Progression Update
So far I have had the idea to create a musical composition of an audio track 3-5 minute duration in the genre of electric dance music popular genre 1990s, hard house.
Progression
So far I have done some initial research, expanding my knowledge.
Using the knowledge I have gain from research, I made a start. I have 42 seconds off composition.
I have found using FL Studios challenging however so far has been a success. I was struggling with how I would source the correct instrumentation but I found a way.
A free synthesiser called “Vital” downloadable online as a third party plug in for instrumentation.
I also downloaded some a cappella vocals from the artist Eminem as he is a major influence in my world of music.
Evaluation
I am confused and conflicted with my project far. Im happy I made a start on the composition however conflicted with self criticism. Im unsatisfied with it sonically therefore I need to develop further research and work heavily practically on this project.
Progression will show in blog posts to come…
