Seventh and eighth grade students in the song production arts elective have been working on their keyboard skills. After spending some time working on the basics of successfully recording and editing MIDI, students began to construct their own multi-layered songs. Some were creating airy dreamscapes, and others were working on dark, horror-inspired beats.
