    Incredibox is a great website to explore musical creation and entertainment. Incredibox invites you to become the conductor of a group of human beatbox. You can share your compositions with others from all over. It's a really fun website that even students will enjoy using.
  •  
    Incredibox is a neat web-based app where seven loops at a time are available for students to use at a time. They may remove and add loops at any point, and there are unlocked special content available for certain combinations. This makes it seem like a game. Students can share their compositions, but unfortunately cannot download it without paying. Regardless, this is a fun activity where all the loops sound good-no matter what the combination.
  •  
    Students can arrange an acapella mix using different beat boxers and vocals. 
  •  
    I love this program.  Great for the kids on a snow day, or a day we cannot get in the band room, but can use the computer room.
  •  
    This is a unique website which allows the user to create rhythm loops with characters in costume representing the individual loops. It is an easy-to-use program which allows the user to create endless combinations of rhythm patterns and sound effects. Selecting the correct combination of figures will unlock bonus features. The program is fun for all ages.
  •  
    This is a website for students to compose beatbox-type songs. Students can combine melodies, rhythms, sound effects and voices to compose their piece.
  •  
    This is user friendly, fun, loop-based software where users can mix their favorite loops and then record and easily share their creations with others. This program is free to use on a computer and can be purchased for an iphone or ipad.
  •  
    I have LOVED this website so much. I use it in class on a regular basis for a variety of uses. It is used as meaningful sub plans, rewards, and to explore creativity and composition. I also use it to discuss beatboxing and form.
  •  
    This is an excellent website that produces high levels of student engagement and buy-in. It allows students to "mix" their own music using pre-created beats, rhythms, and melodies.
  •  
    This is the link for our incredibox software we used in class. Make sure you save to the email stacipendry@yahoo.com so I can see your pieces. Version one will not record

    Music Improvisation Arranging Music

In each "dude", the user needs to select a "clothing piece" that contains a specific loops. The user begins creating their mixes, and can add and delete them as needed. Musically speaking, it is a teaching tool because the user learns how to mix loops ate certain points. It enhance several concepts such as rhtyhm and meter.

    Chrome Music Lab is a great resource to explore the world of music technology with students of all grade levels. Students can create melodies, rhythms, and visually see their piece come to life with eye-catching colors. My younger students can learn through the program the difference between high/low and short/long. The Kandisky program is great for even the Kindergarten level to practice shapes, sounds, and reading music left to right.

    This is a site that helps music teachers teach across the curriculum by connecting music to math, science, and art. These are online experiments that are interactive and have explanations behind the experiments.

Songfacts - 0 views

  •  
    Songfacts is a website that enables educators and students to learn the historical background of artists and their songs. There is a search engine that allows for an easy look-up of any artist, and accompanying this search is a timeline of major events, a brief history of the artist's life, and insight that the general public may not know about the artist. There is also research and insight about individual songs that the artist released or collaborated on. Songfacts can be a great resource to give more context about music that students are learning to in and out of class. It can engage students in listening to music more actively if they are intrigued about the artist's life, struggles, achievements, vision, and motivation for creation.

The Infinite Jukebox - 0 views

  •  
    The Infinite Jukebox may come as somewhat of a revelation. For an introduction, readers may go to the site and click on a few of the popular tunes listed on the homepage. For instance, selecting Superstition by Stevie Wonder kicks off the 1972 hit in the way you've always heard it. But then The Infinite Jukebox takes over, matching beats and rhythmic patterns to create intelligent patterns for where the song can go next. No simple loop here. Instead the song plays for as long as the listener would like, but with seemingly infinite variety. Once users understand the basic principle, they can upload their own MP3s for free and let The Infinite Jukebox reorganize them into epic soundtracks for their working day.
  •  
    This quirky creation create an infinite musical loop from any song you select - and by infinite I mean never-ending. You can select a track from the site's vast library or upload a song of your own, which the site will analyze and use to create a pattern. This site could be beneficial for use with classical music to make easy background music.
  •  
    Pretty innovative program that remixes your favorite tunes so that you can listen to them over a long period of time! No need to use the "repeat" button anymore when you like a tune. It is INFINITE!

    The MusicEdMagic.com link serves as an outlet to other online music software websites, links for free sheet music, articles for music research/music making, and other electronic-focused music websites.  I was able to download free sheet music in a matter of seconds  from the musicnotes.com link provided on this link's homepage.  It has links to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+, and Pinterest on the homepage, making sharing and communicating accessible upon first glance.  As an educator, I see this page as being best used in private practice.  Being able to provide students with some of the featured videos like "Recommended Trombone Solos and Recordings" or "Audio Software For The Classroom Or Home Recording Studio" seem like links that would be best used for people that are more interested in personal, one-on-one study and creation of music.  However, I could see these links being used in a general setting as well, like ensemble practice or music tech classes.
