The Rain Dance — Audio Journal: #5
Genre: Electronic
(12) Sounds Used: Piano, Strings, arpeggiated sounds (one created by me, the rest from a VST), Percussion (Latin — maracas, claves, cabasa, etc)
Learned & Notes: The Rain Dance is very “visual” — or at least I hope so. :D Everything in the instrumentation hopefully helps achieve the image of streaks of rain tickling the surface of a cement ground, or slashes of water pelting on your window. It’s hard to pinpoint what I’ve ‘learned’, since they’re all very subtle but equally important effects. (As a side note, it was pretty frustrating when I was crashing every minute. There was a 3~4 hour delay in completing and exporting the file.)
