Very nice to hear this track.  Beautiful and sensitive guitar work.  Feeling here a lot of peace and comfort.  We really need this sounds these days

Indeed, the less you do, the more your mind is at rest, but as I often say, it must be at rest, but "awake"! It's the balance you have to find! Very beautiful work that I greatly appreciate!  ❤️Love, 🕊️Peace, 🙏Respect

Here's a track edited from our fourth Lockdown '21 collaboration series, recorded live at home 28/01/21.

Most of the sounds here are highly modified field recordings of things like a washing machine, old piano strings and other things that go bump and clang! 

It starts quite dark and moody, before Gillie brings in a brighter dreamy sound half way through and things become quite serene... for a bit ;-)

One Drop

June

This is a study of a method of generating chords from a single sine wave. Each note of a random melody gets divided into 8 new tones, comprising the first 8 undertones of that note. Plus a bunch of other modulation and stuff to make it sound good (at least to my ears). This is a recording of one "performance" of the patch, and is not edited or post-processed in any way. Made in VCVRack; not my first patch, but my first decent patch starting from scratch.

You can get this patch at https://patchstorage.com/stations-of-the-tide/ if you want to try it yourself, or make it into something else. Click the Run button on Clockd to get it started.

The title comes from Michael Swanwick's novel of the same name.

Stations of the Tide

Acoustic Evening Mood

Pieza compuesta en agosto de 2021 a partir de grabaciones bioeléctricas de hongos realizadas por Michael Prime.
_
I have a new collaboration with Michael Prime, we have made an album with recordings made from mycelia.
_
"These sounds were produced by living fungi, Shitake mushrooms still attached to their mycelial bodies. A mushroom is actually the fruiting body of a fungus, the ‘body’ of which consists of the mycelium, a network of rootlike structures that run through the substrate (the log, compost, sawdust etc.). A mushroom still connected to a growing mycelium produces a varied and interesting rhythm, while a mushroom that has been picked produced only a static tone. All living organisms produce a faint electrical current, which constantly fluctuates according to the state of the organism. This current can be amplified and used as a control signal for an oscillator, producing a sound which directly reflects the state of the organism".

🔮 Chakra Healing with Music 963Hz Manifesting Inner Harmony 🎶💫

While working on this assignment, I found out once again how incredibly hard it is to do very little: Since music for meditation should allow for emptying the mind. It should not distract. And yet, there should be something there that helps one get into a spiritual, contemplative mood, let any thoughts pass and then, a state of non-thinking, of pure presence.

As a consequence, music for this purpose should/can have several properties:

Modal - which allows a stable, calm state of mind

Quietness and space - making sure the music doesn't overwhelm, neither by quantity nor by information overload

Far-eastern sound connotations - As in many "spiritual" purpose-made music releases, this seems to aid obtaining a certain mood, often by raga-type sounds, or sounds that get used in "puja" ceremonies in India (and heard in yoga/spiritual paraphernalia shops all over in places such as Rishikesh).


Since all of these are optional anyway - and are cliché-ridden on top of that -- I chose to simply use an electric guitar, for drone-like sounds, and after considering sitar-like moves, opted against those (for reasons of economy). Everything got recorded into Logic Pro, with generous helpings of delay and reverb, obviously.
I layered six guitar tracks (plus one track for the chime) on top of each other and tried for them not to get into each others' way too much, to allow for the composition to consist of very little information.
Enjoy your meditation!
