The 15 Minute Challenge: Can you come up with a decent idea for a piece of music in 15 minutes? Today composer Guy Michelmore is going give it a go using a selection of alternative instruments from boutique sample developer Soniccouture. Two of the things that help boost creativity and overcome the blank page syndrome are a restricted pallet of sounds and a deadline or time limit. Let’s put both of those to the test today and see what happens! Guy runs Thinkspace Education which is an online education organisation where top working professionals give back to the next generation of working musicians and sound designers. Whether you are looking for an online Master’s degree, an 8 week bootcamp or a self-study short course, check us out!
