Patagonian Dreaming is a song I made for the first sample challenge organized by Full Orchestra. I tried to compose a dreamy feeling between my hunger for new adventures and my need to face my questions and doubts.

Full Orchestra is a curated community of musicians and music lovers. We select a sample together every month to start from the same inspiration. And then, a few weeks later, we all meet for a listening session and to share our compositions with a welcoming crowd.

For this session, we selected a sample recorded by Felix Blum in Patagonia. The farmers of a cattle ranch go into the fields to collect the sheep. They whistle and shout to fear the sheep and put them in the corner of the field until they arrive at the ranch.

Patagonian Dreaming

In November I randomly discovered the song 'Cherish the day' by Sade. '4o4 Choir' started with a trial to mimic the drums' pattern & groove from Sade's track.

It has also been a month of production as we finally ended recording our new album with Antipodes. We ended crafting interludes using the SP404. It made me want to go back to my old 404 sampler in order to destroy this spiritual choir sample from Full Orchestra community.

Sample recorded by zuben
Zuben created a captivating sound effect by combining an electric guitar with Morse code, evoking the feeling of being lost in space.

"Morse code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as standardized sequences of two different signal durations."

This track was composed for the Full Orchestra's sample challenge of February 2024.
The whole track revolves around the idea of rhythm play of short and long duration sounds, trying to mimic the two impulsions used in morse code.
To do so I extracted a part of the original sample that sounded like a synth pad and sliced it more and more rythmically as the song progresses to bring what sounded like an ambient sample into the Braindance/IDM musical territory.
