4 Audio, 7 Midi tracks
Progress:Rough Draft
Since the last project was upbeat, I thought I would try something a little more mellow and minimal this week. With real audio, I took isolated vocals/instruments from The Police, Led Zeppelin, and James Brown to make the song. The Message in the Bottle verse didn't fit well, but ran out of time to tweak that more.
The drums are all various looping areas in James Brown's "I Got You (I Feel Good)." Other vocals are both from Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love." Effects come into play during 'the bridge' area that has the drum solo from the James Brown's "I Got You," where I altered/played the rhythms with the two sends. Then played with the sends on the '2nd chorus Led Zeppelin vocals.'
The vocals are not super smooth, but I actually like the effect it gives off. It was fun to beat match, warp, and make them fit as best I could together. All the songs are in E major I believe, that is part of why they would work together.

Well that explains everything. Very interesting

@Kurt Kleine, The vocals are warped, so there could be variations from the normal timing. Lol, the more I listen to this, the more it sounds like a hot mess. It was a fun experiment though =)

Very creative. Did you speed up the BPM on the vocals?

I had a brief bit of time to make a couple of tweaks; shorten some, add a little more variety, work on vocals slightly. Still need to work out those vocal bugs.

Thanks @MIchael Ostman, I think that is my favorite part too. I think my next edit of this will the middle and second half of the track and lose most of the beginning

@Ashley Bernard Thanks, that is encouraging to hear! Not polished or my best, but definitely learned a lot in playing around with the audio files.

@purple haze, I agree, I think this track is too long and too repetitive. After a few more listens, the vocals just don't really work. The result of only putting a few hours into it and rushing to turn it in. I'll take a swing at revamping it.

I am really new to this but it is a little too long for me. Otherwise it is pretty groovy as far as I can tell.

very cool Adam. great drum rolls and cymbal swirls in the middle. the ongoing melody throughout is pretty sweet.
