I set myself the challenge of making a track this evening. I've uploaded it with 2 minutes to spare.
I started out with a wind chime instrument in Kontakt. I sequenced it using the PX-18 sequencer and then fed three different version of it…
I've been learning this Fats Waller style "stride" blues piece since *forever* but I'm finally getting it. Still have the last two bars to learn but here's a rendition of the part I've learned on an underwater marimba. I was accompanied on bells…
Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
Another test of the Reichatron on a flute sample. The signal chain for version 1 of the ensemble is now completely worked out and only some details of the beat mode controls for navigating the loop around the sample remain.
This time I employ…

Just messing around with voices and Yottskry. Here I am using it in Live and feeding 3 different vocal clips at a time. It's pretty slow getting going but I think it rewards (for some value of 'reward') listening all the way through.

This begins with an impressionable young man, looking for strange and exotic flowers on the sea bed. He's new to these waters and is taking chances in darker depths. His mind begins to drift as he dares himself deeper...does he begin to see a city in the watery landscape? Mermen - flying about on underwater jetbikes with beautiful sea goddesses, drenched, but holding on to their blue/grey torsos? The lost bell chimes as he catches his breath...will he ever return to the surface?

I just finished reading Citizen Vince by Jess Walter and at one point in it the protagonist meditates a little on hearing people speak without listening... nevermind, my brain is just connecting this track with the musings of that character.

Hey, this is really cool. I'm transported into the ventilation ducts of an alien spaceship listening to the extra-terrestrials gently talking to each other. **added to favourites**

Otherwise known as the 'opus'. This song was my life for a good year. Left forgotten in the dusty hills of Santa Fe. This is pretty much the A section :)
I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
Well I *had* intended to try doing something different this week.
So technically I succeeded.
It's solo piano again, but I had to teach my left hand how to play this somewhat syncopated bass line, before I could actually compose against it…
Very nice. With respect to your question I am still very much a beginner with piano but I am being taught Blues and that seems to involve a lot of interesting bass lines. Maybe that might be something to check out?
I was trying to tune my radio into a station I picked up, just for an instant, but I found it hard to keep a lock on it, I kept getting strange interferences.
From what I could hear it sounded like someone sent [MMI](http://alonetone.com/mmi…
I excel at disappearing for long stretches, eh?
I think with this I'm officially committing to doing FAWM.
And R.I.P. my songwriting drought. August 27th, 2009 - February 1st, 2010.
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
How could I not love something made with the sweat of my brow (and for once there really was a lot of sweat!). I enjoyed what you've done arranging the Reichatron output with other parts. This is fun :)
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
Incredible ventriloquism. The crispies kept me looking up and all around. Ah, I sound weird...
who?
also excellent... My favourite tracks of yours seem to occupy a space somewhere between the artificial/synthetic and the organic.
Very cool
Very nice; I think this is my favourite track on this album!
Great track cool sounds.
Underwater smokey. The mermaids are throwing their scales at you.
This track is kind of Floydish and kind of Kraftwerkish...and very cool. Thanks for checking out my recent track :)
This is way cool mate great sounds magic. And thanks for your comments mate.
Ear candy par excellence! Captivating stuff!

PFC! Pretty Fuckin' Cool.

Great sounds mate very cool.
Very cool effects!

Very cool! Amazingly melodic!
Ha! Splendid vocal blurblation. I think I even recognize myself beginning around 1 minute-ish. :D
Sweet!! Its like the mind of a cylon! Yeah I know Im a nerd!!

I am a sucker for good solo piano, this is lovely.
My thanks to all those who contributed vocals to this track: GCD, Sudara, Marlena, MMI, La Savage, Robot Molly, Matt Savigear, Wildgeas, and me!

Hopefully Reichatron will go live early next week. I can't upload it to the UL myself as it's too big, but NI have offered to do it.
This is wonderfully dark and beautiful. I think it would be quite something to hear it live!
I don't know from chord progressions but it sounds pretty good to me!
I don't see what needs re-recording but you know best. Really good, can't believe how quickly 9:20 slipped by :)
Love this, I can't quite put my finger on it, but it has a wistful quality that I found very moving.
Sounds like I am going to enjoy your RPM album a lot!
Beautiful! Not wasting any time getting started are you? :-)
Fab playing you guys, I could listen to this for hours.
Beautiful.
I love it, warts and all. Maybe especially for the warts :)
Wonderful sound. More experiments to come?
That was beautiful.
Was that your Boss GT-10 at work? Very dark and brooding.

Lovely, perfect for a still, frosty, night.
Love this one, lovely sounds.
Well, I would never have expected to enjoy this - not the kind of thing I would normally listen to at all - but I did. Great stuff!
