I decided to share my work during the WIP for the university, I was not prepared but I felt it would be useful to show my work in progress and have something to help me with reflecting and improving my work and greater contextualising it. I decided to go for something simple, put the ten instrumentals I’ve made so far into one file, each a minute long, influenced by the Madlib Beat tapes he gives to artists and then the graphic score which I’m yet to perform with or do anything with.
This was the final outcome and the bench felt nice, when listening to I felt like it really connected well with the graphic score, even though it was not used to the composition, I also had mixed feedback, some people called it lo-fi hip hop beats to study to, and others completing getting what I was doing, and that my sample choice was great. I discussed this with someone with my ideas about copyright law and I felt perhaps the next thing I can do is create a copyright graphic score, using copyrighted photos and images as the score for my composition.
As well as this I felt the beats needed rapping, now is the time to start!
