How to Create a Classical Music Mashup with Indie Rock

If you’re a fan of both classical music and indie rock, you may be wondering how to create a mashup of the two genres. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do just that!

Find a song you like

Pick a song you like from each genre. It could be anything — a current pop song, an oldie, or even a traditional folk song. As long as you like it and it’s in a major key, it will work for this mashup. If you want something with a steady beat, try to find songs with a 4/4 time signature. This is just the most common time signature, so it’s likely that both of your songs will have it. If not, don’t worry — you can still make it work.

Find a classical piece that you like

The first step is finding a classical piece that you like. If you’re not sure where to start, try looking for a piece that has been used in a movie or TV show. For example, the opening scene of the movie “The Social Network” features the track “In the Hall of the Mountain King” by Edvard Grieg. Another good place to look is on YouTube. There are lots of videos that feature classical music mashups with popular songs.

Once you’ve found a classical piece that you like, it’s time to start finding some indie rock songs that you think would go well with it. Try to find songs with a similar tempo and feel. For example, if you’re using a fast-paced classical piece like “In the Hall of the Mountain King,” you might want to use an indie rock song with a similar energy level.

Once you’ve found a few songs that you think will work well together, it’s time to start mashup! There are a few different ways that you can do this. One popular method is to use an audio editing program like Adobe Audition or Audacity to splice together different sections of each song. If you’re feeling really creative, you could even try adding your own instrumentation to the mix.

Another option is to use a video editing program like iMovie or Final Cut Pro to create a visual mashup. This can be especially effective if you find two pieces of music that have complementary visuals, such as an animation coupled with a live-action video.

Once you’ve created your mashup, share it with your friends and see what they think! You might even want to submit it to a contest or submit it for consideration on sites like YouTube or SoundCloud.

Find the instrumental of the classical piece

You can find the instrumental of the classical piece by searching for it on YouTube. Once you find the instrumental, make sure to download it so you can use it in your mashup. If you can’t find the instrumental, you can try finding an a capella version of the classical piece. An a capella version is a recording of just the vocals, without any instruments.

Find the instrumental of the song

First, you will need to find the instrumental of the song you want to use. You can find these on YouTube by searching for the song title followed by “instrumental.” Once you have found the instrumental, download it to your computer.

Next, find an indie rock song that you want to use for your mashup. Again, search for the song title on YouTube, but this time do not include “instrumental” in your search. Download this song to your computer as well.

Now that you have both songs downloaded, it’s time to start mashup creation!

Layer the two tracks

Start with the drums. Pick a drum loop from your indie rock track, and load it into your DAW. Find a spot in the classical track where the drums fit, and line them up with the drums in the rock track. If you can’t find a good spot, try speeding up or slowing down the classical track until the drums fit.

Add a bass line. Find a bass Loop in the indie rock track, and add it to your DAW. Find a spot in the classical track where the bass Loop fits, and line them up with the bass in the rock track. If you can’t find a good spot, try speeding up or slowing down the classical track until the bass Loop fits.

Now add some melodies. Choose a melody Loop from your indie rock track, and load it into your DAW. Find a section in the classical track where the melody Loop fits harmonically, and line them up with the melody in the rock track. If you can’t find a good spot, try playing with the pitch of the melody Loop until it fits.

Finally, add some chords. Choose a chord progression from your indie rock track, and load it into your DAW. Find a section in the classical track where the chords fit harmonically, and line them up with the chords in the rock track. If you can’t find a good spot, try playing with the pitch of the chords until they fit.”

Listen to your mashup and enjoy

Now that you’ve created your classical music mashup with indie rock, it’s time to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Be proud of yourself – you’ve just created something truly unique and totally awesome. Who knows, maybe you’ll even start a new trend. Enjoy!
