Since we are looking at Coolio's piece of music I have researched some things about him. Coolio, also known as Artis Leon Ivey Jr. Usually Coolio plays happy song themes. some of his songs are:
- C u when u get there
- It takes a thief
- Gangsta's paradise
- My soul
- steal hear
- Money
- 1, 2, 3, 4
- Fantastic voyage
After looking at the type of music Coolio plays I got an idea of our task, and I came up with great pieces of music with some inspiration.
The time that we have been given so far allowed me to understand some different key parts of building and creating my very own music. I have learnt that in coolio for chord 1 we use C, E or G. For chord 4 consists of F, A and C, in the last chord the notes can/may consist of either G, B or D. So far I really like my music piece because I have used my chords correctly and my teacher has told me a way that helps me find each chord. A - B - C - D - E - F - G
In order to find a chord you need to leave 1 each time, example: A chord A - C - E , B chord
B - D - F, and so on. If my music piece has a note repeated twice it would sound better if you add a note that is close to it. Example: A A you can add A - B - A.
