Describing Our Music

(If you haven't seen the blog post before this one, I think you should because it would make more sense).

Since the music we made was done and dusted our next task was to blog about it. Here is my writing about the music that I made.

It was Christmas Eve, and the Diaz’s had a private plan. I got out of my 1998 Chevy Camaro Z28 as I looked ahead of me to find “Florid Disco”. I stepped inside into a whole different world. There was lively music playing, I went to the dance floor to show off my best moves, a shimmy was too boring for me, I showed off my tango and samba moves as my family cheered me on.

Making Music

In the last session of Music me and friends, Risha and Nevaeh got to make some of our own music on Garage Band. The music had to include the following.

- It had to be 3 minutes long

- It needs to have ASMR in it

- It needs to have 3 instruments in the song

- It needs to have 3 sounds

- It needs to have a beginning, a middle and an ending.

We had fun with our music and tried to make it as unique as possible, I wish we got to do this more often! Anyways, here's the song that we made!

The 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s - Music

In Music we learnt about Music in the different decades, we had to create a slideshow showing the information. So here is mine.

ASMR

This period we learnt about ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). When you watch ASMR videos you might get a tingly feeling somewhere on your body. It depends on how your body responds to those types of sounds.

We watched 2 different types of ASMR videos. The first one was a singing video. A girl would whisper/sing Billie Eilish songs. It didn't really make me feel tingly but it was a little satisfying.

Next, we watched an eating ASMR video. A woman was Aloe Vera. She would first cut it into big pieces then peel off the skin. When she started to peel it off I got the tingles! That was something I had never felt before so I started to laugh. Then she began eating the Aloe. It was slimy so it made the noise worse. I hated the crunchy it made me feel a little sick.

If I ever got the chance to make ASMR videos I'd make tapping ones. Lightly tapping, nothing gross. I would never eat in my videos because in order to get the perfect sound I think you have to chew with your mouth open which is just disgusting by itself.

Adele

For Music this past week we have been researching famous artists. But we couldn't just research anyone, we had 4 artists to choose from. Adele, Lady Gaga, Buddy Holly and Bruce Springsteen. Since I've listened to Adele more than the others I decided to pick Adele! After some researching and a lot of editing my slide was complete! If you want to see my slide click below!
 

2 Famous Artists

For Music Hurumanu we had to research a famous New Zealand solo artist and a famous New Zealand band and find out facts about them. When you had finished researching you had to make a DLO. So here is mine!
