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…

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!

I had to listen to this again straight away because I love the ambience of the piece. My favourite part is the 60s from 2m40 which is deliciously eerie and more than a little ominous. You've given me lots of ideas.
Instrumentation: fretless bass, tabla, acoustic and distorted acoustic guitar, hang drum samples (courtesy of Sudara), soft synth (AAS Ultra Analog), ambient sample of the jungle (pitched down two octaves) a sprinkle of ebow (from my Sudara files).
Another in my ongoing series of experiments with the Reaktor instrument 'Metaphysical Function'.
This was produced and recorded entirely in Reaktor with the resulting AIFF file converted to MP3 using Fission.
In this piece I start with one…
Heh... i've been listening on monitors (I have a pair of KRK-RP5's) so maybe haven't experienced the full dose of HF myself :)
And Wildgeas, I hope that's a good kind of hurt :)
I told the [good Sister](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) that I wanted to try using vocals in a track and she offered to do me some abstract, stylized, vocals that I could play with and this little number is the result.
Working with wet (pre…
Well now, this is actually a very old track, made back in March '09 and not that long after I started learning piano.
I was learning a very simple 12-bar blues piece and getting bored with the piano sound I started messing about with the Logic…
A skipping CD of children's music, an old accordion with sticky keys, some subterranean drums and synth bass, a departing train. Hoping to achieve some kind of glitchy transcendence through the broken fragments.
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
A long meditation/wank.
This weeks guitar lesson we started looking at melodic minor modes. I went home and started practicing scales. Wasn't long before I got stuck on Dorian flat 2. So I fired up the looper and recorded a session.
Funny…
If it makes you laugh, you're supposed to laugh. If it makes you feel sick, you're meant to feel sick. If you like it, thanks. I saw you in the locker bay. I heard you like Toulouse-Lautrec. and by the way I didn't write the last twenty seconds…
Thank you so much for your comment on my Metamorphosis-1 track. I hope PG would agree since I do love his music and would hate to think I'd cause him offence.
This is one of several beat tracks for my new piece "Z-Land" for string orchestra, amplified string quartet, and DJ. The full piece will be performed by the Zeeland High School Orchestra (from Zeeland, MI) November 20 at the Baltimore City school…
Still under construction. Or maybe not. Bassline might be replaced by a real bass, maybe, and I'm not sure if I'll keep the Ableton Live softsynths as I may replace them with hardware. Maybe. I could just end up leaving it the way it is.
The exquisite bass was performed by my friend Edo Castro, but everything else was done on a Waldorf XTk.
In fact, originally the bass line was from an entirely other recording. What I did was to mute the other tracks and record all new ones…
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
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.

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
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.
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!!

Great track and I love the piano on here, fantastic.
I've listened through and love the cool, laid back chic, of your pieces. Great sound and style.
Woah... loved this, very immersive.
This is really fabulous, love the sound, love the playing. Sad when it ended, but you'll upload more won't you? :)

Ahh.. the creepy music box at the end top's it off horribly :)
What Kirk said.
Oh, this is a bit different. Love the way the track builds up and then decays at the end.

Rock isn't a genre I'll listen to often but I liked this.
Thanks folks. I had a lot of fun with this.
@lokakuunmaa: what an awesome comment mate, thank you :) It happens that Apollo is my favourite Eno album evar!
What a wonderful concoction.
Encore!
*joins applause*
Totally hypnotic.

This is great Erik, love it!
Liked this one a lot. I'm not sure if it would sound better with hardware and a different bassline. Sounded pretty cool to me as it is :)
Lovely sound.
