Logic's noise gate and vocal transformer are my new best friends. I really enjoyed messing with them and thought I'd have another go.
I've always quite liked pulsing ambient and it seemed to come naturally. This time we have Rytme playing Kore…
This is a very simple composition using two Elysium generators with an oscillator controlling the pulse count of the first and the offset of the second. Elysium is playing Kore 2's "Abendstern" instrument through a multi-compressor effect called…
After yesterdays experiment with noise gates and vocal transformers I thought I'd have another go using Rytme as the source material.

I thought I would try a slower piece so Rytme is running at 90BPM and I have introduced a density function that allows me to create sparser pieces.
MIDI from Rytme is going to a single track in Logic hosting Kontakt 3 with the Soniccouture…

A second experiment with my new Rytme sequencer. This time Rytme is being fed into Logic to a track containing Kore 2 which is, in turn, hosting Kontakt 3 and the lovely Guzheng from Soniccouture (I bought the instrument before the new year but…

Okay so I enjoyed doing Glubotism1 enough that I thought I'd take a second crack at it. Same tools but took a different approach to how I used Stylus RMX and I introduced some of it's built-in effects on some of the parts. Also I bused RMX and…
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…
thanks for listening to the glubotic RPM! This morning, I just gave it my first listen since March and I started getting excited about working on an updated version. it's interesting to see who favors which tracks.

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
Hrmm... where did my reverb tail get to...
you really got something good here, I love the sounds and the ambient you created
wow!
Love the sound, and love the way you achieved it!
Laid back feel and interesting sound design elements.
The kind of music that put my mind on somewhere that I feel that visited in person but I don't know where is .......
I love it!
you are a super class sound designer with these experiments. I'd love to incorporate your work in some future mixes.
Yeah this works for me too. Great while I'm working - it's really nice to concentrate to this.
You've hit on something special here.
Damn, this is Funky with a capital F. Had me getting freaky in my chair.
oh yeah! like the beat... Bom chk! Bom chk! --bp bp --bp bp
Another success, nice one.
Your happy morning is a joy to hear! I need to get more effects.
Thanks Sister, best comment evar!
Damn, you make me want to make a short film about beautiful oriental ladies, slighting young but highly over-reaching suitors.
I thought that was a real Kora for a while there. Nicely done!
think I might do another mix of this... keeping the integrity of this track this time.
thanks for listening to the glubotic RPM! This morning, I just gave it my first listen since March and I started getting excited about working on an updated version. it's interesting to see who favors which tracks.
these Guzheng tracks are awesome. could listen to a series of these while writing/reading... good mood music.

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.
