wb8_Falling Together

This time we are working with samples from the fourth 20 minutes of Night of the Living Dead. This is the part of the movie where all their plans start to fall apart. The track ended up more meditative than anything else, picking up a saxophone sample (one of the few (only one?) I've heard so far) and building around the uniqueness of that sound.

Really enjoying the moods you’re pulling together and the clips you're finding. That main little melodic motif you found is a great theme to hang the track around.

Some really awesome sounds here, but that plucked thing is my favorite!

very cool melody! some kinda indian scale ?!?!

It has been a lot of fun working this way -- at first it feels really constrained, but turns out there is a lot you can do with the movie samples. The hard part is actually deciding what to let go of. I end up using only a fraction of the sounds I wanted to.

Me, too! Kind of put it together by happy accident.

Sounds like it could be, right? I wish I could say it was intentional, and maybe it was influenced by some music I was listening to at the time, but really it's the result of playing around with the glide command.
