I made lost of changes from my initial compositional plan to the final result. Initially i was only going to use the vocal samples that we created over the previous weeks, however i only used the paper sounds because i believe that offered better rhythmic sounds.
I am very proud of my concept. Relating Music Concrete to pop/rock. It is something that hasn't been done before and yet still keeps within the bounds of Music Concrete.
Another plan change was the use of instruments. Initially i was going to use very short samples to create an instrument and a melody, however after playing with this for a while i realized that it didn't represent Music Concrete and wasn't staying true to the proper form.
I made my score applicable to anybody that wishes to make a Music Concrete piece in the form of a pop song. Its not the sounds that are important to the concept, its the form and the idea that it is based on repeating riffs and another continually changing sound to counteract this which represents vocals.
Overall lost of fun to play with, and i learnt a lot about the nature of Music Concrete just by playing around with the sounds.

Great, last part solves a problem I've had for awhile. How do record thunder without getting wet.
See the gains are right up, cool. Don't overdo it. I have some new reference monitors and that sounded sweet though.
very enjoyed the subtle sounds near the end, creaky and spacious
