When I first began this project I knew that I wanted to create sounds that you commonly hear in drum kits. Such sounds would be snares, hi hats, and kicks. I coded these sounds in super collider with the use of several different SynthDefs and applying pbinds to the SynthDefs that I had created. A couple other sounds that I incorporated into this final production were voices, and guitar strums. I used the vowel A for the voice. With the guitar, I had a sound with just one chord strumming and another where I have a chord being played. One last one that I used in the intro and the ending is a synthesizer, specifically LFPulse with the MouseY controlling. Lastly, I used a DAW, known as hydrogen, to sequence these sounds and have a relatively decent rhythm.
