Being a DJ For a Day

I used a drum machine called Hydrogen to make this beat. I actually made it when we first started doing audio assignments, and I really liked making this.

It’s a pretty fast BPM song so it’d be hard to actually make a song to it, but I really like the overall flow of it and the kicks and snares. Really enjoy making beats like this.

Play DJ & Make A Song

With audio programs, making a song from scratch suddenly becomes really, really easy. Programs like GarageBand come with their own loop selection, but if you are using a different program, try downloading bass riffs or back beats and go to town! Or download beats from Youtube- wherever. The challenge is to make a song without recording anything yourself.
