Description:
I started this song a while back to pay tribute to my new dog, Speckles, but never got too far with it, so I decided to try using Tune Toys' Muse-o-matic to help me compose it. I typed in speckles and it generated a midi file that I dragged into Logic. I assigned instruments to the 3 midi tracks that were created, piano, upright bass and xylophone. The notes were a sort of wacky chord sequence that didn't make sense, so I sort of dragged the notes as a group up or down, bar by bar, to create a set of chord changes that made sense in a conventional way, but the melody is all generated by muse-o-matic, other than that. I played acoustic and electric guitar to go along with this and came up with a galloping drum part that reminds me of the goofy puppy energy that Speckles has, and there you have it! It's way shorter than my usual song, but Speckles has a really short attention span! It's not highly experimental, but in terms of music composition, maybe it is. Check out Tunetoys for more fun with music generation! |
