yesterday was the reading of honours. as usual, boring. as usual at the end, we sing that song with fists up in the air. while the whole high school was singing, i was thinking about the movement of the fists synchronized to the song. every forward movement of the fist was one beat of a measure. then after the whole song was finished, i called rain's attention and said, "Rain, may idea ako.". he then said, "Gagawa ka ng version mo?" then i go, "Yeah, and you'll sing." the idea was first to speed up the tempo. no fists are needed. people should jump! i was thinking how i'll do it. hard-hitting ala Mark Norman trance, melodic arp kind of trance, soulful house, or hard-hitting hard synth trance. of course soulful house was out and since i want hard stuff, i chose hart-hitting kicks with heavy synths. when i went home, i totally forgot about it and since i had to read el filibusterismo. damn. yea so the next day, which is today, thursday, i looked for the gr.7 mass song book. at the last page was the song's music sheet. i made the bassine first. if i followed what was written in the book, it would sound like a kid's song. after the bassline, the hard synth. the synth is bouncing on octaves and on overdrive. the strings followed and percs. i finished the music and tomorrow, rain will sing to finish the song. and for some reason, this rico blanco guy has his own version of the grad song. it needs to be thumping!
