| 5/29 | N/A | ||
| 5/30 | I watched some of 8-bit Music Theory’s “How to Write Drum Parts (for non drummers)”. | ~30 minutes | Most of the information was stuff I had general knowledge of, but it was explained with better detail why a rhythm is generally structured the way it is, which was nice.
I also made a little beat in Online Sequencer that was stuck in my head (inspired by PaRappa the Rapper, haha). |
| 5/31 | I continued watching “How to Write Drum Parts (for non drummers)”. | ~20 minutes | I learned some interesting things about anticipation and matching the dynamics between a rhythm and melody section. I also heard some pretty neat ideas for rhythm, like having the snare keep the steady beat while the kick accentuates. |
