Happy Accidents

Description
This sort of sums up my music making experience so far. Lots of happy accidents that stick. This one sounds best with head phones, as the synth horns can sound a bit thin on computer speakers. Comments welcome!

I wish I could play the guitar...
Everything in this piece is Garage Band loops. I cut them up, alter a few notes here and there change the pitch and add filters. The fact that you think I'm playing makes me feel like I did a pretty good job at piecing it together. Now if I can just figure out how to make the horns sound better...

Thanks for the encouragement!

Rich. Great job piecing it together. It can be hard to get those horns right.

Could be a little more fluid.

But, overall nice recording. Are claps on GB loops?

Hand Claps
Hey thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. I'm teaching myself as a hobby. I'm not sure what you mean by "fluid". Are you saying that it's too different from one section to the next?

GB has sound effect files, which include audience applause. The hand clap was clipped from one of those sound files.
