Ok.. I just had an idea... I need about four-five other
music makers for it to work...

basically, we agree on a BPM, a scale (like.. d minor or
whatever), and on who does what... one to the drums, one to
the bass, one to the main melody, one to the..
accompagniement (sp?), and maybe one to peculiar sounds and
additions or a second melody-line...

we all make our separate parts based on the BPM and the
scale without hearing any of the other parts, and then, in
the end, we put them together...

of course, it could go both ways... it could be utter crap,
and it could be good... however, I have no doubt that
hearing the result could be interesting!

anyone up for it?

debateable!) good! that's two!

I'll have a go, you'll have to tell me what notes are in the

I guess for BPM, 150 would be good, don't you think? or..?

150 is fine. tell me what my role is and how long you want
me to make it.

Let it be known I don't follow keys though. Wouldnt know
what to do.

scale... just to make it sound more interesting,
let's make it #c minor?

#c #d e #f #g a h

just a suggestion, though... if anyone know of any scales
that sound interesting in other ways than just in their
name, suggest away!

there's probably something!

you never know...

brokephones: to follow the keys, just use the notes in any
succession you choose.. you can also harmonize (which means
that any notes you play at the same time as any of the other
notes which sounds fine probably works). We're probably
going to end up with some "sour" passages anyway, so...

minors basically sound "sad," while majors sound "happy."
There are also other types of scales, like "phrygian" and
"mixolydian," but I don't know the intervals for those...

I don't know what each of you do best.. just say that...

for me: I know I'm not any good at baselines (which is why
most of my songs lack such), but I'll take what's left after
everyone else chooses (it's all about being the first one!)

you can still do something, I think... I kind of want to do
it NOW, and yann_g has also logged off...

if it's good, we can probably make more too, so that
everyone who volounteered can participate!

I've started on the accompagniement!

16 measures
key of c# minor

I never take scales into consideration when doing my
melodies, I just play what sounds right. That means I will
do some percussion for this.

we can just export the wavs of our segments in our
respective apps then the ringleader (drunkenmasta) will mix
them down in a wav editor or something..

right dm?

ps- im in. I would like to do the drums.

then:

r40f: sounds/noises and doodles
drunken mastah: accompagniement
brokephones: drums and percussion

who wants main melody and who wants bass?

i can work with a bpm. i will do the rest by ear, unless you

oh and ive never had any kind of music training, I know what
150bpm / 4/4 is, but what is a measure exactly? the software
i use doesn't neccessarily measure "measures" -

how long will this thing be? <- that will help me figure it
out

know shit about scale and whatnot, i just spray my hands
over the keyboard till it sounds right.

yep.. whichever app you normally use is fine.. and I'll
probably mix it, but if anyone has a special skill in
mixing, they're welcome to it as I'm not too good at it...

actually, if the person who did the mixing didn't do
anything else, that would probably be best! then he could
mix and put all the stuff into system and cut and stuff
without any "hmm.. MY part should be up front!" heheh...

pomme: sorry.. the drums were taken, but maybe you want bass
or main melody?

i_x: maybe you can mix?

pomme: well.. I'm not sure about the english terms, and I
don't really have any musical training either, but...

I think we'll define a measure as bass-drum to bass drum
when it goes bd+hh hh sn+hh hh bd+hh, and that is probably
the same as a bar, but the english terms are a bit unclear
to me...

(hh = hihat, sn = snare, bd = bassdrum)
