The product of yesterdays experiments with Metasynth.
I took a few seconds of a Debussy piano piece and imported them into Metasynths spectrum synth where I turned them into a groove which I then filtered in the Filter room.
I imported this…
Halfway through it did feel like it was the intro to something (cue dry ice, big light show, power chord, let's rock... mebbe!)(I think it's the hi-hat that does this to me, it reminds me of a drummer itching to get going)
But, for me, it does actually bring itself to a nice conclusion. Didn't really feel like "petering out" at this end.
Today I decided I would play with the lovely (and free) [Pocket Blakus](http://blakus.com/pocketblakus-192) solo cello.
At first I tried arpeggiating some chords but this didn't work so well with this cello which has a long, heavy, sound that…
A demo track for a new Reaktor instrument I'm building codename: Mimetron.
Loop Guitar 1 is a long, flowing, ambient piece. Mellow with a few moments of grit.

this sounds awesome:
When the input signal from the filter exceeds the gate-on threshold the sampler plays the loop for that channel. When the incoming signal falls below the gate-off level the loop gets released and decays away.
2 minutes into the track and loving it.

Thanks for the nice comments my friends. I've been away (for various reasons) from music for some time and this is one of my first few forays back. Trying to recapture my spirit of adventure!
A rather more fundamentally experimental piece with Reichenbach's new *drift* mode. In this mode a probability matrix controls periodic changes in the loop length and/or position.
Once more I am using one of the awesome [Rekkerd mixed bag](http…
I'm a complete idiot when it comes to all things midi related. Recently got myself a midi keyboard though and came up with this short piece just messing with sounds in Proteus. Really looking forward to the possibilities of combining this sort…
Fun, I love messing around like this myself. MIDI is a different kind of musical power and, combined with your talents for playing with real instruments... well I look forward to the mayhem to come :)
Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
"pastlife laptops and attic instruments" is a composition from 2004 that I wrote to perform with saxophonist Brian Sacawa. This is the pre-recorded electronic part that accompanies a (mostly) written-out saxophone part and an ad libitum improvisation…
A little something that came out of playing with the Max4Live content.
The guitar sound, which I'm particularly happy with is a combination of my GT-10, CamelSpace and the M4L buffer shuffler.
Something I'm working on. I'm a sucker for 5/4 time these days.
The biggest issue is the vocals which are sort of a placeholder right now until I re-write and re-record them, or maybe even find someone who can actually sing to lay something down!
This song is based around a sample that I took of my dish washer. The sample starts out simple enough and then gets more chopped up at the end. The song evolved from there. Also in this song is a new pedal I got that is a photo theremin. You…

Well done sir
All aflame for the Buzzaz: A torch relay of Metaphobias. Got it.
Awesome, can't say I've heard anything quite like it. It really sounds like something unfolding or slowly expanding itself.
Listening again to this piece. Boat-tastic.
Halfway through it did feel like it was the intro to something (cue dry ice, big light show, power chord, let's rock... mebbe!)(I think it's the hi-hat that does this to me, it reminds me of a drummer itching to get going) But, for me, it does actually bring itself to a nice conclusion.

Oh yeah, gorgeous cello sound.
Don't think I'll ever understand this way of making music - but it do make some nice sounds. Cool track.
Thanks for the kind words folks, gave me a lift :)
Not completely daft ;) Awesome track, up there with anything I've heard from the "big names".
Sweet dreams

I too love that cello sound. nice track.
Love the cello. Interesting sample and treatment.
Classy piece of experimentation. Musically superb but I wish I understood more of how it was achieved.
Very cool overture.
I quite like it too! You're right in that it sounds like the beginning of something else, but very enjoyable!
EEEEEEeeeeerie!

Quite lovely!
nicely done!!

Thanks folks, your comments made me smile :)

Took your advice and my ears are now bleeding but happy :)
I for one am grateful for our impending roasting if it inspires you to make such music :)
Enjoyed this very much Erik. Great beat and so many interesting sounds in there.
This is a very odd approach to music.
If they do another remake of War of the Worlds I'm putting your name down for the soundtrack.
Ah, love this.. especially the change just after the 2:00 mark. It seems that, in the right circumstances, schmalz can be a good thing :)
Another sweet track. I hope it won't be too long before you have some more stuff to upload!
I think it's awesome that I have no clue what your "tech" means. Doesn't stop me loving the sound :)
Not a rock fan here but I enjoyed this very much!
Beautiful.
Absolutely love the sound you've created here.
Man I'd love to come here you play this sort of stuff. Fabulous.
I liked it. There's something pleasing about the tension between the lackadaisical vocal style and the distortion on the beats.
Bizarre and terrific. I'd have had no clue what it was if you hadn't said. Great sample. What were you playing it through?
Boy that was great, lovely ambience.
I like it.
Melancholy and touching.
Beautiful. Again the piano is also lovely.
