Fall Update on Intro to Electronic Music

This fall students learned how to multitrack, cut, paste and add effects to a recording of a Bach cello suite in Logic. These “Bach remixes” eventually made their public premiere at the Bach Marathon in November.

The class also got to work with CMW alum CJ Jimenez on a sound recreation workshop with the prompt “what are the first 5 things you heard this morning?” We then set them loose on the third floor to collect and create recordings to use in their sound collages.

Below are pictures from a workshop where the students were treated to music by local guitarist, Erik Carlson, AKA Area C. Erik demonstrated how his effects pedals worked and everyone got a chance to try them out.
