MIDI Song Process

I am very proud of the beat that I have made with MIDI. My keyboard was the main tool used to create my MIDI song. One of the instruments used in the track is the drums. Using MIDI, I created a simple drum pattern, it sounded like something that would be in a rock song. I also used the piano to create a melody over the drums to make the beat sound a little more on the pop/ rock side. Then, I used bass to layer the drums and the melody so it would stand out and make it also sound like hip hop. I made a hip hop beat using rock drums, pop piano, and a hard attacking bass. I feel like the end result was satisfying because it was my music that I made and it wasn’t loops that other people created. If I had more time, I probably would’ve added a synthesizer track and a strings track.
