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.

I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…
Ok, I have decided to put it here. It is a stretch containing several ideas, it falls apart here and there (especially at 3:10), but I think the atmosphere shines through.
Hope I can return to it in a couple of weeks (when my head is clear…
I really enjoyed this track, it's got a great groove and lovely sound. I didn't notice anything untoward around 3:10 although I confess I wasn't listening totally focused so maybe I missed something. For a work in progress I'd have to say this sounded pretty polished and I look forward to future mixes.

For improv friday
This is part 2 - see Keys at Lowes for an explanation of what I'm trying to do.
Ok, another try using base frequencies of 0.1, 3, 10, 17, 33 and 48 Hz spread in stereo space plus some of the original mixed in. (additional…
This is right up my street, you're really getting some fabulous timbres out of this. I tried the improvFriday site a couple of weeks ago but really had no idea what I was doing.

I did an experiment using Paul's Extreme Stretch harmonics function and Audacity.
I took a raw field recording (included here field recording http://notonlymusic.com/board/download/file.php?id=1187 ) and ran it through…

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.

I can't put it any better than m'friend & colleague WS.
I'm still trying to get my head around improvFriday but I'm definitely going to give it another try if I can listen to you playing this kind of stuff!
Love your new sound :)
This isn't the kind of thing I'd normally go for but i like the sound and, as osckilo says, vibe you've got going on in this track.
Fun stuff.
Nice... and too short :)
Good stuff.
Great loop!
Well I enjoyed this.
Sounds good to me man!
Great track Bruce, really enjoyed that.
Cool sound.

Great song guys.
Enjoyed that.
Wish I could come along to one of your rehearsals!
Great track, esp. love the section starting around ~1:45 and the bass, and the synth, and oh everything :)
Oh man, i was just getting into that when it faded..!

Arthur C. Clarke once wrote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". This was truly magical my friend :)
