Remixing Our Voices

February 13, 2012Aiden S, Blog, Brandon L, Jori Ketten, Liam H, Malachy H, Process, Robin Gilbert, what's newDavid Lee, Emily C, Sakiko Morisakiko

We started to work on a new project.

First, we sat in a circle and made a recording of our voices.

[audio:http://www.communitymusicworks.org/medialab/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ClassNoises.mp3|titles=ClassNoises]

Then we each took this recording to make new pieces, using LogicPro.

Here are the 6 directions for the piece that we made:

1. The length of the piece will be no shorter than 1 minute & no longer than 3 minutes

2. No use of pre-made (by someone else) sounds

3. Use at least 3 different sounds, including 1 new live recording

4. Make this piece “rhythm/beat oriented”

5. Include at least 1 peak point in the piece

6. Don’t loop everything, but repeat something

And here are the pieces!!!
