Besides making the best personal computers, Apple Computer makes the coolest software. Take for instance SoundTrack, their music composition software.
Soundtrack's easy-to-use interface makes it simple for you to create your own original music, even if you don't have a background in music or composition—like me. And the music you make with Soundtrack and its 4,000 pre-recorded loops can be distributed, broadcast, or sold...royalty-free. You just drop the loops into the timeline to start building a song. Soundtrack automatically syncs them up to your project tempo and key, making a perfect sounding accompaniment for your project. (GarageBand is a similar, lower cost product also made by Apple.)
I've created a couple of clips that I'd like to share with you to show you the kind of music you can make. The first sounds like the music you would hear during the opening credits for a suspense film. The second is more like the music that would be played during a car chase or getaway scene in a 1970s film. Both clips took me about 10 minutes to put together. The "album art" is just to get you in the mood. = )
