the last improvisation of a sonic adventure...

Untitled #1

Created using a groove box, stand-alone synth and mastered on a computer.  Got to get a remix.  The mastering drove me nuts.   Getting it right on the groove box level will not achieve the mix that I want.  I don’t want to use a daw.

Empty House Once Full Of Life (naviarhaiku512)

I received the great honor and I am extremely grateful that the great soprano Mrs. Gabriele Weinfurter - Zwink recorded the solo of my Ave-Maria and that MyOpus (Gerhard Richter) mixed it so beautifully with the choir.

Ave Maria, gratia plena;
Dominus tecum;
benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus
nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

REGRESSION.

Calm Before - a powerful, yet quiet track with a nice baseline in the back and soft but fat drums. This track moves forward in a certain way, but remains rather static in its basic mood. Hopeful but decisive in focus: the Beat. I wish you a lot of fun diving into the SKAYBA sound world.

Calm Before

Inspired by:

a splash of colour
cherry tree petals drifting
silently falling

Naviar haiku challenge 585, details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

The construction of this one is quite minimal, just two elements. Even though the track was performed and recorded in a single take it does have two distinct phases. 

The opening "Splash of colour" section was achieved with a simple VCV Rack virtual modular patch and a lot of experimental modulation, I used some external compression to even it out somewhat. With the modulation dialled back to little or nothing the same patch becomes a backdrop for the "Petals drifting" conclusion. For this I live improvised sparce single notes; very simple VCV patch piped to the Blackhole reverb from Eventide.
