These tracks were produced (along with "At Peace") in the Digital Sound class at SAIC, taught by Allie n Steve Mullen.
"95 Startup Windows" uses a sample of the Windows 95 Startup tune by Brian Eno. It was created as a score for a video slideshow featuring photos of the windows of 95 startup businesses, loosely defined. The video has not yet been finished.
"FM" was created with samples provided by the class. The assignment restricted usable material to the pool of samples and our own voices.
"FM" samples (can't remember who provided all of them):
Digital Distortion - Henry Boeschenstein (Henry)
Clip from Chinatown, possibly by Jerry Goldsmith (Zhuang Leng)
"Words" - (Isaac)
"I Fall in Love Too Easily" - Chet Baker (?)
"foward" - Ilai Gilbert (Ilai / 4 am)
"FX" - (Aspen)
"120_bpm" - (Bill Chen)
"Smoke in Your Eyes" - The Platters (Dongmin)
"Vyzee" - SOPHIE (Maya)
Philip Seymour Hoffman in Punch-Drunk Love - PSH (Me)
