A melody is short. Melody can be played with chores together on the piano to sound like 2 instruments the same time. Melody has a unique rhythm as well. ]]> 2022-08-31 01:16:50 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2277022563 4 chord songs 1 sep 2022 cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2278452213 What is going to be the aim of this unit? 
The aim of this unit is to understand what 4 chord songs are melody and improvisation. The aim is to develop one of my experiments, and by the end of the unit we will perform/presenting to the class. 

What is a melody?
Melody: A melody is a progression of note playing one after the other. A melody is short. Melody can be played with chores together on the piano to sound like 2 instruments the same time. Melody has a unique rhythm as well 

What is improvisation? 
Improvisation: Improvisation is when you play something with e.g. back in track c major, or you are improvising jazz. Mostly improvisation is improvising/freestyle, create something special and new. Improvise with the chords in the back in track. ]]> 2022-09-01 00:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2278452213 31 August 2022 Exploring With Kaela & Ezha cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2282677174 I messed around with some back in track Fm chords with my guitar, and played some random songs with Kaela. Then afterwards all three of us played around with back in track fm chords and tried something out. ]]> 2022-09-05 06:32:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2282677174 5 sep 2022 A Heart and Soul ` cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2282681484 Today i played around chords with Kaela & Gaby. we jammed some different songs including a heart and soul. It was nice.]]> 2022-09-05 06:36:27 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2282681484 15 sep 2022 finding a melody cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2297268813 Today i decided to choose a song to mess around with. 
i have a few songs in mind : Bruno Mars "Locked out of heaven" , "Leave the door open" , "Marry You" , "Smoking out the window".

i chose these songs because it has a nice melody and rhythm in these songs. It sort of has a melody just jumpy and will lighted your day up. Bruno mars has just a good jumpy vibe with the melody in his songs, and its like levitating and it helps your mood alot. ]]> 2022-09-15 00:38:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2297268813 22 sep Making songs cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2312795048 Finally, i chose "locked out of heaven" by Bruno Mars. I will be messing around with the guitar track and messing around with it. 

At the end of this class, i had created a D minor scale in the guitar track, but this is hard because this song is already a masterpiece. ]]> 2022-09-26 01:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2312795048 29 Sep Process Journal Review & Practice cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2318409113 today i worked on my procces journal and my slides in slide show. ]]> 2022-09-29 00:14:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2318409113 10 Oct sound trap messing around cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2334355798 today i have gotten on sound trap and messed around with the rhythm of the beats.

I'm not sure the chords I chose using the pentatonic scale didn't fit the structure of the original song too well. The rhythm I ended up using also felt "out of time" - I found it very difficult to base my song so close to the original because my ideas didn't right as they were different.
The changes I ended up making included distortion - which helped the timbre balance out a bit and covered the inconsistencies in timing a bit.]]> 2022-11-07 06:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2372550494 Nov 9 cyruscheung2 https://padlet.com/cyruscheung2/fli8c2iwysch4qmv/wish/2376089117
  • What instrument(s) will you need? What resources will you need?
    • - I will need a microphone and a bass. maybe the guitar is a beat of drums. just a beat to be on time with. 
    • List and link the songs you are thinking of using to cover - choose one!
    - Bruno Mars- Talking to the Moon 
    - Green Day- Basket Case
    - some sad songs into a rock pop song. 
    - I think I'll be doing Green Day (Basket Case) into a Frank Sinatra thing.
    • What is the style of music?
    Melody is one of the strongest things that change the style of music.
