Bonus

Due to my confusion on Pitcher the song I was working on will not work with it. There for this is more of a bonus track per se. Comment if you'd like me to explain my work on this song if not work on the Grady rap starts now.

Progress

For the next project we have to use Pitcher. So far I've almost finished writing my song I just need to touch up some areas and then I'll start to begin on Pitcher. The song has a techno feel but as most of my songs do, it has a breakdown. It ends with one of the heaviest breakdowns I've written yet.

Modal Chord Project

For this project we had to use modal chord progressions. I started off by writing my chord progression using the Poizone channel with the ARP Wild Thing ToTc preset. My progression is just 1 2 3 in the key of B flat. I then matched the progression with a synth and Slayer. After that I decided to write my drum part. I wanted to keep it slow for the beginning. I also wrote my bass part. For the bass part I was inspired by the Holst song we are playing in band. I wanted 3 completely different sections with the same melody in each (except I didn't change the bass melody). After I wrote a clearer melody using Sytrus with the Fat preset. In the third section of the song for my modal chord progression I used the SYN PoizoneString preset in Poizone. For this my progression was 1 5 3 2. For the second section I left the modal chords out but at the end I brought back the arpeggio dropped an octave. For the 2nd section I wanted it to be more uplifting and fast. For the third I wanted to make it really slow. I then wanted to bring back the first section but use the drums from the second to keep it higher paced.
