things mentioned above.
THEN I added drums that didn't fit at all, and a catchy synthy line of a synth I made on Sytrus. It was a last stitch, one and a half day effort, and I'm pretty sure it turned out at least decent for what I was going for.
with that, I hope you have a good rest of the year

DOOBSTEPP

Hola, all of my avid music listeners! Today, I have some dubstep for you. I'm not really a fan of dubstep, but im slowly learning to accept it as a type of music seeing as a majority of my friends enjoy force-feeding it down my throat. Because of this, my project might not even sound like dubstep. Anyways, here we go
I started off by trying to make what all good dubstep has; A sexxy wobble bass. When I was experimenting with it, I found this sound that sort of ate at your ears in a way, and was so low that it didn't even really sound like notes. Naturally, I decided to bass my whole song off of it. The Intro starts off softer and then progressively gets more and more intense with the drum patterns, which I originally tied to the pattern of the bass. After a long intro, and many days of me trying to figure out another wobble bass sound that actually sounded decent, I made a sort of Drop. It goes into a "synthy" lead with some nice wobble bass thats two square and one sine wave under it. Dont expect Skrillex or anything, but I don't think its too shabby. Eventually that all fades out into the beginning "ear-eating" part again, as I decided to go crazy with automation clips of volume on pretty much everything.
Enjoy!
