L3 UNIT 7: Preparing for specialist study


 


Podcast name: Fleetwood Mac - Go your own way
Topic: The song "go your own way"
Who did it feature? Hrishikesh Hirway and Lindsay Buckingham
What did I enjoy about the podcast? I enjoyed listening to Lindsay Buckingham talk about his experiences in the band. I liked how he broke down every instrument in fine detail
Was there anything I didn't enjoy? there wasn't much to be honest, a very solid listen
What did I learn from the podcast? I learned about what Fleetwood Mac was like during the creation of the album "Rumors". I also learned about isolated vocals and harmonising
Were there any ideas in the podcast that i would consider using in my podcast? using a lot of music to illustrate what he is talking about. 


My podcast will be about Thrash metal and the bands that inspired me to become the musician I am today. It will mainly discuss the history between Metallica and Megadeth and how they both rose to fame despite being their biggest rivals

For my podcast research I'm going to research and discuss the history between two of my biggest influences - Metallica and Megadeth. I will title it after one of their songs like "Holy Wars" or "Master of Podcasts" or something like that. 

Danish drummer Lars Ulrich and Guitarist James Hetfield started a band along with bassist Ron Mcgovney. Mustaine sees an ad in the newspaper about a metal band looking for guitarist 


Student podcast

The podcast is called "influence of blues music podcast"
The topic is about what influences that blues had on other genres
The presenter is Abbie Brooke
I enjoyed the amount of information that Abbie shared about blues and how particular techniques from blues transition into rock and metal
I cant say theres much i didn't enjoy
I learned about the influence blues had on other genres
There is a few things I could use in my podcast which I learned from this, such as the information she provides and how I can apply similar things to my podcast

UNIT 8: Research

Throughout the course of this project I have done a lot of research in this project so today I will show and explain all the research I've done in this project. What you see here the tabs for "Enter Sandman" and "Lucretia". During the creation of my First and original song "Take it to your grave" I wanted to figure out a new section for my song as I didnt know what would come next. I didn't exactly use this as after i finished the solo the song goes into an interlude so i did not use this but it is good for the future in songwriting.  i knew what i wanted to do with my song, it involved getting a sample from a show called "Invincible" where a character named "Conquest" tells the main character all about his struggles and his loneliness before attempting to kill him followed by him saying "Take it to your grave" which inspired the name of my track. In order to extract Conquest's voice, I had to download the youtube ...

L3 Unit 5 & 6

This will be my on going diary for units 5 and 6 dedicated to the creation, recording, and mixing of my music video.   For this assignment, I need to write a song, record it in logic, mix it, record a music video, edit the music video, and release it on YouTube. The song that my band have chosen to recording a music video for is "Take it to your Grave" which is a song about the character named "Conquest" from the comic book TV adaptation "Invincible". In the season 3 finale, Invincible faces planet Viltrums most feared warrior "Conquest" who batters invincible from pillar to post. During the fight, Conquest opens up to our hero and discusses his feelings of loneliness and isolation from his own race and how he doesn't even get his own name, only a purpose. He tells Invincible "Take it to your Grave" and tries to kill him. I thought Conquest would make a fantastic theme for a song so I wrote Take it to your grave about him I wrote th...

Unit 8: Week 1

 So far i have learned how to put a guitar into logic using an interface and how to record my guitar parts into logic. I choose to play a harmony from the 1986 track by metallica "Master of Puppets". i chose this because it is a very good solo and it will get me into harmonizing which i had never done before  First of all, i had put the interface in control of the sound by changing the output and input to the interface. I then changed the input and output in logic to the interface. I then plugged a guitar cable into the interface but there was no sound on it so i had to change the interface to channel 2 so the system could hear my guitar. I checked a tab for master of puppets and changed the tempo to 106 which orchestrates the speed of the song. I had then started recording the two guitar tracks which harmonized with each other and after hundreds and hundreds of takes, i finally got the perfect harmony. I am proud of what i created in logic since this was my first time using...
