What is 2012's "Party Rock Anthem"?

Recommended Posts

I'm going to try using Call Me Maybe as my first ever attempt at sequencing. I converted the song to WAV and opened it in the Sequencer. That's as far as I got, haven't had time to do anything yet. I'm sure it won't come out good, as I've never done this before, but I figured it'll be a good song to start with since it's got a good beat. How do you guys come up with inspirations as to what to do? I can pick up the beat really well, I've got a good ear for music, but trying to decide what channels should do what at each beat is still a very difficult concept for me to grasp.

I use Mp3. This should be a simple song. It's in 4/4. I just started to sequence this one. What i did firs was run the beat wizard at every 2 beats. Then I run it for quarter and 16th notes.

My display is set up in 4 ch interments of red and green.

1-8 House (slow movement)

8-16 tree (medium to fast)

17-24 Mini Trees (fast)

I just started this song a day ago.

I have been working on PSY for a few months and was hoping he'd go unnoticed. I don't really know how to sequence yet so it's been a bit of a challenge but been likng what's been coming out of it so far.

What about Gotye's "Someone I used to Know?" It's been the top selling single this year.

I personally think this is a winner, but don't see to many others talking about it.

You know.. I definitely think "Call Me Maybe" is going to win out on this one... But a song I never thought of that another guy did for Halloween and posted about in another thread was Titianum by David Guetta.. Its actually really good and there are a lot of things that can be done with it!

Thanks Brad! I appreciate the compliment! Glad you liked the Titanium sequence.

I have also been working on this song by PSY for a bit. I am using singing faces with mine also and from last year I have 32 more channels. Its a work in progress but so far I think it looks great...just really hard on the mouth movements cause I have to get them as close to what is said...and I don't speak Koren...but so far the wife and kids are loving what I have done...hopefully will be completed before I setup for Halloween, if not will put it out for Xmas.

ok so I finished the mouth (i think) here is a link to some of the seq in the visualizer. Got a few fixes to make and have not finished all the other channels yet...but it gives a general idea....as always your thoughts and suggestions are always appreciated.
