This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.

It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument “Loop Shifter” that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad and sent through some filters and delays. The sample used was kindly provided by Bethan and I hope she can forgive me for what I did to her lovely singing :)

While the Launchpad isn’t really designed to be a “keyboard” I’ve found that, in certain situations, it works really well for that purpose.

At over 11m of weirdness this was probably rather self-indulgent for a submission to something like Ramen, but there we go…

I seem to have problems streaming tracks on here these days unfortunately, but fortunately that means I download them to listen. This track was incredibly relaxing to listen to. I felt as if I'd returned to the safety of the womb. Wonderful...thanks!!!

Love all the different sounds and textures. I sure am a sucker for textured and layered sounds in music! Some really cool 'underwater' sounds! Thanks for your recent comment on my newest song 'The End'.

What an experiment! Is that the "all around my hat" sample?

In my hands Loop Shifter is anything but subtle :)
