O dulcis electe

IchBenMaghrebMix002 (momdirtypick-up)

This was a fun one. As it was a cloudy day, I was moodier than usual. So I opted for some dark and melancholic sounds from the Lyra, Buchla Easel and a bit of brightness from the Wing Pinger. The Easel and Wing Pinger where fead into a decaying tape loop effect. For the recording I set up my phone in another room, a zoom recorder in the studio, my laptop (recording directly into Logic) and direct to my Tascam recorder. I then played back part of the result and recorded with a really crappy dictaphone from the previous century and then played that back into another channel on Logic through my laptops internal microphone. Aside from minimal panning, I did not add any effects and decided to keep the squeaks and rummaging noises as I went from place to place to turn on the various recorders.

This was more challenging than I had anticipated. My take on "music listening to itself" was to use my matrix mixer to have two loopers both to listen and record each other's loops in an endless feedback cycle. This required great restraint on my part, given that anything more than a few minimal inputs would result in a muddied wash in a few seconds. So this piece is basically made up of a couple of gentle taps on the Soma Terra, followed by some sustained notes from it and also the Buchla Music Easel, set to a very low volume. The result is a typical ambient drone, punctuated every now and then by some textures and bright accents. Not the most original by any means, but a good learning experience for me. Thanks again for making me challenge myself and learn how to use my equipment!
