This is the sound scene assignment for my summer electronic music course. Made entirely from field recordings.

David Baxter Etude 1 And 2

This is the second etude completed for UCCS's summer electronic music composition course. Audio is taken from the 2016 presidential debates and Robert Muller's recent public address.

Etude 3 "Hindsight is 2020"

A piece made in less than an hour for a class. The prompt was to make 30 seconds of a spooky atmosphere, and I decided to try and capture a late night city aesthetic using rain effects from InspectorJ on Freesound and some virtual instruments.

Etude 4 Draft

This is my final piece for the 3 week summer intensive music course at UCCS. The prompt was to synthesize all of the previous etudes for the course while applying the additional prompt "listen to/with the environment", and I chose to focus on the tone and quality of our current political environment.
