I read about the technique, used by Steve Reich, of playing multiple copies of the same audio at different speed to create phase differences.
I decided to do a little experiment and built myself a Reaktor ensemble using 3 granular sampler units…
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.

THIS IS SICK. Thanks for the props on my new stuff, too. I got the glitched out sounds by time stretching some old woman talking and offsetting multiple takes of the same clip. Thanks again.

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!

Yeah boy! This one has the potential to be a real groovin' tune.. even flirts with club (don't throw your shoe at me if it offends you).. I too can here a 4-floor beat jump in around 02:20 or so.. drop off at 03:45 and picks back up right before 04:00..looking forward to wherever you take this-- I'm really liking your rhythmic/atmospheric direction..
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…

Today I gave a quickie demo of Live to my guitar instructor. I started with an empty set and threw some crap at the wall just to show him one of the work flows.
Later, when I brought the thing home I couldn't leave well enough alone and started…

Uploaded a new version which fixes the drums although there's still a feedback problem (related to MIDI timing I think) that needs to be fixed in a final mix.

Okay this is the problem with mixing being "throw a mastering channel strip on it, bounce, upload". At some point about the 2 minute mark the drums track have cut out - probably overloaded Reaktor again. So then you get 2:30 that is largely just the bass.
A little study using Dmin6 and Dmin7 with a little D dorian dressing.

When you do this kind of track it evokes a feeling of travelling without moving.
It reminds me of being a passenger in a car on a motorway at night, slightly tired and letting the world glide, carelessly, past me.
I've always liked that feeling.
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
This is sooo beautiful! I'm drifting, I'm floating, I'm dreaming... w;-)
That's so relaxing! I'll keep an eye out for your library contribution.
This is so so so so oh so gorgeous...
This is wonderful. I think I could listen to this for hours. I used to spend a lot of time listening to Glass and Reich, thanks for reminding me.
Quite hypnotic- I like!
yeah, this is awesome... I too could listen to this all day
Very soothing. I could listen to this all day... I might just try.
Oh...my. Beautiful! Like the moment before the release of total madness.
THIS IS SICK. Thanks for the props on my new stuff, too. I got the glitched out sounds by time stretching some old woman talking and offsetting multiple takes of the same clip. Thanks again.
very well constructed. Some great sounds where do you get them
I tell you what, Sandbags, you made mixing history with this one!
Damn it! Now I'm gonna have to sleep with the lights on! w;-)
Ooooh! I'm scared now! Lovely- in a disturbing way of course!
Creaky zombie feasty noises. Am hungry now. Brrrring me a villager.
Yeah- groovin' indeed! Like it!
the new additions are great! definitely groovin' there!
Great rhythm, Sandbaggio.
Superb work. On your way to churning out the club hits :-) /me ducks the shoe :-)
Oh Yeah- this is headed somewhere good alright! Love the beats

Welcome Seth :)
Perfect Sunday morning track.
Oh man that was great.
ack...foo... no edits... channelling...
I believe Sister is channel the shorts... or something :)
That was rather fun :)
Love your sound.
Love this.
I enjoyed this one very much.
Cool sound.
What an awesome track, I love this.
Awesome track man, this puts me in mind of my beloved Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks. Kudos to you!
Very chilled. Bring on the full track.
I'm really liking your stuff and happy to see a fellow Logic user!

Fabulous sound. Liked this one very much.
I love the hauntingly distant piano's you've created here. Very much.
I was so totally there. Awesome.
