This project is a group project consisting of the non Live 2 Drive members of our class.
The themes for the project include, Robots taking over, apocalypse, Aliens, Time Travel, and pollution in future planets. We were also given inspiration images to help lead us in the right direction.
Synopsis
The EP tells the story of a world where a giant mecha robot travels through time to wipe out the world population.
Intro - is the track that is before the arrival, it is the sound of impending doom.
Arrival - As the robot arrives and assesses the environment of the world to deem whether they are worthy of life.
MechaMurder - The robot decides the world is not worthy and begins the annihilation of its inhabitants.
N.D.E - Never Dying Energy is the remaining energy of the planet after the robot is gone.
Outro - The sound of the left over wasteland.
Tracks:
Arrival
This track is the lead up to the climax of the EP
It's a mashup of orchestra and dubstep that evolves throughout
It introduces elements of destruction, leading into the track 'MechaMurder'
Track 3:
MechaMurder
This track is the climax within the EP - It is the total annihilation of the planet by a mega mechabot.
It is full of heavy bass and jarring stabs for every shot the robot takes.
Track 4:
This song is about the remaining energy after the annihilation of the planet in 'MechaMurder', the hope yet uncertainty that organic life will exist again.
It was done with the primary intention of of having very minimal drums but still being quite rhythmic, with a very noticeable harmonic change at the end to enhance the uncertainty feeling and introducing 'Wasteland'
Curve Balls:
We were given a combined list of curveballs that each track must utilise to encourage doing things we normally wouldn't do or wouldn't use:
Curveballs:
Vocoder
Something recorded to tape
An external synth
An external FX unit.
