Sequencing in context

I have made one short song from the Hip Hop genre and put the different element sections of it in a padlet. I have picked the genre that I found the most interesting and appealing and have then proceeded to make a small track out of the genre I have looked at. I have done research in class and continued to do extra research at home. After listening to 3 different songs that I picked from the Hip Hop genre I proceeded to note down the instrumentation, tempo and structure used in each song so I could learn what I needed to do to make a successful Hip Hop track. I have recorded this information in a blog as well as the five main elements of Hip Hop, the common instruments used in a Hip Hop song, the five characteristics of Hip Hop and a couple of sentences about the history of Hip Hop for example where, when and who created the Hip Hop that we know today. I have included a link of the Padlet we made as a group researching the progression of Hip Hop throughout the years for a rough idea ...

For this project I will look at different genres of music and how to make them. Experiment with each of the genres by making a short sequencing in logic. Then pick a genre of my choice and do research for the chosen genre and make a composition including the 5 main elements and characteristics of that genre i.e. Hip Hop and pick three songs from that genre and evaluate them by listing down the tempo, structure and instrumentation used in each. I also have to research these four roles; Music producer, Music Composer, Sound engineer and mixing engineer and name a couple of of famous artists from each. I must also do a risk assessment for this project and upload my final composition onto Soundcloud then embed the link into my blog. I must also create a three week plan detailing what I will do for each day then evaluate that week: what went well, what didn't go to plan, did you change anything and did any problems arise from it.

The five main characteristics and elements that every Hip Hop track needs to have to be classed as Hip Hop are: Melody Drum Pattern Rhythmic Melody  Bassline Synths Doing / Scratching Mcing / Rapping Break Beat dancing And Tagging / Grafitting  The instruments most commonly used in Hip Hop is: Hihats Snares A Roland 808 Drum Machine Heavy Synth and sample Basslines Synths Apple Loops Samples Heavy use of  808 kick drums with a Sub bass underneath My Hip Hop track has followed that instrumentation.  The Hip Hop we know today first started at a house party thrown by DJ Kool Herc (Clive Campbell) in The Bronx New York in the late 1970s.

There are different types of producers who are good at certain things. Every producer falls under one category or more. A producer can also hire sound and mixing engineers and supervise them. A couple of famous music producers are Dr.Dre and Avicii (rip). Harvard Reference and link to site with all the different information about producers; Shepherd, I. (2009).
