Dance Theme Sketch

Hi,

I started by extracting a theme from a large quantity of notes i played from feel.  I figured out the theme was roughly at 102bpm and Cubase allowed me to figure this bpm out without changing the themes tempo.

With that extracted piece I started layering on additional piano, string and even flute.  But when i isolated the piano i noticed it needed a stronger base line.  So I free styled some piano chords.  This made me remove the strings and flute and then I added drum and free styled a piano melody.  The drums helped me to adjust the piano melody notes to better fit the 102 bpm.

Happy Sketching!
