In Beat Cypher 1 the students are making short songs each week with varying restrictions. Our last two weeks are “mixtapes”, hence the restriction was a tempo. In this mixtape students have created pieces at two different tempos (88 and 142 BPM) voted on by the class. This year we had a unique smaller cohort including some invited guests. After a lot more punishing restrictions in prior weeks, this was a chance for the class to let loose with their favourite styles and techniques. They also got to choose the name of their outfit, so we present The Great Pocket Orchestra Collective.
