Aftermaths

Synthesizers (8 tracks, mostly arpeggiators)

for this challenge: Creative Destruction
The Assignment: Show how you got to a tortured sound.

Step 1: Through some multi-step process, arrive at a complicated, tortured sound. Keep track of how you got there.

Step 2: Record a piece beginning with the end result: that complicated, tortured sound. Then transition to the start of the process and build back up to the end result, slowly repeating how you got you there.

I created a very slow nice and tame, sequence with several arpeggiators playing complementary riffs in C minor. 

To produce the tortured sound I just accelerated the master 6X.

I respected the instructions, so it is in mirror:
Chaos/Fast - Calm/Slow - Chaos/Fast 
This is how it goes, for the tortured souls that really want to listen to this:
00:00 Count down
00!01 Start at  fastest tempo, all tracks playing at once
00:12 All tracks playing, slow down starts
00:27 Slow tempo, tracks start to mute one by one
00:59 Slow tempo, basic track remains and the build up starts, each track (re)entering in turns
02:27 All tracks playing
03:10 Acceleration starts
03:39 we arrive to the beginning's tempo, and finish

This is my submission for this week's Disquiet assignment.

The two people playing together here are different instances of myself -- the experimental electronics guy of recent years, and the "traditional" guitarist of yesteryear. They had this jam when they met.

Enjoy the duo, and here's some more insight about this project:

bio here:
http://dedeland.com/daniel-diaz-bio/


In some words:
Composer, arranger, producer, multi-instrumentalist. Born in Argentina,
I studied music in Buenos Aires, New York, Boston, Los Angeles and Paris.

For 20 years, I developed an important career as a session and backing musician in Argentina and Europe, playing, among other instruments, the bass, touring and recording with many jazz, rock, fusion, world, Latin and tango bands.

At the same time, I worked as an arranger, producer and musical director with many projects and artists in the USA, Argentina and Europe.

From 1992 to 1997, I performed my compositions live with my own band in Buenos Aires and began a solo recording career with the worldwide release of my first album "The Years Alone" on the North American label Green Linnet/Xenophile. On this album I arranged and performed 11 of my songs written between 1986 and 1993. I played most of the instruments, but included guest appearances by some great South American players.

My recording career continued with "Segundo Ciclo" (1997), released worldwide by Timeless Records, and 12 more albums released between 2000 and 2016.

Currently, I work as an on-demand film/TV composer while continuing to play live and produce.
