proposition d'ordre d'écoute ;)

my first track as a new owner of the op-1... I am happy.
I sold it to buy an octatrack already... But I love it when I'm touring.

OP-1 tryout

Amen breakbeat en kit maison dans mon Op-1.
Basses faites un peu à l'arrache..

Mono - Jungle

This was a school project for a course in Montreal.
There were not much rules, just 'create something that is a project'.
It's been a while (commenting 8 years late) but I remember I had this sheet of paper where I had drawn 4 or 5 (Can't remember) steps of something that I cannot name. It looked like, for exemples, rounded lines, then straight ones, then oriented like a wall, then...
I will try to find out because I honnestly always liked this piece very much.
Of course with the baby this sound like being born, but I feel it is also emerge, appear, arise, result, ensue, spring and other semantic siblings. Read more:

I made those by injecting the baby sound loop, into my guitar pedal VOX Tonelab (really crazy effects, but pretty round, there is a lamp 12AX7 inside and many analog effects) that I controlled with my hands for knobs, but also in the meantime with a Max/MSP patch that I build to take over ALL of the controls of the pedal. Check 'Sweet 12b2' commentary if you want info on that.
This is a few one-shots, that are then put together on a DAW.

Flying Earthworm

Humans, Animals, Digital, You and me somewhere between those. Something Ubiic.

Records from McNab's Island in Nova Scotia (Canada), at the end of a one month bike trip. Generously hosted by Anthony James. I didn't know anyone in Canada but in 900 miles I was hosted every night and people always kept real. So this is where I landed for 3-4 days before going back to Montreal and then France. I mean not just the place, but also the state of mind. I hope I could give you something of a far trip here.

McNabs Fireflies

A night jam with instruments made exclusively on PD, played with a sequencer made in PD, with no other modification than synthesis. I wasn't supposed to be out as early, but you can't control your creature... I also programmed a huge program setting and here I only loop on 1 pattern... I am very interested by your comments on my drums synthesis, and everything else as always. Thanks for listening. Composed at 5 AM, will it worst it tomorrow ?....

Instruments made exclusively on Pure Data (Pd), played with a sequencer made in Pd, recorded in Pd, live. As an explanation, it's all created from scratch with oscillators and noise and random and frequency modulations, and other acoustic skills.

Birds sometimes look around

Everything is homemade. Drums synthesized in Pure Data, reversed guitar played head upside down. The loop on the back is played at different speeds and not always linearly.

FIre on the zinc

Housse de guitare ;)
When I listen at this, the drummer is a bit further, and the guitar sound is huge like grumpy clouds, but it is because the guitar is very close ?? Perspective maybe
