2022 Tracks

Simple short peaceful track using Ravenscroft 275 played via GeoShred

#074 Spare Peace

What happens when a band has no leader?
IBassist is driving the Bass plus Rock Drummer and Soft Drummer.
Also (with suitable Note Range Filtering in AUM)…
Ravenscroft 275 via ChordJam
BeatHawk Pizzicato Strings via ChordJam
BeatHawk Strings via Rozeta Scaler
SWAM Bass Trombone via Rozeta Scaler
Then ChordJam was played (by me) to add…
SWAM Bass Trombone, Baritone Sax, Bass Clarinet, Euphonium and Bass Tuba.
Finally SWAM Tenor Sax was added via GeoShred

#075 Take Me To Your Leader

Troglodytes troglodytes is a big name for a very small bird, the Wren.
I’ve been watching one build a nest in some ferns by the side of a small stream for the last week and it inspired me to create this piece.
The first and last sections are based on the call it uses when establishing its territory and trying to entice a female to the nest.
The middle section is the alarm call used when it thinks there is a predator about.
All the calls are incredibly loud given it’s diminutive size.
Interestingly the Wren is highly polygynous, having up to 4 females with active nests at the same time.

#076 Troglodytes Troglodytes

An improvisation based on the chords of My Funny Valentine.
GeoShred is used to play not only Ravenscroft 275 but also, via multiple Rozeta Scalers to manipulate the notes, 2 * Roli Noise.
Effects - TB Reverb and FAC Alteza.
One take, no edits… hence the mistake(s)!

There is a YouTube video of a slightly different version here …
