I thought I would share an assignment for a course I am following. It is a pretty general course that I have previously posted about and appears to emphasize the business aspects of the instructors business that he has built, with only a small portion actually about the topics that are highlighted in the title ‘Film, TV, and Video Game Music Composition and Production.

The section I am looking at now is talking about electronic music, but it does not really provide much instruction, more a few definitions and then some videos showing things that he has written and what he did to achieve it, but in a very loose, incomplete manner.

I have never done anything like this before, so don’t even know whether it sounds any good or achieves the purpose of the exercise.

I expect I should learn about it as it is another useful musical texture especially for scoring to film and so on. Hopefully I will get better at it with practice.

It is very simple, and not very interesting, just slapping together a few loops. I suppose I need to learn more about the genre and the idea of loops and structure of this type of composition. Maybe even listen to some so I know what it is supposed to sound like.

So here it is. No production, mixing, or effects were employed in this, or harmed in the process.

Any thoughts or advice anyone?

There is another assignment to do in a slightly different style, so watch out for that.

I apologize in advance, both for the ordeal I shall put you through now, and the next.
