Original Samples

Used a few lines from my a cappella track "Life Isn't Everything", and created the piano, bass, and some drum parts.

Process

I'm new to Ableton Live, I decided that the ccMixter secret mixter project would be a good way to learn how to use it. I cut up and manipulated samples in Live, and used Reason 4 for additional parts. Vocal melodies were mangled using Melodyne.
