When I had developed my solo piece, I had looked at several opportunities to look at pieces to develop to suit my taste of music or ways to challenge myself.

I looked at Pachelbel's Canon in D. It was the piano version of the track. I wanted to adapt this piece to give it more of a hip hop flavour. I thought that I could experiment with beat boxing and other objects that would fit with the sampled music. At first I felt that it would only really work with beat boxing. Then I discovered that the song could be enhanced to suit the hip hop remix of the song if I added more everyday objects in. I decided to put rice into a plastic bottle and experiment with the beats and see where it would fit.

The rice in the plastic added extra percussion to the music and it contributed to the feeling of the music.
