I decided to make a little beat out of my vocal hip-hop rant due to the nature of the rant.

Unnamed Sound #2

This was my indoor sound taken in my dorm room. I was very sly about how I got this sound. I put a pillow over my mics and taped them to my roommates desk and hit record when he came in. How did he produce this sound? What is it?

Unnamed Sound

I took bus 30 for my route here in Milwaukee, I have never before ridden this bus-line and took it for about a 10 - 15min. ride, got off and walked past a few buildings on my left side and went behind a larger one which opened up to an area with a decent amount of trees. I then took my mics and placed them inside a mysterious object that gave the sound a unique shape to my recording. These are the sounds that ensued...

Drift Recording at Parking Ramp (Final)

This was taken at the Parking garage right off of Campus by the Sandburg dorms and was at about 8:30 on Tuesday, March 6th.
Total Running Time: 1:51

For this drift, I was positioned perfectly on the corner of the garage so that I could very easily catch the sounds outside of the garage as well as within it. They partially echoed as you can hear the footprints reverberate off of the parking ramps walls. I love the Hi-fidelity I was able to get from it. The squeak of the door added an abnormal element to the piece and quickly became the main character of the recording. I also loved the occasional traffic adding a bit of familiarity to the work but also depth, due to the ease of hearing it fade away as they drove away.
I felt like this had constant noise and was very "aesthetically pleasing" like it almost had shape to it and formed not just a picture but a scene. As I was listening to the sounds being captured I was instantly captivated and knew I had gotten lucky with my drift on this piece. All the sounds complimented one another and yet had their own flavor they added to the piece.

Drift Roughs

My Drift Strategy lead me to these locations around Milwaukee from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. The titles pertain to the specific location of the area I was in.

Drift Strategy

My drift strategy is to leave my travels completely up to chance. I will first flip a coin, heads, I will start walking north on Maryland and tails, I will start walking south down Maryland. Once that is determined, I will roll a 6 sided dice,  6 times and the numbers I get will symbolize city blocks and how many of them I have to walk. Rolls 1, 3 and 5 will be for left turns and rolls 2, 4 and 6 will be for right turns at the end of my last block I walk each time.

Found Sound Final

With this Sound Edit I was shooting to set a scene outside of a derby racetrack and at a gas station on a rainy day. You can still here the low sound of civilian cars driving by.  Click Here For PC                Click Here For MAC
