This is my final version "Rain Forest Samba Carnival", my Project A for the 'Survey of Music Technology" course from Georgia Tech  @ Coursera.  I was inspired by the sounds of a tropical rainforest and the beautiful authentic Brazilian samba instruments and rhythms. Most tracks are sound samples and short loops. The exceptions are:  the two guitars and the cavaquinho, which I played and recorded.  And the Bass and Snare (caixa)accents which are MIDI tracks. Enjoy!! And let me know what you like and don't like.

Funky Trumpet Jam - Preliminary Version of My Project B for the Survey of Music Technology

This mp3 was rendered through Reaper by means of a Python script. The script creates all of the tracks and settings and also includes the code for a  custom mini auto wah effect. The result is this audio where a rhythm section made up of guitar and bass sound files and a programmed drum pattern, accompany a trumpet soloist who plays a random new improvisation every time the script is executed.
