SOLO PIANO

The original test project that jump-started a series of audio visuals. The color scheme is the classic black and white of a grand piano, and I like to think the bars represent the piano keys. The low video quality is due to limited file sizes.

 

DESTROID 10. FUNKHOLE - EXCISION & SPACE LACES

Decided to begin with other artists, and figured the bass-focused dubstep group 'Destroid' would be a good start. I created a song banner from the original background, and overlayed the waveform with the same theme. I like the glowing red from the darkness, it really brings out the feel of the music style.

IV. SWEATPANTS - CHILDISH GAMBINO

Moved on to some hip-hop, simply for the sound variety and appreciation for the artists. I set up two 'towers' of waveforms next to a slow-burning image of Bino, and experimented mostly with the waveform itself.

 

POUND CAKE - DRAKE & JAY-Z

Sorry for song fans, but I cut the intro and the 'Paris Morton' section. This audio visual shows off some more subtle background changes, as well as a waveform with clearly unique heights. When the bass hits, the left side makes it very obvious, and I believe most of the sounds are made nice and visible. 

DAD - WILLDABEATS (https://soundcloud.com/willdabeats486)

Taking my small album cover and putting it to a background reminds me that I'm not an actualy music artist yet. My friend willdabeats, on the other hand, has just started his music career. This is a small portion of his second single 'Dad', that I was originally going to rap over, but I never got around to that. This is the near full potential of these audio visuals, in the future maybe I'll animate the background, or make it cleaner.

DEATH BY NUMBERS (Jamie Slacks Remix) - CHILDISH GAMBINO

This animation features my loosely chopped and edited remix of another kind of Gambino song. I wanted to focus on gold colors and radial animations, as the focus on the center creates an interesting effect with the distorted sounds of the song. The song is a trip, therefore I wanted to create a feeling of spiraling outward.
