This song started out with a progression of E minor, A minor, B major and A minor arpeggios, then the granular synthesis was used to add in a eery, droning bass. It sounded very creepy, so I tried to add a suitable melody through it.
Then comes my homemade instrument. Its built with 9 phasors and a highpass butterworth filter. This gives off a really cool sound. I add the signals of 3 of the phasors to 6 other phasors, essentially there are two sounds created. The first gives off the sound of a voldschool video game-esque sound effect of either a really crappy motorcycle accelerating or an old tv turning on(depending on the paramater values in the score file), while the second sound is like a repeating baseline that changes pitch as the first sound does.
Instrument 101 was taken from the chapter on instrument creation in the Csound book. Instrument 103 was used to load in a wave file. Instrument 102 is my custom instrument which is asynchronous granular synthesis with parameterized enveloping.
