Coolio music


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. 

Reflection on my own ground bass and part 1 - 4



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.
