I needed 2m02 to finish the album. I was completely spent and without a drop of creative juice left. Just noodling with an Omnisphere patch when one of my cats, Mississippi, jumped on my keyboard and proceeded to walk up and down and sit on various…
A single layer experimental composition using Elysium 0.7.7 playing the Kore 2 instrument 'Abaska Bong' through the 'Hello Repeat' effect from the Kore 2 factory library.
In this track both the tempo and the pulse rate of the generators are…
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…
don't be so hard on yourself. Featuring your home-brewed software deserves mad props! I like this track, and I look forward to your release of Elysium. Good work!
My favorite so far from your 24 hours, the electric guitar sounding sounds are really incredible. I imagine sitting in a dark cave, water-a-dripping, shadows playing across the walls, wide-eyed and alert.
Congrats Matt! I'm on your fourth track, so far an absolute success. This one reminds me of assignments from composition classes back at Oberlin. It's been amazing to hear all of the various sounds and moods powered by your machine o love, Elysium...
A jarring Elysium composition, structurally similar to Komposition-1 but using the Kore 2 instruments "Boesen Buddy" and "Trembling strings" played simultaneously. I think I was also using an osciallator to control note velocity. I need more flexibility…
I'm not quite sure where I was going with this. I love the Abaska Bong sound and was trying to pair it with something complementary. After going through some truly weird combinations I came up with this.

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…

Brilliant project - an astonishing 24 hours!
Very dramatic, sure you didn't sample from a thriller movie? ;-)
I hear a drum and bass beat in my mind when I listen to this. It's a great scene!
Sounds like a haunted merry-go-round. Very cool!
Man I love this stuff.

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.
