Drafting a musician

After creating the second app test in which I created my own music it was apparent that I would not be able to make all the music myself in the time frame so I sought out a musician to help me.

I talked with a musician whom had similar interests to myself about creating interactive media and after listening to some of there work I thought they could create some good music for the project.

I created a rough brief for them to follow and stressed the importance of the time constraints I was following.

Brief:

Music Brief

Creating an Audio-Visual sequencing app where the user can build/layer their own music and video at the same time via a phone or web app.

Music needs to be accessible to a large demographic of people (not “too” experimental) but still be interesting

There will be 4 types of clip each running at either: 4-8-16 bars, split into categories of: Drums, Bass, Keys (chord) and additional line/synth/pad/scape (very open) 

Preferably 120 bpm but all clips must be set at the same tempo 

All clips must be in the same key or chords used must fit together tonally 

I think the music would suit being atmospheric (especially with the chords) but also some more upbeat drum patterns to combine with them (Often find the artist Lone does this really well) but please feel free to experiment with setting some different tones with each of the categories
