TGC: CSound Composition
Craig Maki
April 7, 2008
To create my composition, lovingly named �CraigsHorribleCSoundSong� or �CHCSS� for short, I used a few different instruments.
| instr� � 107 | This instrument is borrowed from Requiem for a Dream by Rodrigo Neves. In his project it was called instrument 1. I modified it slightly to make it sound less like requiem, but if you listen closely you can notice it. | 
| instr� � 200 | This is my custom created instrument. It combined two looping oscillators each looping the audio track �kick.aif� into a standard oscillator. The result is an odd pop-click sound, which you have to listen for. 
 | 
| instr �� 106 | This instrument is simply a looping oscillator that loops through the track �kick.aif�. | 
| instr �� 108 | This instrument is simply a looping oscillator that loops through the track �psy3-2.aif�. | 
| instr �� 111 | This instrument is simply a looping oscillator that loops through the track �bugsbunny2.aif�. This sound is hard to make out in the composition, but listen carefully for: �Eh, your mother chews bubble gum!� | 
| instr �� 109 | The granular synthesis instrument. In the composition if you listen the high pitched humming is generated by this instrument. Neat effect! | 
| instr �� 2 | This instrument was created by Joe Maffei as part of a project to generate Psytrance with CSound. his blog is found here: http://joesprojectblog.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html | 
To create this composition I prepared myself mentally and physically to be in my peak condition. I woke up every morning, drank 5 eggs, and then went out into the world.
As a result of my long preparations CHCSS is a hit! Created the night before the assignment was due, after a couple Red Bulls it is now soaring up the charts!
I have been nominated for a Grammy and stand a good chance of winning.
