A second experiment with my new Rytme sequencer. This time Rytme is being fed into Logic to a track containing Kore 2 which is, in turn, hosting Kontakt 3 and the lovely Guzheng from Soniccouture (I bought the instrument before the new year but…
your tracks are cool. good sounds and production. i'm wondering if you could add dynamic control to your programming giving more volume shape/build to your tracks.
Being as I am in something of a musical trough of despair (it's not as much fun as it sounds) right now I thought I'd try messing with my TMA-2 Reaktor instrument and try and coax some better results from it.

In a very good way this conjures up mid fifties Japanese short films. A bulldozer dragging a reluctant refrigerator through the dump. Seagulls argue over someone's sandwich and a young boy rides his bicycle as if he were on a magical horse. (all shot in grainy black and white on somebody's Mom's super-eight.
Thanks Mr. Bagszins

well, highly experimental, no doubt about that; and it does carry some underlaying structure. not quite steady though, but it is there, yes. - and overall, it has a very interesting contemporary flavor..
I think I may have gone too far!
I've been working on the Reichenbach signal chain to include filtering, distortion, EQ, and a resonator. I've also switched out the delay and gone hog wild with modulation.
This piece shows how way out the…
This is made with a very experimental Reaktor instrument I am building.
It uses a very simple particle collision model with 64 particles in a 100x100 box. When two particles collide they trigger a sampler to play a slice of either of two samples…
nicely disturbing; maybe a tad too linear here and there, but that's certainly due to the formula. - i wonder if this could work with superformula and if so, what would be the output..
I'm not quite sure where I was going with this. I love the Abaska Bong sound and was trying to pair it with something complementary. After going through some truly weird combinations I came up with this.
Another in my series of evolving sonic noise experiments.

@MannequinRaces: Reaktor is still a great tool for experimenting with sound design and, as a bonus, you get a fantastic range of great instruments and effects. It does require some effort to learn and the program has some issues but it's totally worth it.
Thanks for your suggestions about creating space. You're right in that I just went for the first fast panning preset I liked and it is kind of monotonous after a while.
When I was working mostly in Logic I used to automate volume a lot which can also create space. But this is something I don't find as natural in Ableton. I think it's a consequence of the Session/Arrangement dichotomy that I'm not as happy with yet.
I'm working on something new & again using TMA-2 as one of my sources. I'll see if I can do a better job with it.
I thought it might be interesting to post the source material I used in the track [IX](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/ix-2). This is the file generated by my TMA-2 instrument that I processed to make IX.

Another slice of Reaktor based weirdness from the particle collider ensemble I am tentatively naming TMA-2.
You can't tell from how it sounds I guess but the latest development is that particle energy now governs velocity, i.e. more energetic…

(Drool) Okay, I've always known that I've wanted to give Reaktor a shot but now I really want to try it out! Great stuff. I have no idea how to ad more space in something like this but I like it the way it is. My only suggestion to try out sometime is to vary the panning. Seems like the panning (ping pong effect) is pretty consistent. I would try varying it more (like faster panning for a bit, then slower, etc..). Anyways cool stuff!

RE
The samples were not carefully chosen just a few random snippets I had lying around and some vocal samples I've been collecting for another project. I just needed something to feed into it.
so long as it isn't our brainwaves! hehe. I'm lookig forward to hearing, and seeing what else you do with this

Fun sound prototype.
Part of “The big crash of '07” album. Which is a collection of mostly prototypes of songs that are lost because of a harddrive failure. C'est la vie.
This is one of the prototypes I miss most. It was going to be a great song I'm sure…
Nowadays we would probably have pulled or severely altered the idea for the trancy synth and the electric guitar though.
There are some vocals which weren't…
about a circus that self destructs and the damage left in it's wake. Yes, it's a weird and/or dark subject but as the lyrics are unintelligible it probably won't upset anybody.
Each time I sit down to learn something about Logic, I end up getting distracted and creating some kind of track...
This one uses EFM1 -> Delay Designer -> Live Cut
Some drums through similar craziness

great work sandbags,
very extraterrestrial! nice work.
I think you got something to work with here. It put me in a trance. Day dreaming sort of thing. Cool sounds Mr. Bags.
well, highly experimental, no doubt about that; and it does carry some underlaying structure. not quite steady though, but it is there, yes. - and overall, it has a very interesting contemporary flavor..
oldie but goodie.

well trying to write my own song
sounds awesome in the 'phones.

Once again, killer stuff. Love what you're doing here.
This is heaven. I love shit like this!

I prefer the source....but this is interesting as well.
I knew he was sending images into our heads wildgeas. hehe. I'll have to listen to the other tracks you did with this one sandbags.
Spacey man. Your buggin' me out. There's something crawling on me. It has teeth.
Thanks for your comment on Sunday Looping mate. You have a great weekend. Cheers.
This is cool too. Hmmm. Eenie-meanie...

Fab track and great name.
This one's brilliant. Your whole 24hrs album is really a fantastic achievement!
Also awesome!
Brilliant track, all the better for how it was made.
Very whacky, very cool :)
How did I miss this? Love it :)
Love this one!
So happy you've uploaded this track. Been waiting to favourite this monster! :)
Great to see your music on here alloy, cool beans :)
Wow... MMI had this about right I think... quite charming and totally batty. I enjoyed it :)
Weird, glitchy, I love it :)
Love the sound and the changes throughout. Very cool.
This track is brilliant. Love it.
Great sound you've got here.
Great mix.
Loved this piece.
Love this one.
"High-energy sonic oddness." I like it :)
Great sound, great feel :)
I love the sound you create here, wonderful.
