Project 5

I made a simple drum beat with bongos, snare, bass, claps, and clicks to go with this laid back spacey sounding tune. I used Sytrus to make the synths and the parts I came up use a Ionian Major Scale using C E and G mostly. I had a basic bass sounding part that was just played lower on the keyboard instead of an actual bass. At the end of the song I added a new part which pans back and forth and made a volume envelope to fade everything out at the end.

  1. The synth parts are very good. Nice use of panning too. Consider dropping your bass part an octave lower and voicing it in a different synth.
    I'm not crazy about the drums as they don't seem to support any kind of groove. The toms get in the way of the melodic synths and the delay on the kick creates a lack of clarity in the beat. The clap is a little overwhelming, and it's the only steady part of the rhythm

  2. Sorry about that last post. It was me- not Amy. I was signed into Google on her account by mistake.
