Here's a link to a .wav file that I made for my computer-generated sound class. The task was to record everyday sounds and turn it into music - I decided that limiting myself to a theme was a good way to help me keep my focus and so I ended up recording sound clips of various parts of my car. Everything you hear here is either a pure sound clip, or a sound clip that has been processed through a filter or two using code.
If playing the sound doesn't work in your browser (it's not working in mine), try downloading it and playing it off your computer. It's kinda big though, 40mb. Sorry about that. :P
And since I'm on the topic of music that I've worked on, the concept album that I've been directing and working on with The Mendicants is finally out!! It's called Roses In My Hand. I made a preview: Click here for the full version, or if that doesn't work ('cuz so far one friend's told me that the video didn't play properly) here's a smaller version that requires more squinting:
I directed the a cappella group last year and we spent the entire academic year working on it. I'm pretty pleased with the final product! 12 songs, all covers of a wide range of artists - there's Simon & Garfunkel, Huey Lewis & The News, Jason Mraz, Frankie Valli, Barenaked Ladies, Sublime, John Legend and even Coldplay. All a cappella, no instruments (with the exception of a cowbell in one song). Most of those drums are me. :D
CDs are US$15 a piece. Let me know if you'd like a copy!
Thanksgiving break next week. I'm actually tired from Fall Quarter already. The break should be good for me.
