For my second audio assignment I decided to do the mashup/guess the songs challenge for 2 stars. This was really fun to make. I wanted some sort of theme for the mashup, so I made the clips be the first two lines of the first song in the mashup. Most of the clips contribute one word, but a few contribute two. All told I think I incorporated nine clips from different songs. I know that’s past the suggested six, but I wanted to finish what I started. I don’t necessarily like all of the songs, but I chose them based on how recognizable they are and the clarity of the words I was trying to use them for. All but one are pretty famous, and the odd duck is very well-known to certain demographics. As far as combining the clips goes, I did everything in Audacity. I simply added each clip as a separate track, trimmed them to the desired length, and then staggered them so that one begins right after another ends. Happy guessing!
