A new book

Time flies

I was born in boulder. Since I was little I've always been into music I'd like to dance to it or sometimes just nod my head and my mom sometimes shows me old videos of me about years ago of me just dancing at family parties and just having a fun time listening to music but that was when I was a little one now I don't really like to dance but I still admire music and the first time I joined audio production I was happy because I was able to make beats I can vibe to and listen to.

A little about me

In this album, I focused on making sure my songs sounded good and that they have some good flows. I wanted to make an album where really anyone can listen to my favorite genre of music rap and hip hop so in some of my songs I made sure to include some beats that I liked and reminded me of some beats I hear in some rap music. Songs from Juice Wrld and Trippie Redd inspired me to make some really chill songs. This album is about how quickly time goes by and the stuff you can accomplish in just a short amount of time.

Home Colorado

Featuring Irving Saldana on rapping

Rationale

This was my first project in soundtrap where we had to work with a group and make a song about colorado. It was really fun although I didn't rap it was fun to make a beat about where we live and also fun being creative. We all had control over the beat but Irving had control over the rapping which was pretty good for his first time rapping this song was really fun to make and listening to it will always make me remember Colorado. Home Colorado is a song about where we live and will always remember so this song will always make me think of Colorado.

Ringtone

In this project, I worked on it by myself and I just wanted to put a bunch of sounds in this song and make them sound altogether like a ringtone. Ringtone is a song about ringtones in your phone like the one's that wake up for school to make sure you wake up this song reminds me of a lot of different ringtones in a phone but put together that create an ultra ringtone. The only difficult part of this project was to find beats that can go well with other beats that make it sound like a bunch of ringtones.

Lonely ghost road

Rationale

In this project, I worked on it by myself I wanted to make it kinda like a scary song but it ended being a spooky song. Lonely ghost road is a song about walking on a road with no cars or anything and is just a silent road where you hear scary noises and it's pitch black outside and you can hear footsteps walking towards you but no one is there. You're just Lonely on a ghost road.

Acknowledgement

I'd like to thank Irving for making a great song with me and taking a step to rap for our group and for helping me.

I'd also like to thank Babah fly for taking time out of his day to come talk to us and helping us understand more about how to add something to our song and coming to our breakout rooms to make sure we understand what we are doing.

I'd like to thank Ms. Olson because she works really hard and always makes sure that we finish the project on time and when we need more time to finish a project she gives us an extra day and for helping me and making audio production class fun.
