This track is the result of putting Kavin's excellent track [Propitiation](http://alonetone.com/kavin/tracks/propitiation) through my Steve Reich style phased looper.
It's a beautiful piece but also quite a sparse sound which lead me to think…

Space Trumpet was an excuse to try out my new plugin "Little Spacey" from Expert Sleepers and also to exercise the Kore sounds from Acoustic Refractions.
MIDI was supplied via IAC from Reaktor using Lazyfish's Spiral sequencer. The project…
So one too many coffee's and I have insomnia, I decided to mess about with my prototype sequencer Rytme and one of the Logic piano presets (Piano Motion).
I came up with this piece (in the key of A Major) which is rather repetitive (a quality…

Thank you for the lovely comments about my recent track.
I really like the percussive sounds in this they really create a great upbeat vibe for the whole track.
I wanted to make a track for halloween but technology problems and time have conspired that I didn't get very far.
However I'm uploading the first couple of minutes of what I have.
Have a spooky night!
I like this. I am a Sci-Fi fan and this could be a soundtrack of the next Sci-Fi movie. I imagine starships moving slowing through a crowded space with planet earth in the background. This might be the opening scene.
I've been listening to the output of my *Reichenbach* Reaktor ensemble all morning as it loops and phase shifts a recording of Erik Satie's solo piano piece Gnossiennes-1
I find it to be quite beautiful and entrancing and I decided to render…
Another in my series of experiments with the Reaktor ensemble Metaphysical Function.
I used two instances of Metaphysical Function to generate a soundscape that was bounced to audio, chopped up, and re-arranged.
The whole thing was rather…

This is my first run through the 7th Goldberg variation. It's been about a month since I started practicing it. This is the first time I "made it"—meaning, it's a bit fumbling and pushes and pulls, but hey, I hit all the notes!
I've played…
2nd in my series of granular/glitch piano creations.
This time I am trying out a new instrument called Cumulus with a sample from SoundIron Emotional Piano. I setup the scene points and let the internal sequencer run, then put it through Audio…
First demo of the finished Novaphone 340 Grand instrument (v1.0.4) including some of the sample content that will be released with the final instrument. In this case I used 5 samples of a Reaktor based drone generator by [nofi](http://soundcloud…
Really nice Bruce.
I do wish I could figure out improvFriday. Every time I think about it I go to the site and have no clue what to do next or how people upload or even if they are welcome to. It's all so baffling.
Something I've been listening to this morning on repeat so I thought I would record and share it.
At heart it's two instances of the Morpheus metallophone instrument layered together with some nice verb and a bit of compression.
One of the…
A micro-tonal piece made using one instance of the Novaphone 340 ("Imperial") playing 3 piano samples from SoundIron's "Emotional Piano 2.0".
The samples were sequenced using a MIDI keyboard using the Novaphone Micro-8 scale (1/8 semitone per…
Some kind of rap-music. Made with a little bit tongue in cheek approach. I've filtered the rap artists voice so much that i'd rather leave his name unpublished.
Sometime yesterday, sandbags posted "In the Ocean of Night".
Fuelled by a lovely walk and some pints, I was inspired to make some additions.
Technical/process details:
Guitar was my Michael Kelly going into GT-10 which had compressor, delay…
Loved this as soon as I heard it. You've really nailed the crunchy yet spacey guitar texture and I think the two blend well together. Greater than the sum of it's parts!
This is the first piece made with a Reaktor instrument I built today that I have called "Xylo".
Xylo is a sampler that plays a region of the sample back and forth with a 10s release time. Each note defines a region of a different length (but…

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…
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
well done mate like it
Nicely done mate
I think this one worked out really well. A definite grower.
Interesting. Tends to bring out elements that just whizz by in the original. Cool, thanks.
Thanks Mr.Sandbags. More live stuff to come real soon.
excellent...man, I love this.
I'm really liking rytme and elesium. Both very cool and complimentary to each other and composition in general.
Thank you for the lovely comments about my recent track. I really like the percussive sounds in this they really create a great upbeat vibe for the whole track.
Cool sounds and textures!

I like it too. Intriguing.
Talking Sun, shinin'. Matt's style
Wow cool sounds mate. Thanks for your recent comment and no there is no washboard, played around with the beatbox and that's what came.
Nice one mate that certainly has potential.
And what a rhythmic sun it is. Very cool (especially for a sun). Vox please.
Much better the second time around. I feel good!!!
Very very cool. But I didn't have you pegged as a reggae fan. Ya think you know someone... :-)
Holy crap. Glad I didn't listen this last night.
Infectious rhythm! Great stuff!
def. one of my favorites that you have done.
Comments made by Mr Sandbags
Bravo! Bravo!
I think it's too long, not enough variation, and needs at least some filtering. Might try a cello next time, or maybe a harmonica.
@Bethan: thanks... something like "Passing of the comet" would have been a much better title :)
@igor: it's often the way with poetry, no? But you offer an interesting historical footnote :) But, in a sense, the poem is a distraction.
Really nice Bruce. I do wish I could figure out improvFriday. Every time I think about it I go to the site and have no clue what to do next or how people upload or even if they are welcome to. It's all so baffling.
Like I said for the demo, really strong track with a great sound & vocal. I like this one very much.
@igor: words fail me :) @sister: thank you :)
@Bethan: thanks... my imagery was of drifting far out on the edge of the solar system. A very similar feel... down in the inky depths.
Like your sound and the vocal, good track.
That's pretty cool. Wasn't sure what to expect, but I like it.
That was quite a trip!
Cool track.
Loved this as soon as I heard it. You've really nailed the crunchy yet spacey guitar texture and I think the two blend well together. Greater than the sum of it's parts!
Really cool. Geas is right, but you gotta play the UK!!
@wg: My plan to have Professor Plum take the fall has come to naught I see :)
@bethan: thanks, that's an evocative image, i like it.
@Johnny: thanks, i think it shows some promise :)
Grungy and great!
@Sis: Have to be careful of things swooping on you strangely :)
Even your rehearsals are ACE! :)
