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…
Music for the mind. Once again a journey is bestowed upon us..one for which I have to say thanks. The collab you did with Sister Savage was great work too.

Initial comment made at 20 secs on hearing my Molly! Then I grabbed the headphones because I suspected I knew what was coming. But no, this is Sandbags. Take equal measures of eerie, crazy and strange, sprinkle with ingenuity and serve with WOAH.

Damn. How on earth do you manage to get all of these separate things to fit together so well?
And reading through the liner notes.... I am in awe of your ability to focus on one piece for so long and what must be an amazing attention to detail. Where can I get me some of that? :)
When I uploaded this last night I thought it was a failure, this morning I am not so sure. I've just listened to it again and, while it fails to live up to my expectations when I started, there's something about it that I like.

Actually...I think the voices sound great! And the fact that the spoken voice (yours?) is incoherent doesn't matter at all. You could be spilling all the secrets of the universe and we wouldn't know, I like that - it's intriguing.

Dark and sinister indeed! I like the use of your voice and the fact this it's incoherent makes it better. OOOOOH! That laughter at the end just caps it off!

I elected to pursue my theme for RPM 2010 even though, ultimately, I decided not to take part.
So I'm going at my own pace, not trying to produce "finished" works, or to be governed by anything except my experimental muse.

Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…
This started with a couple of samples in a new version of Boite Diabolique where the samplers slide over them at different rates and varying granular density. I recorded some of that as I varied the rates and then brought the recording into Live…
@MMI: Boite Diabolique seems to be quite good at creating those kind of movements. It just seems to naturally fall out of working with it. In fact it might be difficult to avoid them :)

I really like choirs and wanted to add something to this track but originally what I had in mind was a low, held, choral "rumble" to add something organic but ominous.
But I couldn't make that work and ended up with these chopped swells drifting in and out instead. Not the same effect at all.

There is stretching involved but not using Paulstretch. I could never make that thing work for me.
With this piece I liked how the click ticks turned into something like breathing.
Come Tomorrow
-
I'm like a tumbleweed, got no roots
I'm like a climbing vine, leaves and chutes
Come tomorrow, I might not be around
Come tomorrow
I'm a reflection, you see me in your mirror
A missed connection, so far and yet right here…

Very cohesive sound collage. I love this.
Well done. Very retro cool.
Wow mega cool mate this is out there dig it.
Clever and complex. Great job combining all the sounds, and still managing to avoid complete dissonance.
I moved my speakers right up next to my head. Really gets the full affect of the L/R. Fun stuff.......
well done sandbags.
My thanks to all those who contributed vocals to this track: GCD, Sudara, Marlena, MMI, La Savage, Robot Molly, Matt Savigear, Wildgeas, and me!
The coordinated chaos of this is impressive! Those layers are pretty wild.
Astounding! :)

Enjoyed that :)
There's something warm about this despite it being a little disorienting to listen to and, yes, some nice squelchy sounds :)

@MTC: lol... thank you
@bethan: probably i need about 50' clearance all around!
Just got around to listening to this and I think your mojo is intact because it's really lovely.
Big noise, I like it!
Growling and full of foreboding. Feel more like hiding behind the sofa than dancing though :)

Lovely to drift along to.
Fun track.
Great track... how many Marlboro's do you smoke to get that voice!?
Great sound mix, love the guitar in there.
Great song.
I'm really enjoying your tracks. Not just the sound but also the kind of relaxed style that seems to totally unlike my own stuff. Excellent.
Love this one, great sound, raw feel, and it that a banjo?
Enjoying your sound.
Lovely, dreamy, sweet sound.
This feels like the soundtrack to "Buck Rogers in the 21st century" re-imagined by Ronald D. Moore. Kudos.
