I recorded this sound using my iPhone, with the app called AudioCopy. This is the sound of a toilet flushing, I chose this because this is an action we all do everyday and I think the sound of the water going down is intuiting.

Using the program "hydrogen" I used the drum machine to create a minimal techno beat. Minimal techno can be described as "rhythm and repetition instead of melody and linear progression. My goal was to create a raw sound that included drums, basslines, funky grooves and over all a heart-felt rhythmic techno beat. My track starts out at a steady medium pace and gets heavier and faster as it goes on.

For this track I used the application Ardour. Multiple different items were used to make this sound, including: my keys, a clapping my hands, my iphone ringtones, a necklace, and a snapping sound made by my fingers. The many sounds produced by all of these items makes this track unique and different than most because I combined the sounds together and reversed them. Enjoy!

For this track I used the program Super Collider IDE. I used the same 4 sounds and basically went back and forth with me, at the end I combined them all together to make one sound.

I chose to edit the song "Juicy" by Biggie Smalls. I used both of the programs ardour and supercollider. Over all I thought this track was hard to make, I had a hard time figuring out a good balance to edit the track without it being too fast or too slow.
