'Beempeemp' - New Original Music - 5 Minute Speedrun, Timed Songwriting Challenge - Electronic/Instrumental + Walkthrough
So I gave myself another 5 minutes
last night to write something, and this is the result. I think once again, I spent a little too much time on tiny details, resulting in only 5 tracks total, but I kinda like the results. It's a bit goofy and silly, but there's something interesting in the rhythms between the synth and bass, and the back and forth between them. I started with Track 1, which begins with a Cmaj7add9b13 (is there a better way to write that? no idea, lol), to a C6, with a sus2 and 4, and a b9 towards the top (lol), then both those chords drop down a minor third, and repeating. However, this synth has very little definition, and most of the low notes got lost, so the C chords sound like D6 (with some extensions), and the A's B6, haha. I had 5 minutes, so I had to deal with it.

Track 2 is the bass, which, because
of the weirdness in Track 1, wound up just playing a D, then B, back and forth. Tracks 3 and 4 are the drums, with the kicks and snare in 3, and the hihats (with a warpy delay) in Track 4. Finally we have Track 5, in which I recorded Track 1's chords, just held out instead of played rhythmically, then effected with the LFOTool from Xfer (the demo I downloaded the other day.
Track 1, Big Chords, Choppy Rhythm.
Track 2, Synth Bass.
Hope you like this goofy little tune! Thanks for listening!
