Message from the artist
This almost makes it to "C" but being manually recorded the pauses aren't -quite- the same length.

Difficulty

B (Hard)

Make a piece that has the same musical notes both forwards and backwards but doesn’t have to be an identical recording.

This sounds like a war between ducks and cats. I have no idea how this would sound backwards But this does put a smile in my face. Thank you for this.

The benefit of having the workstation have a sequencer built in is I can just stuff a blank space in the center then work backwards until the two halves connect. I decided to give us some weird tones out of the master list so it would stand out :)

I was after just a notation-symmetry rather than getting such complex voice tones to have the same -timbral- going backwards which sounds super difficult.

Glad you had fun.

I don't think this would sound the same when played backwards, but that doesn't change the fact, that it's really fun to listen to! I kind of associate it with the sound of an angry futuristic cat, pretty unique sound! Meow! 😸🎶

yeah its more that it's manually played in reverse with the same notes on the keyboard with fingers, like carving out a blank space in the middle and doing the ends toward each other till they linked

not that it would play on a vinyl in reverse the same :)

Glad you had fun!

Cheers

You say you were trying to make it work for challenge C but with the echoes of most of the instruments it would definitely not sound the same reversed as it does going forewords.

I won't dock points or anything since it's still palindromic just pointing it out.

I think the lack of much percussion noise makes this track feel odd. The really sharp melody has nothing to counter it and it just ends up feeling barren.

Adding different melodic lines and more percussive noise would help a lot I think.
