Title: Not a Number: Everybody Must Share This Song On Facebook For No Reason
Post by: Not a Number on February 17, 2013, 03:09:14 pm
Track 3 of 6 for RPM Challenge 2013.
This time, I took a slightly different approach: I took my reference track, then did what I call "mapping", in that I wrote down all the different sections, and how many bars it would be until the next section (like "Low Pad 16 bars, Synth 8 bars, synth bring hihats 8 bars, etc.). Then, I went about creating my track using that alone, doing my best to not listen to the reference as much (so as not to, say, take the same melody). I still went back to it near the end, but it was still an interesting experiment. Whether or not I'd map out a track again, I don't know (although that said, I've already done that for a track on my main album).
And keeping with the Circle of Fifths concept, this one is based G# major, being in C Phrygian.
