I used to make my own music back in the late 80s with a Casio CZ-101, a Yamaha DX7, a Roland TR-808, and a Tascam 4-track tape recorder. I did all my sequencing on a Commodore 64, which had just 64 KB of RAM. I forget the name of the DAW. My influences then were Jean-Michel Jarre, Enigma, Kraftwerk, and all of the great, and not so great, synthesizer bands that started something that just keeps on going under various names such as Trance, Electronica, House, and so on. I'm a big fan of uplifting, vocal trance, especially with female singers. My own music tends to be more of the Electronica variety, often with an EDM groove.

Progress:Rough Draft
I put this one together using only samples dragged in from my sample collection. About 4 hours of slicing, consolidating, repitching, and automating effects and it's ready for your consideration. It's nothing like my Assignment 1 but I hope you like it. Oh, and it sounds best with headphones.

Pretty sure it would have been a Loopmasters sample. Thanks :-)

I like, I used that female sample on one of my Soundcloud tracks. Wish I can remember what free pack I downloaded it from. But very cool atmosphere.

@John Adams: Not on Assignment 2, I don't. The requirements say, "Create a composition that contains:
at least four different tracks
at least two of which are Audio
at least two Audio or MIDI effects in addition to the default return tracks
at least three sections (Beginning/Middle/End)
Your music should have some breath and life in it so take that into account when you arrange your final version."

CodaMojo: Thanks. Me, too. As soon as I heard it I knew I wanted to use it somewhere. I also really like that phat filter-sweep instrument in the breakdown. I think I got both from some LoopMasters demo DVD on a music mag.

I raised the gain on the voices by 1 dB then reduced the gain on the Master track by 5 dB so it should sound better. And the waveform shown above looks much better than the last version, too.

Now complete and ready for submitting to Coursera

Nigel: If you look at the same track uploaded to Soundcloud, you'll see that the wave looks entirely different. I think Blend has over 'processed' my file.

Thanks, Tudor. She's saying "Do you think about me?" and the guy replies "Yeah, yeah, yeah". Thanks for your kind comments.
