Let's write a Master/Disasterpiece!

[Mattashi]

Here's a little idea I came up with which should be pretty fun to do with the Audio community.
I made this short pad track (Tempo = 135 and Signature 4/4)
Now the next composer should try to add something to this but there's only 1 rule;
you can only change/add 1 thing! so if you want to add an instrument like for instance a bass you can't add any other instruments to the track. You can also continue the track and make it longer or have a key change maybe even a genre change :P
Once that person is done with his/her part he/she uploads the track again with his/her addition and the next composer can add something

Make sure the file stays in .WAV for best quality
Let's see what we can come up with :D

@Loathar @dem0lecule
Awesome work so far guys xD Oh and it plays fine for me demolecule.

[SoulSecure]

It says the file is there, so it should be there, although I can't get it to play anything.

Just added some saz to the opening for brightness.

Suggestion: Upload your part without anything else, just your part as .wav format so that the final person can mix it for you. Or it will become a mess very quickly. Whoever chooses to follow up can download all the individual files to hear what they sound like together.

Just a friendly suggestion. :)

I had thought of this, but quickly threw the thought out.

It does say it could be a disasterpiece.

Nothing as far as I understand it.

Thought about that too.

Don't think you were here for the noise collab. That was kind of like this.

[SierraRising]

Here, I had a go at this with some trancy chords. Not sure if this will fulfill Lich´s white noise criteria or not.

PS: Pretty sure I messed something up along the way.

[TheBetterAudioPortal]

Needed something more banging. So I added it myself.

@OfficialSnow, omg that isn't even in the right key.

I did say you can add anything you want :P

@OfficialSnow
Would sound nice if it was in the right key like BetterAudioPortal said.

Yeah, working on it now, sorry :)
I tried analyzing it in FL and it threw out E2 notes, is that correct, or no?

the first 4 Chords go like E Major F# Major G# Minor B Major

[Phonometrologist]

I was actually digging this until the piece got more "banging."
So here's some added texture:

[SierraRising]

Ok, I fixed my chords, thanks to @TheBetterAudioPortal and @Mattashi and placed them under the banging+textured part of the track.
Please don't kill me, @Phonometrologist

No worries. It's now a classic

[DL2Electron]

Added an electric guitar with some heavy reverb and modulation to make it more ambient

https://instaud.io/68r

So far sounds very interesting! But we might get to a point where adding more instruments will just make it sound like noise.. @Mattashi

Yeah. I think when things get busy as to just extend it then, and make an additional part. As Mattashi says, just make it longer. Very cool idea! Me likey!

[SilverPoyozo]

@Mattashi Pretty cool idea!

https://instaud.io/68P

Added a little piano melody to it.

[LunyAlex]

This should be a thing. Like a constant thing, and when one track gets long and exhausted (preferably before) one starts anew.

I approve.

I agree! Lets keep this up, when it gets too busy or long, someone else starts a new track.

Yeah as Mattashi says. One instrument, no more. :) You can extend that track though if things get muddy with layering.

[TheBetterAudioPortal]

Do the drums count as one instrument or will we have to have one person do the kick, one person do the snare etc.

ps I wanna do the drums

I think one person can do the whole drumkit so go at it :) but it would be even more interesting to see what we would come up with if only one did the kick and someone else the snare, cymbals,etc... :P

@PeterSatera Yup that's what I ment :) someone can do a transition and bring a complete new instrument to the track so other composer can add something new to that, or we can just start over if we get tired of it!

@Dem0lecule We could make a rule that the same composer can add another instrument after 5 other composers had a go at it. Just an idea :)

[EvilRaccoon]

@Mattashi Awesome!

@TheBetterAudioPortal get on those drums boyo! :P

[TheBetterAudioPortal]

DRUMS

Time to extend it I think before it gets cluttered! :D

Right.

I'm going to completely ignore what you did and just go with my version where @TheBetterAudioPortal left off, and save this song before it craps itself any further.
