OneAmbient4 - A Single Line (Naviarhaiku 375)

How 'bout no

Kirill techno

As in the title.
Live impro (mono synth) on my new hardware machine: 4 D-Two's, here with 4 sec delay, reduced to stereo. Not for headphones actually.
While I was not trying to do that, I came very close to what I was playing in '78-79 with an electrified violin, two 4-Trk tape recorders and four speakers. Time does fly, but some things stay with you.

I was 12 years old when the video game Deus Ex Machina was published. I must have played it maybe a couple years later, but still as an impressionable young man :-)

It was weird and awesome, a video game that came with a "real" music soundtrack on the same audio cassette. Incredibly fascinating to me, I remember it as a mystic experience.

This is my cover of "I Am Machine", first song from the game soundtrack, written by Mel Croucher, with the original (and amazing) vocals by Donna Bailey.

I hope my version does justice to the magic that this masterpiece of computing and entertainment history represents.

--

An amazing little piece of software, called Spleeter, was used to extract the vocals. The rest (beat, synths, and vocoder) was all done in Caustic. Plus a healthy dose of Korg iWaveStation for those extra-cheesy '90s sounds.

Artwork: based on original artwork from the Deus Ex Machina video game.

All that I did not understand, Story of an afternoon and Under Antonio Ceriani / Tutto quello che non ho capito, Storia di un pomeriggio e Sotto Antonio Ceriani

These three songs are constructed in a very similar way, practically recording short guitar patterns and creating loops by re-editing them and processing them with the same outboard. They were also the easiest tracks of the selection to restore as they were kept on multi-track format. All three tracks are directly inspired by Pietro Puccio's paintings. Between the distressing expectation of Under Antonio Ceriani and the lazy and lukewarm pace of the Story of an afternoon, my favorite has always been All that I did not understand, with that mass of unknown emerging from the depths of the canvas and swallowing all the forms and colors.
***

Questi tre brani sono costruiti in modo molto simile, in pratica registrando dei brevi pattern di chitarra e creando loop rimaneggiandoli e passandoli dagli stessi macchinari. Sono stati anche i più facili della raccolta da restaurare in quanto tenuti in multi-traccia. Tutti e tre i brani sono ispirati direttamente da dei quadri di Pietro Puccio. Tra l'attesa desolante di Sotto Antonio Ceriani e il pigro e tiepido incedere di Storia di un pomeriggio, il mio preferito è sempre stato Tutto quello che non ho capito, con quella massa di ignoto che emergeva dal fondo della tela e ingoiava le forme e i colori.

Brightening a Dark, Wet, Day (disquiet0466)

for this track I first auditioned and downloaded multiple parts from freesound.org, from textures and synth noises to radio tunings (all creative commons free licences - see below for a comprehensive list). These where assembled into a drum rack in ableton and randomly triggered. I set random velocities which would trigger the sample offsets to create added variety. Furthermore I used live 11's new PitchLoop89 effect to create an active stereo mix.

The Politics Of Turbulence [disquiet0478]

A lost child crying
stumbling over the dark fields…
catching fireflies

The haiku of the week is by Yoshida Ryusui (1691-1758). Very little is known about him, except he’s often cited and quoted as a poet who exemplified the key element in haiku of kireji or cutting word.
